WATERLOO, Ont -- Andrew Fritsch of Brantford, Ont., scored twice, including the game-winner on a power-play as the Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks surprised No.8 McGill 4-3 in double overtime in OUA men's hockey at the Sun Life Arena, Friday.

The "Hawks, who were coming off an 8-4 setback to Brock, avenged a 4-0 loss to McGill last season as the Redmen lifetime record against WLU dropped to 13-12-1.

Mathieu Pompei of Laval, Que., had three points and teammate Daniel Milne of Unionville, Ont., tallied twice for the Redmen, who led 1-0 after one but were outscored 3-0 in the middle stanza on goals by Christian Mroczkowski, Brandon Robinson and Fritsch.

Milne's second of the soiree -- and seventh in 10 league games -- at 8:43 of the third period, sparked a Redmen rally that forced extra time when Pompei struck for his sixth marker to tie it at 3-3 (after pulling the goalie) with just 55 seconds remaining.

However, just 69 seconds after McGill rookie Alexandre Sills was nailed for a disputed tripping call in the second five-minute overtime period, Fritsch connected with the winner at 3:40 of the fifth period on a nifty three-way passing play that resulted in a blast from the top of the faceoff circle.

McGill, which dominated the first and third periods, had a 34-24 edge in shots. The went 0-for-2 on the power-play, while Laurier was 1-for-2.

'Hawks netminder Colin Furlong made 21 saves for the win, improving his record to 4-3. McGill rookie Louis-Philip Guindon made 20 saves and took the loss, dropping to 5-2. His goals-against average dropped to 2.44 and his save percentage now sits at .903.
