The Merrimack College Warriors may have suffered a shocking and heartbreaking loss to end their season on Saturday, but let us not forget that their season was one for the books. The Warriors in 2010-11 were quite simply the best in team in the school's history. Merrimack was able to set new school records in home wins, road wins, and sellouts. Rather than dwelling on the unfortunate end to the Warriors’ season, let’s take a look at the team’s best home wins and sellouts. After all, a packed Lawler Arena seemed to do a number on tough opposition from Boston College, Boston University, UNH, and Maine.

Merrimack College came into the 2010-11 campaign having never been ranked nationally in school history but after Tuesday’s 3-2 win over Boston University, the Warriors can expect to be ranked for the eighth consecutive week. The win was Merrimack’s sixth straight and 11th in its last 13. The Warriors sit proudly at #13 in the nation in USCHO's poll and #14 in USA Today's.

Merrimack College let a two goal third period lead slip away to the nation's top ranked team, the Boston University Terriers, on Saturday at Lawler Arena. Down 3-1 entering the third, B.U. scored two unanswered goals to come back and tie the Warriors 3-3 in a Hockey East Association matchup. Following a 1-1 tie on Friday night, the Warriors looked to upend the Terriers and deliver them their first loss of the season but line mates Chris Connolly and Corey Trivino each beat Merrimack goalie Joe Cannata in the third to even the score. "Polls are polls but we just played the number one team in the country twice and they haven't beaten us," said Merrimack head coach Mark Dennehy whose squad now sits at 2-2-4 on the season.
