History The Boston College Club Hockey Program was founded in 2008 by students who were looking to play competitive hockey between the intramural and varsity levels. The team began competing as a member of American Collegiate Hockey Association (ACHA) in 2009 and reached the national tournament in its first year of eligibility. In 2009, the team finished number 6 in the nation, and followed that with a strong #5 finish in the country in 2010. The team failed to reach nationals in 2011 and 2012, losing each year in the second game of regionals. Boston College Beat Northeastern in the 2011 Club Hockey Beanpot.
