No. 7 Bobcats Complete Comeback to Beat Princeton
12/9/2023 6:54:00 PM | Women's Ice Hockey
PRINCETON, NJ. — The No. 7 Quinnipiac women's ice hockey team overcame a 5-3 third period deficit to top No. 12 Princeton 6-5 in overtime on Saturday, Dec. 12.
The game was back and forth from the start, Princeton scored just over six minutes in.
Late in the period, the Bobcats started to get going when Julia Nearis made a move and scored to even the contest.
Just over two minutes later, Nearis found Kate Reilly in the offensive zone, and she shot it just over the Princeton goaltender's shoulder.
Madison Chantler added one more on the power play just before the end of the first after receiving a pass from Sadie Peart in the slot.
Princeton would control the second, scoring four goals in the period.
After Princeton received a five minute major for direct contact to the head, Kendall Cooper found the back of the net on a shot from the point for a power play goal.
Two minutes later, Sadie Peart tapped in a rebound off a Kate Reilly shot to bring the Bobcats even.
Just over halfway through overtime Kate Reilly skated through the offensive zone before finding Sadie Peart in front of the net for the tip-in goal to win the game.
