If you wanted to see Hockey East get a little tighter, your wish came true on Friday as No. 14 UMass Lowell, behind 23 saves from Tyler Wall pulled a road upset of No. 4 Boston College, 3-2.<\/p>\n

Lowell pulls into a tie with BC and Maine for second place in Hockey East, two points behind first place UMass, a 3-1 winner over Providence on Friday.<\/p>\n

Boston College struck first on a shorthanded goal by Alex Newhook in the second. But Lowell responded with a power play tally by Carl Berglund, his team-leading 11th, and Kenny Hausinger. Those two goals gave the River Hawks the lead heading to the third.<\/p>\n

Ben Finkelstein evened the game on the power play just 54 second into the third. But Marek Korencik’s first collegiate goal with 9:09 remaining broke the tie.<\/p>\n
