University of Connecticut and Boston University athletics

Overview

The University of Connecticut (UConn) and Boston University are engaged in several athletic competitions across multiple sports.

In football, UConn is scheduled to host UMass at Pratt & Whitney Stadium at Rentschler Field on October 23. UConn is favored by 14.5 points in this matchup, which continues a rivalry series currently tied at 38-38-2.

In men’s ice hockey, No. 16 UConn secured a 5-4 overtime victory against No. 15 Boston University. Joey Muldowney scored the decisive overtime goal, while goaltender Kam Hendrickson made 46 saves to lead the Huskies to the win.

In women’s ice hockey, No. 14 Yale defeated Boston University 3-2. Despite goals from Peyton Blaney and Lo Lachapelle, the Terriers were unable to overcome a late third-period goal by the Bulldogs; BU goaltender Sydney Fogu made 34 saves.

Additionally, the Boston University field hockey team is concluding its home schedule at New Balance Field. The team, currently holding a 6-8 record, will host Colgate on October 23 and Northeastern on October 25 for Senior Day. A win against Colgate, or a Holy Cross loss to American, would secure a Patriot League tournament berth for the Terriers. Key players for BU include sophomore Lucy Johnson, the Patriot League leader in points and goals, and graduate student Caroline O'Brien, who is on a five-game point streak.
