Rivs tie series with Cats in astonishing ten-round shootout

Cambridge has tied its quarter-final series with the Leaside Jr. Wildcats 2-2 in a game that was won in an astonishing ten-round shootout.  The one-on-one showdown saw both Cambridge and Leaside score in the seventh round. That tied it 2-2. It required three more rounds before Hana Solinger scored an unanswerable goal to make the final 3-2 Rivulettes. The series now moves back to Leaside Memorial Community Gardens for the fifth and final game scheduled to start at 3.40 Sunday afternoon. The winner will advance in semi-final play towards supremacy in the Provincial Women’s Hockey League. Leaside and Cambridge are evenly matched having finished fourth and fifth in regular season play.  But the playoffs can be surprising. First place Toronto Aeros with 31 wins are trailing 11th place Etobicoke Dolphins with 18 wins by two games to one in their best-of-five series.
