B8 continued their strong push to the finish last night with another victory in an OT thriller (that's right, overtime in the playoffs, thank god). Things once again looked bleak early for B8, falling behind 2-Nil in the early goings, but they staged a tremendous defensive effort from the second goal on to tie the game at 2 a piece with 1:30 remaining on a great put-back by Amanda.
After a scoreless 5 minute over time the game was fated to be decided by penalty kicks. Chris "the human wall" Huz was spectacular in net turning away all but 1 of the opponents 5 shots (though in rather hysterical fashion he began celebrating after only 4 thinking the game was in hand). Mazz made up for last weeks PK blunder by burying his shot in the back of the net and Pascal finished off the night with a tough shot to the lower left 90. Final tally 2-1 good guys.
Strong efforts all around last night, highlighed by the human cannon ball Ross barreling into and through teammates, opponents, goal posts, and at one point a bin full of tennis balls. Game ball goes to Kathryn as a season achievment award. The stallwart of the scoring lines defense, Kathryn tirelessly has broken up run after run for the opposition. Last night being no exception.
Also Congrats to Mazz, his two game streak with no tussles is his longest of the season.
