BC-Northeastern to Play at Fenway

CHN Staff Report

BOSTON — Add yet another outdoor game to the mix.

Boston College and Northeastern will play outside at Fenway Park on Jan. 14, at 6 p.m. The game was originally scheduled to be played at BC.

Previously, Hockey East already announced a pair of outdoor games for Jan. 7 — Massachusetts vs. Vermont (4 p.m.), and New Hampshire vs. Maine (7:30 p.m.).

In addition, there's an outdoor game scheduled for Jan. 15 between Michigan and Ohio State at Cleveland's Progressive Field, home of the Cleveland Indians.

Prior to the BC-Northeastern game, long-time high school rivals Boston College High School and Catholic Memorial will play a game, pending approval from the respective schools and the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association (MIAA).

“After the January 7th hockey doubleheader at Fenway Park sold out in less than a week, we wanted to offer hockey fans another opportunity to watch an outdoor game at the ballpark this winter,” said Boston Red Sox Executive Vice President/COO Sam Kennedy. “The addition of these two games also gives Boston residents a rare chance to see two popular local teams compete at both the high school and collegiate level.”

Tickets for the single ticket doubleheader go on sale Nov. 18 at noon (ET) and will be available at redsox.com/frozenfenway, by calling (877) RED-SOX9, or at the Fenway Park box office. Fans with disabilities may also call (877) RED-SOX9 to purchase accessible seating. The Red Sox' TTY number for hearing-impaired fans is (617) 226-6644.
