Boston College had rallied from a 13-point, second-half deficit to take a 50-49 lead on Ryan Anderson's basket with just over 2 minutes to play, but Myrick's three-point play put the Wildcats back in front with 1:58 left.

The Wildcats led by eight at halftime, but BC made an early to run and closed it to 34-30 on KC Caudill's put-back 2 1/2 minutes into the second half.
New Hampshire then scored 13 of the next 17 points, taking a 47-34 lead on Jordon Bronner's twisting basket in the lane with just under 11 minutes to play. Myrick also scored four points during the run.

After BC failed to take the lead on its next three possessions - three missed jumpers and a free throw on the front end of a one-and-one - Pelcher had a basket in the lane for New Hampshire, making it 49-48. It ended a 6 minute, 52 second scoreless stretch.
