Beating Syracuse on their home floor was always going to be a tall task for these Northeastern Huskies. The Orange’s home loss to Northeastern’s CAA foe Hofstra a week before showed that it was possible, however. And, to their credit, the Huskies looked the part for the vast majority of the game, pushing Syracuse to…
BOSTON — The more things change, the more they stay the same. Despite a long offseason, a radically different roster, and a Matthews Arena crowd that was as loud as I’d ever heard it, the Huskies’ season opener felt oh-so-familiar. They had the lead, gave it up, rallied, and had every chance to win a…
Back for their last season opener in the historic Matthews Arena, the Huskies pulled off a 3-2 win over the Rochester Institute of Technology Tigers. It was a close game fronted by Northeastern’s youthful yet dominating offense and RIT’s standout defense and penalty kill. A chirpy game made for a compelling battle between these two…
Northeastern hockey has called historic Matthews Arena home for nearly a century, but in just over two months, the building’s 115-year tenure of service will come to a close. That leaves the Huskies with 11 autumnal home games to imprint their final mark in the barn’s fabled legacy. In a 2025-26 season that will undoubtedly…

WILLIAMSBURG, VA — With the score tied, time winding down, and every corner of a raucous Kaplan Arena exploding in noise, Rashad King stood stoically at halfcourt with the ball on his hip. Eventually, King launched into a series of crossovers; with nine seconds on the game clock, he jolted left, evading an oncoming double…
BOSTON — Following a weekend sweep at home over Campbell and Stony Brook to improve their conference record to 7-7, Northeastern could not continue the momentum against the visiting Charleston Cougars, falling Thursday night by a score of 73-62.

BOSTON – So much for momentum. After a promising stretch where Northeastern won four of their previous five games and captured their first weekend sweep of the season over Vermont, the Huskies were hoping to continue the momentum in Hockey East action against Merrimack Saturday night. Despite a valiant late-game surge, the Huskies fell short,…
BOSTON, MA — With the toughest part of the CAA schedule behind them, Thursday marked a foot-in-the-ground opportunity for Northeastern to get back on track. Consecutive, brutal road losses at UNCW and Charleston a week ago dropped the Huskies to just 2-4 in-conference, an ugly record which eroded most of the good feeling they generated…
BOSTON — Tuesday night, when the doors separating each team’s respective locker rooms from the ice opened, Boston College and Northeastern University staged more than an ordinary hockey game. Taking part in the 46th edition of The Dunkin’ Women’s Beanpot, the two teams entered the ice beneath flashing lights and a roaring, record crowd as…
Beating the CAA preseason favorite in their own gym was always slated to be a tall task. Doing it without three of your better players was certainly going to be even tougher. College basketball doesn’t “schedule” losses in the same way the NBA does, but Northeastern’s defeat at TU Arena on Thursday night could be…
There have been so many storylines and narratives about the developments of the season for Northeastern’s women’s hockey, so much so that it can get hard to understand the standing of the team at the midway point. Luckily for you, I am here to run through what we have seen from the program and give…
Can you remember the last time Northeastern men’s basketball started 8-3? If you can’t, you’re not alone. That memory would be from 1985, when a Reggie Lewis-led Huskies team started 13-2 before rolling to an ECAC championship and an eventual NCAA Tournament berth. After a first-round loss at the hands of the Oklahoma Sooners, legendary…
BOSTON — There were 4.6 seconds on the clock as Colgate junior guard Kyle Carlesimo inbounded the ball to sophomore guard Jalen Cox in stride. The Raiders trailed by three points with no timeouts remaining, and had to go down the length of the floor to try to force overtime in a game in which…
BOSTON – After a disappointing 5-3 loss on Friday against UNH, Northeastern and goaltender Cameron Whitehead looked to bounce back just 24-hours later in a non-conference tilt against Brown.

The Huskies came into the game having won their last two contests, and were looking to inch closer to an even record on the season. The Wildcats on the other hand came into the matchup looking to continue…
BOSTON — There’s an old saying in sports: the best ability is availability. For a variety of reasons, Northeastern has been unable to harness that ability through the first eight games of their season. Extended absences for Masai Troutman, William Kermoury, and Alex Nwagha among others, had resulted in some incomplete performances even as the…
BOSTON – The energy in Matthews Arena was palpable from start to finish on Saturday night as Northeastern took down No. 3 Boston College in their most impressive display this season. Following Friday’s 3-0 shutout loss to BC, the Huskies came out hot on Saturday with three goals in the first period alone, ultimately leading…
BOSTON — As Cristophe Tellier buried the rebound past the diving reach of UNH goalie Jacob Whale, you could practically feel the weight lifted from Northeastern’s bench.

BOSTON – Northeastern freshman guard Ryan Williams scored a dazzling 21 points on 5-7 shooting from three-point range, as the Huskies dominated the Harvard Crimson, 78-56.

BOSTON — For the first time since March, Northeastern returned to the ice at Matthews Arena and cruised to a 4-0 exhibition game victory over the Durham West Jr. Lightning.
