The Boston College Eagles women's ice hockey team represent Boston College in the NCAA and participate in Hockey East. The Eagles are coached by former Olympic gold medalist Katie King-Crowley and play their home games at Conte Forum.

History[]

The team traces its' on campus origins to an open practice September 19, 1973. The initial sessions were informal and slightly chaotic as the team only had a couple of true ice hockey players and was made up of many figure skaters and field hockey players. The team would not get to play until its second season. The team actually developed in the head of Reenie Baker on March 10, 1973, while sitting in the Boston Garden for the 1973 ECAC Hockey Men's Ice Hockey Tournament championship game between the Boston College Eagles and Cornell Big Red. Baker was the person who tried to get the women's team going and continued in her efforts to get varsity status for the women's program. She was the daughter of a professor at Cornell University who was a hockey fan and encouraged each of his children to get out and play hockey on the frozen pond near their home. In her junior year of high school, Cornell started a women's team, which was started by her sister Reggie and she had a goal of starting a team at BC.

On April 24, 2007, Tom Mutch resigned as head coach of the women's ice hockey program. The resignation came in the wake of an inappropriate relationship with Kelli Stack, a freshman who was the Hockey East Player and Rookie of the Year.[1] The Boston Herald had printed an article earlier that day that detailed the alleged explicit texts that occurred between the married Tom Mutch and Stack. Mutch was forced to resign. Though a sexual relationship was never proven, the messages were said to be "filthy" by news reports at the time.[2]

October 2010: Taylor Wasylk scored a goal and assisted on Kelli Stack’s goal as the Eagles tied Quinnipiac 3-3. Against Brown, she scored twice as the Eagles prevailed by a 5-2 mark. She fired 13 shots on goal in the two contests and earned a +6 plus/minus rating. For her efforts, she was recognized as Hockey East Rookie of the Week for the third consecutive week. Wasylk's honor marks the first time in Boston College Eagles women's ice hockey history that a player has won a league award for three consecutive weeks.[3] Kelli Stack finished October 2010 with fifteen points (nine goals, six assists) in eight games for Boston College. Stack started every game at center and has accumulated points in every game. She finished the month leading the Eagles in points, goals, power play goals, and shorthanded goals. On October 31, she was involved in all three goals against Connecticut (one goal, two assists). She was part of all three goals scored at Vermont on October 15 (two goals, one assist). Against the Syracuse Orange (on October 9), Stack scored a hat trick. For her efforts, she was the October 2010 Hockey East Player of the Month.[4]

On February 8, 2011, with two points in the game against Boston University in the first round of the 2011 Beanpot Tournament, Kelli Stack accumulated 199 points in her career and broke BC's all-time career points record, becoming the new program leader. On March 6, 2011, the Eagles beat the Northeastern Huskies by a 3-1 tally to claim their first Hockey East Tournament championship.

During the 2014-15 season, the Eagles returned to the NCAA Frozen Four. In addition, Alex Carpenter became the first Boston College player to win the Patty Kazmaier Award. Statistically, she accumulated 81 points during the season, scoring 37 goals and registering 44 assists.

Daryl Watts would follow Carpenter as the second Patty Kazmaier Award winner in Eagles history, capturing the prize in 2018. Watts’ end-to-end shorthanded goal against the University of New Hampshire was also recognized among the BC Eagles Athletics’ Top 10 Plays of the 2017-18 season, placing second.[5] Winning both the Hockey East Player and Rookie of the Year Awards, she became only the second player in conference history to do so, tying a mark set by former Boston College player Kelli Stack in 2006.[6]
