The No. 11 Boston University men’s hockey team’s starting goaltender competition may have a clear leader, but when the Terriers take the ice Friday against the University of Vermont it will be the “other” goalie in net.
Freshman Sean Maguire will make his third start of the season for the Terriers (5–3, 4–2 Hockey East) against the Catamounts (1–3–2, 1–3–2 Hockey East) at 7 p.m. at Gutterson Fieldhouse.
“Matt has established himself as one, maybe Sean has established himself as 1A,” said BU head coach Jack Parker. “[Maguire] has looked much sharper [of late]. His last outing he looked much sharper and he has looked much sharper in practice. I am very pleased with his progress.”
While O’Connor will start Sunday — a 1 p.m. matchup with No. 5/6 University of New Hampshire at Agganis Arena — Parker said the rookies trading off is not a given anymore.
