With the dominant performances, Boston College ranked at the top of the KANE Women’s Division I Media Poll and the IWLCA Division I Coaches Poll. Both rankings had the same top five after opening weekend for most schools. Northwestern is sitting at No. 2, followed by UNC at No. 3, Michigan at No. 4, and Florida caps off the top five.

BC and BU will mark the first time the two schools have faced off in the championship game of the men’s Beanpot title since 2016.

Coming out of the weekend, BC was first in the Hockey East standings and BU third. That puts the rivals on a collision course for another clash in next month’s tournament final.
