Box Score The Marauders completed a magical run through the back half of the OUA schedule Saturday. Putting four goals past the Brock Badgers, McMaster shut out Brock 4-0 to win their eighth game of their last nine and finish the regular season fifth in the OUA West division.
It marked a remarkable end to a season in which McMaster stood winless at 0-5-2 through seven matches, and seemed destined to miss the OUA playoffs. Instead, the Marauders have a knockout game to look forward to in midweek, and will have to travel to either Windsor or Guelph pending the results of Sunday's matches.
Hannah Chau-Stacey, Emma Czernuszka and Taylor Lambert scored for the Marauders, with the game's first goal coming the way of a Brock own goal.
Goalkeeper Deanna Persico held the Badgers off the scoresheet, making four saves for her fifth clean sheet of the season.
