Nothing got by BU's netminder, Lisa Whitcomb, though, as memories of her 40-save shutout two weeks ago seemed fresh in both teams' minds. At one point midway through the first period, Crimson co-captain Firkins Reed won four face-offs in a row, each time getting the puck back to winger Dianne Hurley, but Whitcomb was ready all four times...
