Twenty Years Ago Today in Albany ...


... Boston College beats North Dakota, 3-2, for its first NCAA championship in 52 years, on an overtime goal by Krys Kolanos. 

UND ties the game with two extra-attacker tallies in the final two minutes, but Kolanos breaks in from the left side, cuts across the crease, and then tucks the puck under Karl Goehring's glove 4:43 into sudden death to give the Eagles their first national title since 1949. Chuck Kobasew and Tony Voice assist on the winning goal at the Times Union Center in upstate new York.

Scott Clemmensen makes 34 saves for the win in his collegiate finale as BC's senior class finally breaks through after three consecutive Frozen Four disappointments.
