Box Score Third-year forward Becki Bowering netted the game-winning goal with 6:34 remaining in the third period as the University of Toronto Varsity Blues women's hockey team defeated the Brock Badgers 3-2 in a School Day game on Friday afternoon (Jan. 13) in St. Catharines, Ont.
 
With the win the Blues improve to 8-1-5-0 (W-OTW-L-OTL) and move into a tie for third place with a game in hand.
 
After a scoreless first period, Brock netted two quick goals early in the second frame. The Blues got on the board midway through the period as fourth-year forward Katherine Gale capitalized on a Badgers turnover in the slot and sent a nice shot past Brock goalie Jensen Murphy.
 
Toronto was trailing 2-1 after 40 minutes of action.
 
The Blues evened the score midway through the third period as Lauren Straatman tipped in a Cristine Chao point shot off the face off.
 
Bowering proved to be the game's hero, forcing a turnover and finishing off a nice 2-on-1 pass from Alessandra Bianchi for the game-winner.
