There is a rich history here,” Northeastern University women's hockey coach Dave Flint said. “The one thing that was crystal clear to me when I took the job in 2008 was how important the Beanpot was to this school and this program.

Tuesday night the opening games of the 2025 Beanpot got underway, setting the stage for what is sure to be an exciting final January 21.

The Huskies ran away with a 4-2 win over Boston College in the first round of the Women’s Beanpot in front of a record breaking crowd.

The announced attendance of 3,298 Matthews Arena was the largest crowd at a campus-site game in Women’s Beanpot history.
