Senior co-captain Joe Pereira has signed an amateur tryout contract with the AHL Worcester Shark. He found a few familiar faces—and fellow Terriers captains--there in John McCarthy and Sean Sullivan. Last night, he made his first start in a 5-4 overtime win in Portland in which McCarthy assisted on a game-tying goal late in the third and then scored the OT winner.

Looking back
Kevin Shattenkirk scored his first goal since being traded from Colorado in St. Louis’s 2-1 loss to Phoenix.

Zach Cohen assisted on the game-winning goal in Lake Erie’s 2-1 win over Rochester. Dave Van der Gulik also picked up an assist.

Looking ahead
2011 recruit Alexx Privitera was interviewed on WLCS Radio’s weekly Breaking out the Lumberjacks program (podcast). Priviterra has 32 points on the season and is tied for the lead among USHL defensemen. He was joined on the interview by his Muskegon teammate Charlie Taft, who reportedly is being recruited by BU. Taft set a franchise record for points in a game—five—last Friday with a hat trick and two assists in a 5-0 win over Cedar Rapids. Taft’s sister, Jenny, played lacrosse for BU, graduating in 2009.

Women’s team
Terriers were ranked second in the final USCHO poll, moving up from fifth. It’s the highest final ranking for BU in program history.

Backup goalie Braly Hiller penned her thoughts about BU’s first appearance in the Frozen Four for SouthCoastToday.com.
