BC 24, UMass 14

CHESTNUT HILL -- Trailing 17-0 at the half, UMass made a charge in the third quarter -- scoring two touchdowns to cut the deficit to three. But that was the closest the Minutemen would get, as the Eagles answered back with a long touchdown drive, bringing the score to 24-14.

UMass QB Liam Coen was injured early in the fourth quarter. He limped off with a left knee injury, the same knee he hurt earlier in the season. Backup signal-caller Scott Woodward replaced him and looked sharp.

Be sure to check out Monday's issue of the Daily Collegian for more in-depth coverage of the matchup between BC and UMass.

UMass missed on a 46-yard field goal attempt, maintaining the BC lead to two-scores. The last eight or so minutes of the fourth quarter went without any scoring.
