Taylor Reimer (Morden/) was unbeatable, turning aside all 35 shots faced for her first shutout of the season. Reimer now has a .959 save percentage the fourth best in the OUA, one spot better than teammate Stephanie Sluys (Clinton/) with a .956 save percentage. The duo are showing they are one of the best in the country once again.

Combined the Warrior netminders have allowed just eight goals in seven games which leads both OUA and U SPORTS.

The win is Waterloo's fifth straight in regulation and sixth overall as the Warriors improved to 5-1-1-0. Their 17 points are good for fourth overall in the OUA but it's worth noting they have three games in hand on all teams ahead of them (Western, Brock, Queen's).

Tegan Odland (Enchant/) netted the games lone goal at 2:23 of the first period as neither team found twine for the final 57:37 of the game. Rachel Marriott (Waterloo/) and Hannah Street (Shoal Lake/) picked up the helpers on the winning goal.

The Warriors will take their winning streak into Guelph this Thursday before closing out 2017 with three straight home games.

The Y??RK Lions just couldn't score today & our weekend series ends with a 3-3 record against the @yorkulions! #goblackgogold ???? pic.twitter.com/NkxHwNtpz2
