WHKY | Voyageurs Fall to Warriors in Shootout
On Thursday night, the Voyageurs women's grabbed a single point as the Vees fell 3-2 in a shootout loss to the Waterloo Warriors.
The Voyageurs wasted little time in the third period tying the contest as veteran forward Jessica Staats scored just 19 seconds into the period with an assist going to Voyageur captain Ellery Veerman and Morgan McCann.
The game remained tied throughout the remainder of the third period and through the overtime period and the 2-2 tie required a shootout to determine a winner.
The Voyageurs were outscored 2-1 in the shootout. Regan Toltesi and Staats had the two unsuccessful attempts for the Vees while Morell netted the only Voyageurs shootout attempt. Caragata and Sarah Rettinger scored the first two shots for the Warriors, defeating the Voyageurs with a final score of 3-2.
Despite the loss, the Vees carry on to the University of Windsor on Friday night where they will try to avenge Thursday's defeat against the Lancers.
