Boston College’s Teddy Doherty scored his first career game-winning goal and added two assists against RIT on Saturday night. As a result, he was awarded this week’s Hockey East Defensive Player of the Week honors.
This is only the second time the junior defenseman has recorded three points in a game, with the first time coming during his freshman year against UMass-Lowell.
Doherty was also a plus-four in the game against RIT, which Boston College won, 6-2.
