SUDBURY, Ont. – Giving up is not in the UOIT women's hockey team's vocabulary and they proved that on Sunday afternoon.

Out of the playoff chase and trailing Laurentian 3-1 less than a minute into the second period, Justin Caruana's team could have easily packed it in with a long bus ride home ahead of them. Instead, the Ridgebacks stormed back with three unanswered goals to pick up the 4-3 win, their sixth of the season.

Defender Teresa Horner (Hamilton, Ont.) capped off the Ridgeback comeback scoring on the power play midway through the second period.
 
Tailor Campbell (Palmerston, Ont.) scored the Ridgebacks lone goal in the first period while Kassidy Nauboris (Brampton, Ont.) and Mariah Wilson (Cobourg, Ont.) each scored in the second.
 
Making her first start since January 24^th, Tori Campbell (Saskatoon, Sask.) made 44 saves in the victory, including stopping all 16 shots she faced in the third period. UOIT made the most of their opportunities firing just 19 shots on goal.
 
With the loss, Laurentian's playoff celebration was put on hold as Windsor, Brock and York all remain within striking distance of the Voyageurs for eighth place.
 
The win puts an end to UOIT's six-game losing streak, as they sweep the season series with Laurentian. The Ridgebacks are 6-0-0 against Laurentian in program history.
 
UOIT has two more home games remaining in their regular season beginning with a Sunday matinee next week against the Ryerson Rams. The Rams have struggled this season as they sit in the basement of the OUA standings with a 3-16-1 record.
