San Diego’s Thatcher Demko holds aloft his second Beanpot in three years.

BC men’s hockey team, ranked #3 nationally, won its sixth Beanpot title in the last seven years, and 20th title overall, with a 1-0 overtime win over #7 Boston University last night. Sophomore Alex Tuch scored the game’s only goal 1:57 into overtime.

It seems unlikely, considering the number of games (256) played in the 64-year history of the Beanpot, but the 2016 championship was the first Beanpot game ever to go 1-0. Perhaps even more unlikely, it was also only the second game ever between BC and BU to finish 1-0, the other being another Eagles win in 2006 at BU.

The Eagles outshot the Terriers 42-30 for the game, including a dominant 23-12 edge in the first period. BU goalie Sean Maguire had 41 saves and won the tournament awards for best goalie and most outstanding player overall. Arguably, since he had the shutout, BC’s goalie Thatcher Demko deserved at least a share of the award. It was, indeed, Demko’s 9th shutout of the season, setting a new single-season standard for BC.

BC won the Beanpot each year 2010-2014, including a 3-2 overtime win against BU in 2012.

A winter storm in Boston yesterday put some doubt into whether the game would take place. The storm may have played a role in the loss of some lighting at the TD Garden during the first period, which caused a 29-minute suspension of the game.

BC’s record goes to 20-4-4 (11-1-4).

Red Sox-Yankees. Celtics-Lakers. Bruins-Canadiens. BC-BU.

San Diego’s own Thatcher Demko has been stellar in the net for the Eagles.

For the 22d time, the Eagles and Terriers will meet for the Beanpot Championship, Monday, February 8, 4:30 pm PT. Join San Diego Eagles for a game watch at The Beer Co., 602 Broadway, San Diego.

BC, #1 in Hockey East and ranked #4 nationally, reached this year’s final with a 3-2 win yesterday over #7 Harvard. The Eagles fell behind 2-1 in the first period, but scored 2 power play goals in the second for the win.

The victory put BC in the finals for the 35th time in 64 Beanpots. And it was win number 1,001 for Coach Jerry York.

Since 1993, either Boston College or BU has won the Beanpot crown. BC took 9 of those titles, including 5 straight, 2010-14. BU is ranked #9 nationally this year.

The #1 BC women’s hockey team is also in the Beanpot final, which will be played Tuesday, February 9. The Eagles beat Harvard in today’s opening round, 8-0. Harvard had been BC’s nemesis last season, beating the Eagles in the Beanpot final and in the Frozen Four. Sweet revenge. BC will play the winner of BU-Northeastern.
