Cottage Grove 12UB1 is victorious after marathon record making 3-day OT game.
The Cottage Grove and St. Paul Saints U-12 girls teams started playing Monday night but the game was tied 1-1 after three regulation periods and six overtimes. Play was suspended at 10:45 p.m. and resumed Tuesday with the seventh overtime. Despite playing through the 10th overtime, the game remained tied, leading to another suspension.
The teams resumed play on Wednesday evening starting with a 10 minute period of 5 verses 5, then followed by a 10 minute period of 3 versus 3. They then went to a 5 on 5 shoot out. Two goals were made on each team resulting in a 3-3 tied score. This then leaded the teams to a sudden death shootout where Cottage Grove makes the first goal winning the game 4-1.
The fan support was incredible! A huge shoutout to the Bantam teams that stayed and became the best cheering squad the girls could have ever asked for!
They resume district playoffs tomorrow after an unforgettable win!
