The Chatham Maroons came up short in an away game against the LaSalle Vipers with a 3-2 loss in overtime on Wednesday.

Heading into second, LaSalle secured a second goal before forward Cameron Welch responded for the Maroons with the team's first goal with an assist from Cameron Symons.
Throughout the remainder of the second period and most of third, players from both teams struggled to get on the board again and spent time in the penalty box.
Maroons skater Dylan Glinski then decided to tie things up 2-2 at 13:16 into third. The Maroons continued to aggressively defend their net forcing the game into overtime.
Chatham fell short when LaSalle sealed their victory with the game winner 3:06 in the first overtime.
