Midfielder Chris Bone (COM'01) scored the only goal of the first half. But Vermont's Mark De Casiro tied the game in the 64th minute. Then with six minutes left in regulation, Nick Bone scored the game-winner off a penalty kick. Nick, BU's all-time leading scorer, is only the second player in University history to surpass the 100-point plateau. Last season he finished fourth in the New England region in goals scored and total points. Both brothers are from Newcastle, England. In high school Chris collected 63 goals in three years with St. Cuthbert's -- also his brother's alma mater. He helped the team capture the Northumberland County League title in 1996 and 1997. Field hockey forward Candice Lilienfeld (COM'99), who leads the Terriers with 10 goals this season, scored 3 of them in her last two games. Against New Hampshire October 24 she scored twice -- the game's first and last goals -- as BU cruised to a 3-0 victory. Boston University, hosting Vermont on October 26, got on the scoreboard in just under four minutes when midfielder Jessica Alcorta (SED'00) passed to an open Lilienfeld, who scored another game-winning goal. The Terriers scored three more times for a 4-0 shutout, evening their overall record at 8-8. BU is 5-3 in America East play and in fourth place. Lilienfeld, from North Dartmouth, Mass., had scored a total of nine goals in her first two seasons.       Terrier Scoreboard Men's Crew Field Hockey Oct. 26 Head of the Schuylkill: club eights Þnished 5th and 6th of 45 colleges, open fours Þnished 8th of 49 colleges, freshman open fours Þnished 2nd of 49 colleges Oct. 24 BU 3, New Hampshire 0 Oct. 26 BU 4, Vermont Football Men's Hockey Oct. 25 Northeastern 28, BU 7 Oct. 25 BU 3, Vermont 2 Men's Sailing Oct. 26 BU Invitational: BU's 1st boat Þnished 1st of 8 colleges, BU's 2nd boat Þnished 7th of 8 colleges Oct. 26 Freshman Invitational: BU Þnished 8th of 9 colleges Women's Sailing Oct. 26 Stew Nelson Trophy Regatta: BU Þnished 12th of 13 colleges Men's Soccer Women's Soccer Oct. 24 BU 2, Vermont 1 Oct. 24 BU 1, Vermont 0 Men's Tennis Women's Tennis Oct. 26 Cornell Invitational: Ian Carrera (CGS'00) and Greg Toon (CAS'99) advanced to the semiÞnals Oct. 26 America East Championships: BU Þnished 1st
