Buescher leads the ACC in points with 21 and is tied for second in assists with seven.

The Orange climbed three spots to No. 12 in the coaches poll (NSCAA) and moved up to No. 10 in RPI.

The Eagles boast a record of 5-2-0 at home. The two losses at home came against Loyola Marymount and Wake Forest. Boston College has lost each its last three games by one goal.
