...Eagles comes into the third annual women's Beanpot at the Boston Arena (game time: 8 p.m.; student tickets: $1) with a solid 11-6 ledger including an impressive 2-1 triumph over Northeastern two weeks ago. Back in December, Kate O'leary's skaters upended Harvard, 3-1, behind acrobatic goalie Peggy Cameron's 27 saves...
Cameron, whose 2.41 goals allowed pergame average is one of the lowest in the league, makes B.C. a threat in any game, particularly the emotion-filled Beanpot.

With one minute left in the Beanpot final Monday night, it looked like NEIL SHEEHY'S streak of scoring a goal on his birthday during each of the last four years was coming to a close. Sheehy, who had made several fine plays on defense during the course of the evening, had unleashed at least one slapshot at B.C. goalie Bob O'Connor, but, like everyone else, had been stymied by the aerobatic sophomore. But with Boston College losing, 2-0, and no goalie in the nets, Sheehy suddenly found himself all alone on a breakaway. He took his time...
