Boston, MA (Jan. 11, 2025) --- The UMass Boston Beacons women's ice hockey team fought back from two goals down to tie it up and force overtime against the Seahawks of Salve Regina but ultimately fell 3-2 in NEHC action. 
 

How it Happened 

The Seahawks' Emily Wroblewski scored two unassisted goals, one early and one late in the first period, to give the away team the 2-0 lead heading into the 2nd frame. The second period was all Beacons starting with Emily Hansen scoring her own unassisted goal less than 30 seconds in. Cassidy Morrison, assisted by Margeaux Butters and Erin Duffy, would bring the game even at 2.
