Michigan State, Boston University play to weekend series split

No. 2 Michigan State hockey was locked into a big time weekend series with No. 15 Boston University inside of Munn Ice Arena in East Lansing. It was a pivotal series for two teams with national championship aspirations to try and establish themselves as major players within the sport. In game one, it was all Boston University, who dominated the Spartans, 6-2. In game two, though, it was the Spartans turn to give the Terriers the business. Michigan State would earn a 5-0 win, giving goaltender Joshua Ravensbergen his first career collegiate shutout. Following the weekend, the Spartans now sit at 6-2, and are battle tested for the Big Ten season that looms ahead. That schedule will start next weekend with Michigan State traveling to South Bend for a weekend series with Notre Dame. Michigan State will continue their build to being a major player in the national landscape, and a strong weekend series with a team like Boston University will go a long way come March.
