Tommorow night, BC takes on Umass Amherst at Conte Fourm at 7. This will be Boston College's last game before the Beanpot on Monday vs archrival BU. Umass enters the game with a 5-8-4 record in Hockey East and 6-13-4 record overall. BC swept the season series vs Umass last year, including a sweep in the first round of the Hockey East tournament last year. It's been a lower the average year for Toot Cahoon and the mintuemen. Last year they lost the core of their team, losing star forward James Marcou, Defensemen Chris Wellmen, and Justin Braun. This year the mintuemen are led by forwards T.J. Synder, Mike Pereria,and Danny Hobbs. Yes Umass is having a season they want to forget, but they have one of the best goalies in Hockey East in goalie Paul Dainton. Dainton comes in with a 2.44 GAA which is 5th in Hockey East. This is the first meeting of the year between Umass and BC. BC leads the all time series vs Umass 44-10-3. Coach York is 41-9-3 vs Umass.
