Cole Hutson I will play for the national NCAA 2025 championship after helping the University of Boston at the bottom of Penn State 3-1 in the Frozen Four Thursday evening. The burrows will play western Michigan for the Championship at the Enterprise Center in St. Louis, Missouri on Saturday.
Hutson, a second round choice in 2024 of Washington’s capital, added to his incredible first year season by helping the possible winning match of the match, a strike from the Icelanders in New York, Cole Einerman. The 18-year-old defender made a skillful trip around a front lashing in the BU zone to start a 2 rush against 1 with EIERMAN before finally slipping a perfect flow for the sniper to put the 2-0 burrows in the second period.
Hutson now has seven points (2G, 5A) in his three NCAA tournament games for burrows this year. The clutch assistance also gives him 47 points (14g, 33a) in 38 games in total this season.
The native of Saint-Louis also led to a minor penalty of two minutes on Reese Laubach de Penn State with 51 seconds of the regulations to seal the victory of his team.
“It was fun,” Hutson told Espn after the match. “They play hard. These are a very fast team. I think it was one of our best games of the year, and our team found a way.
“We had a big game tomorrow (Saturday), and I hope that we can bring him home. Honestly, I’m getting chills right now to think about it.”
The seven points of Hutson in his first three NCAA tournament games are already more than her older brother, Lane Hutson, made for burrows during her university career. According to BU Hockey Stats, Lane recorded only four points in six tournament games. The Montreal Canadiens defender leads all NHL recruits by scoring this year with 64 points (6G, 58A) in 78 games.
The burrows won five titles in the past, with their latest arrival in 2009 against the Miami Redhawks (OH). BU won 4-3 in overtime at the Verizon Center then at Washington DC, with the future defender of the capital, Kevin Shattenkirk, providing the main assistance on the winning goal of Colby Cohen.
