<\/p>\nBoth of the remaining U Sports quarterfinal games required a shootout, ultimately seeing the University of Montreal and University of New Brunswick earn the final two positions in the semis.<\/p>\n
It was a #1 seed versus #8 seed, but it was the underdog bottom seed in the tournament, the University of Montreal who came out victorious and will play for a medal at the U Sports National Championships. Montreal upset the top seed University of British Columbia Thunderbirds 4-3 in a shootout.<\/p>\n

Montreal opened the scoring in the second period when\u00a0Chloe Duchesneau struck shorthanded. Only 36 seconds later,\u00a0Janelle Mentor doubled the Carabins lead.<\/p>\n
Before the period was out, back-to-back Canada West Player of the Year Grace Elliott scored on the power play to get UBC back in the game.<\/p>\n
In the third, it looked like the top seeds were turning it around as Canada West Defender of the Year Jaylyn Morris scored for the Thunderbirds, followed by the go-ahead goal for British Columbia, a fluke play by a Montreal defender into their own net that was credited to Karine Sandilands.<\/p>\n

Juliette Rolland however, responded for Montreal who were outshot 34-22 in the game, with\u00a0Maude Desroches stopping 31. Montreal managed to exit regulation tied 3-3. After a scoreless overtime frame, the teams went to a shootout where Audrey Anne-Veillette and Jade Picard tallied for the Carabins to list them to a 4-3 win ousting UBC and advancing to the semifinals.<\/p>\n

The first was a power play marker from Ottawa’s Alex Ferguson.<\/p>\n
The second, also came in the opening frame as\u00a0Lauren Carter tallied shorthanded for New Brunswick.<\/p>\n
It was a goaltending duel from there on out with UNB’s\u00a0Cassie McCallum\u00a0stopping 28 of 29 shots, and Ottawa’s\u00a0Clara Genier\u00a0turning aside 43 of 44.<\/p>\n
After overtime solved nothing, the teams went to the shootout where\u00a0Payton Hargreaves and Katelyn Scott scored for the University of New Brunswick Reds to lift their team to a 2-1 win and a spot in the U Sports semifinals.<\/p>\n
Guelph will now take on Concordia, while Montreal faces New Brunswick for a chance to play for a national title.<\/p>\n
On the consolation side, Waterloo will play Manitoba followed by Ottawa taking no UBC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Both of the remaining U Sports quarterfinal games required a shootout, ultimately seeing the University of Montreal and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":550430,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194295],"tags":[49,48,213933,909,20739,213934,29211,64911,213932,110672],"class_list":["post-550429","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-ottawa","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-grace-elliott","tag-new-brunswick","tag-ottawa","tag-ottawa-gee-gees","tag-university-of-british-columbia","tag-university-of-montreal","tag-university-of-new-brunswick","tag-university-of-ottawa"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/550429","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=550429"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/550429\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/550430"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=550429"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=550429"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=550429"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
