WORCESTER, Mass. (AP) - Teddy Doherty scored two goals, Thatcher Demko made 26 saves and Boston College held off Minnesota-Duluth 3-2 on Saturday night in the NCAA Northeast Regional final to advance to the Frozen Four.

The Golden Eagles (28-7-5) reached their record 25th Frozen Four. They won the last of their five national titles in 2012.

Ryan Fitzgerald gave Boston College a 3-0 lead with 13:25 left when he beat Kasimir Kaskisuo with a wrister from the circle that went over the goalie's left shoulder.

The Bulldogs (19-16-5) got goals from Austin Farley and Karson Kuhlman late in the third period, but couldn't push across the equalizer despite a power play in the final minute.

Boston College will face the winner of the East final Sunday between Quinnipiac and Massachussets-Lowell on April 7 in the Frozen Four in Tampa, Florida.
