BOSTON – The Northeastern women's hockey team (12-10-3, 8-7-2 WHEA) overturned a two-goal deficit to take a third-period lead, but had to settle for a tie as Boston University's Victoria Bach evened the score in the final seconds of regulation in a 3-3 final on Tuesday night at Matthews Arena.

Junior Kasidy Anderson extended her point-streak to five straight games with a goal in the second period, before strikes from freshman Veronika Pettey and senior Denisa Krizova gave the Huskies a 3-2 lead late in the third.

Northeastern came within 3.3 seconds of earning its first-ever regular-season sweep over the Terriers (8-13-5, 4-10-4 WHEA) in the Hockey East era before Bach leveled the score with her third goal of the game to earn a share of the spoils for the visitors.

Freshman Aerin Frankel stopped 26 shots, while BU's Corinne Schroeder made 37 saves as the Huskies enjoyed a 40-29 shot advantage.
