Box Score
Angela MacDonald (Kitchener) scored the overtime winner at 1:41 of the second overtime period as the Waterloo women's hockey team picked up their third straight win and eighth win of the season topping the York Lions 2-1.
MacDonald picked up a loose puck in the slot after a
Hannah Street (Shoal Lake) point shot and put it past a helpless Lauren Dubie for the power play marker and game winner.
Alison Hanson (Toronto) and
Amy Barnard (Cambridge) got the assists of keeping the puck alive out front of Dubie.
Waterloo's opening goal came at 3:24 of the first period as
Rachel Marriott (Waterloo) made a nice move to the backhand to pot her fifth of the season.
Michelle Tanel (Toronto) and
Rebecca Rutherford (Ajax) picked up the helpers.
The Lions found the tying goal early in the third period as Leah Hibbert was on the right side of a bouncing pack that snuck past
Stephanie Sluys (Clinton). Sluys however stood tall the rest of the period as York took it to the black and gold. Sluys finished the game with 24 stops improving her league leading goals against average to 1.12.
Waterloo improved to 8-3-0 on the season, good for third overall in the OUA with 22 points, just one back of second place Guelph and three back of first place Nipissing.
The Warriors will close out 2016 next weekend with a pair of games, first at home against Western on Saturday before travelling to St. Catharines to take on Brock.
