It’s the #CollegeHockey Scoreboard Show for February 22, 2025. I’m out of the rinks for the rest of the hockey season, but the show rolls on. We’ve got conference races that are just bonkers and a pair of tournaments firing up on the women’s side. No breakdowns. No Analysis. It’s JUST. THE. SCORES.
We’ll begin on the men’s side where Penn State stayed hot. The No. 18 Nittany Lions built a 3-0 lead and held off top-ranked Michigan State 3-2, with Aiden Fink scoring his 23rd of the season, tying for the national lead in points with 45. The Nittany Lions took four of six points on the weekend.
Andre Gasseau netted two goals as No. 2 Boston College extended its lead in Hockey East to five points over Maine with a 4-1 win over Vermont. Iiro Hakkarainen’s overtime winner gave No. 3 Western Michigan a 4-3 victory over No. 12 Arizona State, pushing the Broncos three points ahead of ASU in the NCHC.
No. 5 Minnesota overtook first place in the Big Ten with a 6-3 win over No. 7 Ohio State at Mariucci, as Connor Kurth scored twice and the Gophers outshot the Buckeyes 40-19. No. 6 Denver got goals from five different players in a 5-2 win over Miami to complete the weekend sweep.
No. 8 Providence’s Nick Poisson recorded a hat trick in a 4-2 win over No. 13 UMass Lowell, keeping the Friars one point ahead of the River Hawks in Hockey East as UMass Lowell dropped five of its last seven.
No. 9 Boston University had three different players score and Mikhail Yegorov made 28 saves in a 3-1 win over Northeastern. Dylan Silverstein and Noah Altman combined for a shutout as No. 14 Quinnipiac blanked Brown 4-0, keeping its ECAC lead at four points.
No. 15 Minnesota State fell behind early but scored four unanswered to top Lake Superior State 4-1, with Josh Groll and Rhett Pitlick each netting their 13th goal of the year. No. 16 UMass got a goal from Cole O’Hara—his 18th of the year—to improve to 17-12-3 and move to 12th in the Pairwise rankings, though the Minutemen remain tied for seventh in Hockey East. No. 17 North Dakota dominated Minnesota-Duluth 6-1 behind two goals each from Sacha Boisvert and Cameron Berg, marking the Fighting Hawks’ eighth straight win over the Bulldogs.
No. 19 Clarkson stormed out to a 5-1 lead before settling for a 5-3 win at Colgate, as Ayrton Martino netted his 21st of the season to stay fourth nationally in goals. St. Cloud State snapped an 11-game winless streak by jumping ahead 3-0 en route to a 4-2 win over No. 20 Colorado College, with Barrett Hall recording his first career multi-goal game.
Air Force and Robert Morris tied 3-3 before Air Force won the shootout, Army West Point edged American International 3-2 in overtime, and Sacred Heart forced a first-place tie with Holy Cross in Atlantic Hockey after a 2-0 win over Bentley, which now sits two points back in third. Canisius dominated Niagara 6-2, RIT doubled up Mercyhurst 6-3. In the Big Ten, Notre Dame handled Wisconsin 6-1.
In the CCHA, Bemidji State outlasted Bowling Green 2-1 in overtime, Ferris State edged Michigan Tech 3-2, and St. Thomas slipped past Northern Michigan 4-3. Harvard edged RPI 3-2, Cornell shut out St. Lawrence 6-0, Dartmouth nipped Union 2-1, and Princeton took the shootout after a 2-2 tie with Yale.
In non-conference play, Alaska downed Augustana 5-3, and Bryant Marks stopped 22 shots for his first collegiate shutout as Alaska-Anchorage snapped an eight-game winless streak with a 1-0 win over Lindenwood to close its season on a high note. Stonehill outlasted LIU 2-1 in overtime.
On the women’s side, we’ll begin with tournament action:
In the ECAC Women’s First Round, No. 10 Quinnipiac scored twice in the first period and skated past Harvard 2-0, with Maya Labad netting her 14th goal of the season. Sixth-seeded Yale got goals from four different players to eliminate 11th-seeded Dartmouth 4-1, while ni
