In their weekend series opener at the Walter Brown Arena, the Boston University women\u2019s hockey team suffered a 0-3 shutout against the University of Maine Friday night.<\/p>\n

A quiet first period, seemingly controlled by the Terriers, was met with a dominating performance by the UMaine Black Bears in the middle period. Capitalizing on an interference call that left the Terriers short-handed, UMaine\u2019s Lilli Welcke put the first goal on the board at 3:34 off assists from Mira Sereg\u00e9ly and her sister Luisa Welcke. The second goal came later in the second period from UMaine\u2019s Alyssa Ruble off an assist from Mira Sereg\u00e9ly.<\/p>\n

Late in the second period, BU had an impressive defensive performance shutting down a 5-3 power play that the Black Bears were unable to capitalize on.<\/p>\n

Despite two power play opportunities and a 10-7 shot advantage in the third, the Terriers were unable to mount a comeback. Lilli Welcke celebrated a two-goal night with an unassisted empty netter with 4.1 seconds of play remaining.<\/p>\n

UMaine goaltender Brooklyn Oakes ended the night with a 19-save shutout. Andrea Br\u00e4ndli was in net for the Terriers and recorded 25 saves.<\/p>\n
