At the end of regulation, the score was tied and the teams found themselves going into overtime. A 10 minute overtime period was unable to decide a winner, each team took a point from the game.
Back on home ice for Game 3, the Orillia Terriers came out strong, playing a strong defensive game against the Colts.

Needing a win or a tie to take the series, the Terriers travelled back to Barrie for game 4. 7 mins into Game 4, May picked up where he left off in Game 3, putting the Terriers on the board first. May’s goal was assisted by Jackson Cook. Barrie wasn’t going to go quietly, as they added a goal to tie it up before the end of the first. The 1 goal to the Colts was all the defensive lines and goaltenders were going to allow.

After 2 periods of play, the Terriers led 2-1 on a goal from Mc Kay. They did not back down and made the Colts goalie work every shift.

The Terriers did not give Barrie a chance to pull their goalie, keeping the puck in the opposition’s end for the last 3 mins of the game. And just as the buzzer was about to sound and the cheers were going to ring out, May put the icing on the cake, scoring with 5 secs left, assist to Mc Kay. The Terriers took Game 4, 4-1 and will now face Innisfil in the OMHA semifinals.
