Visser and Christina Kelly drew the assists on Gaudette’s deciding goal 44 seconds into extra time against Mount Allison (4-3-2).

Lisa Riley’s first-period goal gave the Mounties a 1-0 lead, but Jessie-Anne Howard’s power-play goal evened the score at 3:46 of the middle frame. Laura Bradley of Mount Stewart and Sam Sweet of O’Leary assisted.

Bailey Toupin earned the goaltending win.
