Princeton Edges Clarkson, 2-1
Princeton earned its fourth win of the season, and fourth at home, by besting ECAC rival Clarkson, 2-1, on Friday night at Hobey Baker Rink.
Adam Kesselman tied the game in the second period for the Tigers (4-17-2 overall, 2-14-1 ECAC), after the visiting Golden Knights (11-14-14, 8-7-2 ECAC) had taken a 1-0 lead in the opening 20 minutes on Terrance Amorosa's first career goal.
Tucker Brockett notched the game-winner just over seven minutes into the final stanza to make a 28-save effort by Colton Phinney stand up.

BC Falls in Women's Beanpot Final
Boston College's perfect women's hockey season is no more.
The No. 1 Eagles (27-1-1 overall) dropped a 3-2 decision to Harvard on Tuesday night in the 2015 Beanpot Tournament championship game at Bright Hockey Center in Cambridge.
Miye D'Oench scored the winning goal on a second-period power play for the Crimson (19-4-2), and Emerance Maschmeyer earned Beanpot MVP accolades with a 30-save effort as BC outshot Harvard, 32-17. The loss also prevented BC from winning its third consecutive Beanpot title.
No. 7 Boston University edged Northeastern, 3-1, in the consolation game.

Beanpot Postponed to Feb. 23
Mother Nature doesn't seem to like college hockey this season, or at least not in New England.
The Beanpot Tournament consolation game and championship scheduled for tonight at TD Garden have been postponed to Feb. 23 due to an(other) snowstorm in the Boston area.
No. 11 Boston College will meet No. 6 Harvard in the consolation in two weeks' time, while No. 3 Boston University and Northeastern will vie for this year's men's title. BU last won in 2009, NU in 1988.
The Women's Beanpot Tournament is still tentatively scheduled for tomorrow at Bright Hockey Center in Cambridge, with No. 6 BU meeting NU in the consolation contest and No. 1 BC facing No. 4 Harvard in the title tilt. BC is seeking its third consecutive Beanpot crown.
MSU Falls in Hockey City Classic
No. 14 Michigan raced out to a 3-0 lead after two periods, and held on to top Big Ten opponent Michigan State, 4-1, at the third annual Hockey City Classic at Soldier Field in Chicago on Saturday night. Face-off was delayed nearly two hours due to weather and ice conditions.
Matt DeBlouw scored MSU's lone goal, while Jake Hildebrand made 33 saves for the Spartans. Michael Downing had a goal and an assist for the Wolverines, who got 31 stops from Zach Nagelvoort.
In the early game at Soldier Field on Saturday, Miami held on to outlast NCHC and former CCHA rival Western Michigan, 4-3, after the Red Hawks skated to a 4-0 lead after 40 minutes.

BC's Beanpot Streak Ends at Five
There will be no Beanpot six-pack for the Boston College men's hockey team. Dustin Darou's wrist shot with 1:34 remaining in regulation made it past a screened Thatcher Demko (20 saves) to lift Northeastern to a 3-2 win over No. 11 BC in the second Beanpot Tournament semifinal on Monday night at TD Garden.
The Huskies will make it an all-canine Hockey East contest next Monday night, when they face No. 3 Boston University. The Terriers edged No. 6 Harvard, 4-3, in double overtime in the first semifinal on a Danny O'Regan goal just 2:18 into the second extra session, on BU's 67th shot on goal. BU will be seeking its record 30th Beanpot crown, and first since 2009, while four-time winner Northeastern hasn't celebrated on Causeway Street in February since 1988.
Prior to that, BC, which had won every Beanpot since 2010, will meet Harvard in the consolation game, which could have a major effect on the Pairwise rankings regarding the NCAA Tournament selection. The Crimson and Eagles sit just one spot apart at present, in 11th and 12th place, respectively. Harvard won at BC, 6-3, back in November.
The women's Beanpot will be a reversed field next Tuesday, with No. 1 BC and No. 4 Harvard meeting for the trophy at Bright Hockey Center in Cambridge. BC ousted Northeastern, 3-1, last night, with Haley Skarupa notching the game-winner midway through the third period. The Eagles will seek their third straight title next week against No. 4 Harvard, which blasted No. 6 BU, 9-2, behind two goals apiece from Hillary Crowe and Jessica Parker.

2015 Beanpot Begins Tonight
Not crazy about New England following Super Bowl XLIX (diehard Seahawks fan since I was 8), but it's Beanpot Tuesday in Boston.
Monday's annual first-round games at TD Garden were postponed by snow. No. 6 Harvard will now face No. 3 Boston University at 5 p.m. this evening, while Northeastern and No. 11 Boston College will follow at 8 p.m. on Causeway Street.
The winners will advance to next Monday's championship game, barring any future inclement weather developments. BC has won the last five men's Beanpot titles.
The 2015 Women's Beanpot also begins tonight at Bright Hockey Center at Harvard with the same interschool matchups. No. 1 BC, the defending champion, will square off with Northeastern at 5 p.m., followed by the No. 4 host Crimson against No. 6 BU at 8 p.m. The victors will advance to next week's title tilt in Cambridge.

Army at Princeton Rescheduled for Today
Princeton’s non-conference contest against Army last night
at Baker Rink was postponed following a semi-persistent snowfall from Sunday through Monday
in New Jersey.
The game, which would have been Princeton’s
first following its annual winter exam break, will instead be made up tonight
at 5:30 p.m. The Tigers last played the Black Knights almost 16 years to the day,
a 4-1 Princeton win at Army’s Tate Rink on
Jan. 26, 1999. Princeton also leads the all-time
series, 43-18-2.
The Tigers (2-14-1 overall, 1-11-0 ECAC) will return to league
action on Friday at Yale and on Saturday at Brown. Army (5-16-2 overall, 5-13-2
Atlantic Hockey) will spend the weekend playing a pair at league opponent RIT.
