    New York Islanders prospects and Boston University forwards Cole Eiserman (2024, No. 20) and Kamil Bednarik (2024, No. 61) will compete in the 2025 NCAA National Championship game.

    The Terriers defeated Penn State 3-1 in the semi-final to advance to the championship and will take on Western Michigan University.

    Eiserman, 18, who scored what proved to be the game-winning goal in Thursday night’s tilt, is looking to build on his impressive freshman season.

    He has 35 points (24 goals, 11 assists) in 38 games, leading all college freshmen in goals and sitting sixth among all skaters.

    Bednarik, 18, has also been a key contributor to the Terriers as their third-line center with 18 points (two goals, 16 assists) in 39 games. 

    He has been used on the penalty kill and in key late-game situations by head coach Jay Pandolfo.

    Western Michigan has been led by Philadelphia Flyers forward prospect, Alex Bump, and Los Angeles Kings goaltending prospect, Hampton Slukynsky.

    The championship game will be played at Enterprise Center in St. Louis at 7:30 PM EST. The game will be on ESPN2, and streaming on ESPN.
