Gwyneth Philips turned aside 27 of 28 shots to backbone Northeastern University to a 2-1 victory over Boston College in the championship game of the 44th Women’s Beanpot in Chestnut Hill.

Northeastern’s Maureen Murphy was named the tournament MVP after netting what turned out to be the winning goal in the second period. It was her 18th goal of the season for Northeastern (28-2-1), which is again one of the top teams in the country.

Boston College (18-13-1) made things interesting for the crowd of 1,346 at Kelley Rink when Hannah Bilka scored in the third period. But Philips and the Huskies held on to capture the title, one day after the Northeastern men won the Beanpot in a shootout over Harvard.

In the third-place game, sophomore forward Christina Vote had two goals and an assist as Boston University scored the final five goals to earn a 7-4 win against Harvard.

Vote had a hand in three of BU’s last four goals. Harvard (7-17-3) led 3-1 on two goals by Shannon Hollands and a single tally from Gabi Davidson Adams. Then the Crimson took a 4-2 advantage in the second period when Anne Bloomer found the back of BU’s net.
