Meet Hockey Sophomore Cuties Ian McCoshen and Thatcher Demko!

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at BC chapter.

If you any of you ladies are as excited as I am for the rest of the hockey season, you’ve been swiping into every single game possible to earn enough Gold Pass points to guarantee your Beanpot tickets. If you weren’t as psyched as I am, you definitely will be after meeting this week’s Campus Cuties. These guys and I suffer through 9 am philosophy together, and I can assure all of you that they are hard working student-athletes that add a lot to our BC community.

BC Life

Best thing about being part of BC Varsity Hockey

  • Ian: Spending time with the boys
  • Thatcher: Winning

Worst class

  • Ian: Courage to Know
  • Thatcher: Elementary French I

Bapst or O’Neill

  • Thatcher: Wait Ian, is Bapst the Harry Potter one?
  • Ian: Yeah, I think it is. Since we didn’t get our Hogwarts acceptance letters, we’ll have to settle for that one I guess.

Number one on your BC bucket list

  • Ian: There are too many… UGBC actually putting on a good Modstock like Jay-Z or Bey level, getting an A in a class, throwing a rager in Bapst and using the books as a bonfire to keep us warm in the January winter. Oh and last one, actually seeing a Jesuit on campus.
  • Thatcher:  Winning a National Championship at BC and going a whole day on campus without seeing a kid wearing Sperrys.

Favorite place to eat on campus

  • Ian: Concession stands at sporting events and if those are closed, Che Chi’s always has my back
  • Thatcher: City Co for the lip snacks

Favorite hangout spot on campus

  • Ian: O’Connell House on a Friday night with my main man Noah Hanifin
  • Thatcher: As far away from BCPD as possible

Learn Even More!

Single or Taken

  • Ian: Currently under the interview process, drop off resumes and headshots in my mailbox
  • Thatcher: I’ve been handcuffed and the key is nowhere to be found

Biggest pet peeve

  • Ian: When girls sit there complaining about an A- and I’m getting a C on a good day
  • Thatcher: When Ian scores on me at practice

Celeb crush

  • Ian: Neil Patrick Harris and Rosie O’Donnell
  • Thatcher: Mark Wahlberg and Whoopi Goldberg

Perfect date

  • Ian: Going to a rodeo and taking turns on riding the bull
  • Thatcher: Lower

Deal breakers 

  • Ian: Excessive amount of attention needed
  • Thatcher: Not a hockey fan

What would be the team’s theme song?

  • Ian: “Fight Night” by Migos
  • Thatcher: Yeah, I have to agree with that one

Advice to the freshmen:

  • Ian: Invest in lip snacks and that is all
  • Thatcher: Stay away from the library, it’s bad for your mental health 

Anything else you want to share with the BC community?

  • Thatcher: SUCKS TO BU

Catherine is a sophomore at Boston College majoring in Political Science and minoring in International Studies. She is thrilled to be part of the Her Campus BC publicity team once again this semester. Her hobbies include bingeing on Netflix, ordering coffees with ridicuously long names (skim, sugar-free, iced-caramel latte, anyone?), and spending hours on hercampus.com. 
I am a Political Science major and Women's and Gender Studies minor at Boston College. I am an RA on campus and am involved in the Student Admissions Program. Since I am from Florida, I can legitimately say that I love long walks on the beach. I also love getting lost in a world fabricated by a novel, there is honestly nothing better.
