Shannon Bowman '09 began her Dartmouth hockey career with a pair of goals as the women's team managed to hang on and win its home opener 4-3 against an opportunistic Boston University squad.
Dartmouth dominated play for most of the game, as evidenced by their overwhelming 44-13 shots on goal margin, but the Terriers perservered, and, with a couple of third-period goals, made the last couple of minutes of the third period very interesting.
Showing no signs of first-period home-opener jitters, the Big Green jumped on BU from the opening whistle, firing three shots on goal in the first four minutes.
Despite controlling the puck in the offensive zone almost continually to begin the game, Dartmouth nearly fell behind 1-0.
