Vermont led twice, but No. 4 Northeastern scored twice in the third period to secure a 4-2 win in Burlington. The Catamounts got goals from Kaylee Lewis and Zoe Charland, while Tara Bach made 37 saves.

By the Numbers
  • Final score: Vermont 2, Northeastern 4.
  • Northeastern outscored Vermont 2-0 in the third period.
  • Bach made 37 saves; she totaled 73 across the two-game series.
  • Vermont killed all 3 Northeastern power plays and scored on the power play for the third straight game.
Yes, But

Vermont generated offense against one of the nation’s top teams and capitalized on the power play, but Northeastern’s third-period push proved decisive. A late shot by Lauren O’Hara appeared to cross the goal line, but officials ruled it no goal after review.

What’s Next

Vermont heads to New Hampshire for a two-game series, beginning Thursday, Nov. 12, at 6 p.m. Both games will air on ESPN+.

Bottom Line

Vermont showed it can challenge an elite opponent, but converting that effort into a result will depend on closing out tight games—especially in the third period.
