Wildcat Dylan Collins snuck the puck past Houlton-Hodgdon goalie Malik Abouleish for the end of regulation time tie in the third period of last Tuesday’s hockey game. The PIHS team effort led to the 2-1 victory over their archrivals the Black Hawks.
The Black Hawks scored the opening goal with seven minutes on the clock of the first period. The second went scoreless. Brennan Shaw assisted in the Collins goal in the third for the tie.
“Presque Isle started off the eight minutes sudden death overtime shorthanded,” explained head coach Carl Flynn. “But we successfully killed off the two-minute penalty.”
Greg Cyr found a gap in the defensive line for the winning score in overtime.
Senior goalie Ethan Hill blocked 38 of 39 shots to preserve the Wildcat lead.
The Wildcats again saw overtime action at the Kennebec Ice Arena against Gardiner last Friday with an unbroken tie at 3-3.
