Sun Devils Clinch 29th Straight Win Over Wildcats In Overtime

The second ranked Sun Devil hockey team extended their winning streak against the No.18 UA Wildcats to 29 as they were able to come from behind and win 4-3 in overtime.

The team was down 3-0 midway through the second period, but rallied to tie the game in the third period. In overtime, defenseman Darcy Charrois scored the game winning goal as he went top shelf on UA goaltender Robert Schultz.

“I had one more guy to get around, so I was just trying to chip it around him. I got by him clean and then the glove was where I was going,” Charrois said. “We just battled back and we never really got down and it was fun to get the win.”
