The Terriers, who moved to 6-0-4 after tying Merrimack College in successive nights last weekend, dropped to No. 2 in both the USCHO.com and USA Today/USA Hockey Magazine polls and were usurped by University of Minnesota-Duluth, which swept its own weekend pair with Michigan Technological University to improve to 9-1-2, in both polls. BU had moved up to the top spot in the country just last week for the first time since the conclusion of the 2008-09 national championship.
