(Between Recent History and Other Beanpots)

Women's Beanpot (ice hockey)
Starting in 1979, the Women's Beanpot takes place each year on the first two Tuesdays in February. The first tournament was hosted at Northeastern's Matthews Arena, where the Huskies won 3-1 against Boston College. Historically, Northeastern and Harvard have dominated, with 17 and 15 titles, respectively. Boston College follows with 8 championships, then Boston University with 2. Harvard Crimson are the defending 2022 champions, but lost to Boston College in their opening round game of 2023. As opposed to the men's tournament, which is hosted at TD Garden, the four competing schools rotate hosting the women's games.

Northeastern
The Northeastern Huskies have the most Women's Beanpot wins out of the four teams with 17. Out of the first 13 tournaments, they took home 10 championships, with an eight-win streak from 1984-1991. They most recently won the title in 2020, winning 4-3 against BU in double overtime and sweeping both men's and women's tournaments for the Huskies.

Harvard
Harvard won their first Women's Beanpot title at the 4th tournament in 1982, defeating BU 2-1. From the first tournament in 1979 to 1993, Harvard advanced to the championship game 11 out of 15 times and won 4. Since the women's tournament started, 18 of the 43 championship games have been between Harvard and Northeastern. Of those, Harvard has won 7 and Northeastern has won 11. Harvard Crimson are the most recent Beanpot champions, defeating BC 5-4 in 2022, bringing their win total to 15.

Boston College
Boston College's first two women's championships did not come until the 2006 and 2007 Beanpots, winning back-to-back years against Harvard and BU, respectively. Since 2007, the Eagles have advanced to the championship round in 8 tournaments and won 6 more titles. Their most recent win came in 2018 with a 4-3 overtime win against BU, finalizing a three-win streak.

Boston University
BU Terriers have the fewest wins of the women's Beanpot teams at 2. Their first title came in 1981 against BC, and their second nearly four decades later in 2019 against Harvard. With their first win, BU defeated BC 4-0, winning the Beanpot while still playing as a club team. Their 3-2 overtime win against Harvard marked their first championship playing as a varsity team.
