Standout performances at the Beanpot championship helped vault two Boston College Eagles to the top of the list in this week’s NCAA Women’s Hockey stars of the week.
1) Katie Burt, Boston College
The Lynn, Mass. native went 3-0-0 on the week with three 30-or-more save games. She posted 35 saves in the overtime win over Boston University in the championship of the Beanpot, including three saves on 1-on-1 breakaways in the first 22 minutes of the game and then eight saves in overtime. The senior netminder then made 30 saves in the 5-0 road shutout at No. 10 Maine on Friday, her fourth of the season, which included 12 saves in the third period. She stopped 30 shots at No. 10 Maine in the 3-1 win on Saturday, including another 12 saves in the third period. Burt won the Bertagna Award as the Beanpot's best goaltender. For the week, she had a .960 save percentage and a 1.23 GAA in three games.
2) Daryl Watts, Boston College
The freshman phenom’s seven points (3G, 4A) led all players this week, as did her 1.00 goals-per game, 2.33 points-per game and +7 marks. The Toronto, Ontario native was the Beanpot MVP after her two-goal effort in the final, including the game-tying goal late in the third period that sent the game to OT where BC prevailed. On Friday at Maine in the 5-0 win, she scored one goal and added two assists. On Saturday, she set up Caitrin Lonergan's game-winning goal -- her 55th point in league play this year, tying former Northeastern standout Kendall Coyne's single-season record.
