It's a little late, but here's the weekly NCAA Round-up. All four teams with Flames prospects were in action twice on the weekend.

COLGATE:
The Raiders played two road games on the weekend. They lost 5-0 at Quinnipiac on Friday night. Harrison had no points, was a -2, and took one penalty. On Saturday, they travelled to Princeton and won 5-1. Harrison had a power play assist on Colgate's third goal.


MICHIGAN STATE:
The Spartans travelled to New Hampshire to play a two-game series against UNH. They won Friday's game 4-3 and lost Saturday's 5-2. DeBlouw had no points and no penalties in the two games.


BOSTON UNIVERSITY:
The Terriers travelled across town to take on Boston College on Friday night. BU won the game 5-3. Jack Eichel had one goal and was a +3. Hickey had 2 assists, including one on the game winner and finished the night +1. Hickey was named the third star in the game.

On Saturday, the Terriers hosted Connecticut. The game ended in a 4-4 tie. Eichel had 3 assists on the night. Hickey had no points, but finished the night with a +2.


PROVIDENCE:
The Friars played a home-and-home series with Merrimack on the weekend. Friday's game was at Providence and the Friars won 3-2. Gillies faced 27 shots. Both of Merrimack's goals were scored on the PP. Gilmour had no points. Jankowski had an assist on the GWG. Both Jankowski and Gilmour finished the game +1.

Saturday night, the teams met again at Merrimack. This one ended in a 1-0 Friars' loss. Gillies stopped 33 shots and was named the game's third star despite the loss. Needless to say, Jankowski and Gilmour had no points. Jankowski had a -1, and Gilmour was even.



The Season to Date:

Harrison: 3G/3A in 10 games played. He has 2 game winners and 2 power play goals. He now has one more point than he scored in 34 games last season.

Deblouw: 1G in 8 games played, but it was a GWG.

Hickey: 3A in 7 games played. +7 overall, but only 3 players on the team have minus ratings.

Jankowski: 1G/2A in 5 games played. Providence continues to be a low-scoring team, and the team leader only has 5 points.

Gilmour: 2A in 5 games played.

Gillies: 3-4-1 record so far this season. Has played all but 20 minutes of Providence's games this year. 2.57 GAA and 0.917 SV% are the worst of his college career so far. Has stopped 132 shots in his last 4 starts. Was named Hockey East defensive player of the week over the Halloween weekend. Low-scoring team in front of him has made wins hard to come by even if he has a strong game.


So far, Tim Harrison has been the breakout performer for the Flames NCAA prospects this season. Hickey appears to be having a strong freshman season too.



The Weekly polls have looked good for BU and not so good for Providence. This week's USCHO.com poll has BU at #3, Colgate at #6, and Providence has dropped to #16. The USA Today poll also has BU at 3, Colgate at 6, and PC is just off their top 15 ranking.
