Postgame Comments: Carson-Banister, Wilson, Polley | Polley TURNING POINT Bryant scored three goals in the third quarter to cut the Terriers' lead to 6-5 entering the final 15 minutes, but BU scored four of the next five goals to never relinquish its advantage and take a 10-6 lead midway through the quarter. Junior Joe Stucky went 7-of-11 at the faceoff X in the fourth quarter and BU earned 11 ground balls to just six for Bryant in that frame. HOW IT HAPPENED BU opened up a 4-0 lead with 5:54 left in the first quarter thanks to consecutive goals from Hilburn. Dearth started the scoring less than 2:00 into the contest before sophomore James Burr added to the lead. Hilburn's run of two straight strikes began with a man-up goal. Bryant got a goal back to make it a 4-1 Terrier lead after 15 minutes, but senior Christian Carson-Banister was brilliant in the opening quarter. He made seven stops in that stanza to help BU build its advantage. Junior Greg Farris extended the lead to 5-1 with 8:50 remaining, and after a Bryant goal, junior Jack Wilson got the Terriers a 6-2 halftime lead with 1:35 to play in the second quarter. The Bulldogs scored the only three goals of the third quarter to cut the Terrier lead to 6-5, though a big save by Carson-Banister at the end of the period kept BU ahead entering the final 15 minutes. Two goals in 20 seconds gave BU an 8-5 lead with 10:41 to play. Burr scored his second of the game off a great feed from Dearth before Wilson notched his second goal of the night in transition off a Bryant miscue. Bryant cut the lead to 8-6, but sophomore Drew Lukacs responded by collecting the ground ball on the ensuing faceoff and taking it himself for his second goal of the season. Wilson then made it 10-6 when BU backed up a shot and cleared it immediately with a long pass to Hilburn, who set up Wilson. Senior Jack Beall made perhaps the play of the game to give BU an 11-7 lead. He single-handedly caused a turnover, ran to the other end of the field and fed Dearth for the goal. Sophomore Thomas Schmidt scored his first collegiate goal late in the fourth to help seal the 12-9 score line, with Bryant adding two late tallies. GAME NOTES Wilson extended his point streak to 31 games thanks to his three-goal day. This win continues the best start in program history for BU, which finished February 5-0.

Beall also caused two turnovers and added a pair of ground balls. Burr finished with three points, adding an assist to his two goals. Stucky earned the first point of his collegiate career with an assist on Schmidt's goal. The Terriers went 16-of-17 on clears and turned the ball over just 10 times while forcing seven of Bryant's 12 turnovers.
