05/10 18:25 CDT Charge returning to Walter Cup Final with double OT win over
Fleet
Charge returning to Walter Cup Final with double OT win over Fleet
OTTAWA, Ontario (AP) --- The Ottawa Charge are returning to the Walter Cup
Final for a second straight season.
Michela Cava scored at 1:12 of the second overtime to lead Ottawa to a 4-3 win
over the Boston Fleet, winning the best-of-five semifinal series in four games.
Ottawa lost last year's final to the Minnesota Frost.
The Charge will meet the winner of the Montreal Victoire-Frost series, which
will be decided with Monday's Game 5.
Sarah Wozniewicz, Rebecca Leslie and Brooke Hobson also scored for Ottawa.
Goaltender Gwyneth Philips made 43 saves.
Shay Maloney, Megan Keller and Sophie Shirley scored for the Fleet. Aerin
Frankel made 29 saves.
After losing the first game, Ottawa went on to win the next three. Boston had
not lost three straight games all season.
Cava redirected a Katerina Mrazova shot for the winning goal.
The two teams combined for five goals in the second to tie the game 3-3 after
40 minutes.
Ottawa took a 2-0 lead early in the period. Jenner fired a sharp-angle shot
from below the goal-line that deflected off Leslie's skate as she battled to
the crease. The play was reviewed, but the goal stood.
The Fleet then scored three straight in a span of 1:33 to take a 3-2 lead.
