Samantha Fallon ’12, a defender on UMass Boston’s Women’s ice hockey team, was named MVP of the women’s 7th annual Codfish Bowl Tournament.

The former athletic director of Boston State College (now UMass Boston) James Sullivan and former hockey coach Ed Barry began the Codfish Bowl Tournament in 1965 as an annual showcase of Men’s Division III hockey teams from New England.

The 2-0 victory was the first tournament championship win in the 10-year history of the UMass Boston Women’s ice hockey program.

Highlights from the game, including Ms. Fallon’s first period goal, can be seen in this UMass Boston Athletics video.
