In a game where the result can turn on a dime and turnovers happen at the drop of a hat, it’s all about rebounding. Whether it’s a simple change of possession, a second-chance shot, or the comeback from a career-threatening injury, Boston College field hockey is no stranger to bouncing back. Mired in a three-game…
Despite dominating the game for three quarters and building a two-goal lead, BC broke down in the final 15 minutes and gave up back-to-back goals before eventually falling in overtime.
Lucy Lytle found the back of the cage 25 seconds in, and BC never looked back, bouncing back from Friday night’s loss to UNC with a five-goal victory against the visiting Minutewomen.
Sky Caron tied the game with just 4.8 seconds left to play on a penalty shot, but 12 minutes into the second overtime period Kirsten Mansfield slipped a shot past Jonna Kennedy to give Northwestern the victory.
