HOW IT HAPPENED
Suffolk may have the upperhand in shots in regulation, outshooting the Leopards, 36-22, but both netminders did their jobs to keep zeros on the scoreboard after 60 minutes.
The Rams started the overtime period on the power play. WIT successfully skated off the 53 seconds of the penalty though to even the playing field.
Alex Walicki dished ahead to George Kolovos who zoomed up the ice on a breakaway and lifted the puck over CJ Hapward's left shoulder to send WIT past Suffolk.
NETMINDER NOTES
- Hapward had 22 saves.
- Topher Chirico made 37 stops in the shutout.
STATISTICALLY SPEAKING
- Suffolk outshot Wentworth, 37-23.
