Down by two goals in the third period, the St. Louis Park offense came alive with three unanswered goals, including the game winner from Sam Baker with :53.7 left in regulation time that led the Orioles to a 3-2 win over the Bloomington Jefferson Jaguars Saturday night at The Rec Center.
The Jaguars got the first period's lone goal when Nathan Johannes got a pass on the right side of the net and he went top shelf to give Jefferson the early lead. They would almost go up by two but Blake Camuel, who drove down the ice like the team bus heading down Highway 100 had his shot saved by Oriole goalie Will Pinney.
The score didn't change in the second period. But the Jaguars would lead by two :57 into the third period on Princeton Oppong's goal that went over Pinney's shoulder. Could St. Louis Park rebound from a two goal deficit? The answer would be yes as Willy Basill would score from the right slot to cut the lead to one. Following a time out, Oriole head coach Colin Hohman would pull Pinney to go with a six attacker and it would pay off on Jack Wandmacher's center slot goal with 1:56 remaining to even the score. There would be no overtime as Baker picked up a loose puck from Johnny Sorenson in the center slot and put it past Jaguar goalie Basil Kamsheh with :53.7 to clinch the win.
Camuel is the son of former Jaguar Derek Camuel, who played on the 1994 Class AA state championship team.
St. Louis Park extended their unbeaten streak to seven and improved their record to 10-5-2. They will return to action on Saturday, January 27 against the Holy Angels Stars at 2 PM at the Richfield Ice Arena. Jefferson fell to 6-10 and returns to The Rec Center on Tuesday, January 23 to face the Benilde-St. Margaret's Red Knights at 7 PM.
