Fans who made the brave decision to hit the concession stand during the second state hockey semifinal match Thursday night at World Arena did so at their own risk.

Momentum shifts were so frequent and drastic, any such quick trip might have resulted in an entirely different game being played upon that person's return.

Once the scoring explosions finally ceased, it was second-seeded Regis Jesuit that stood tall, recording a 5-4 overtime win against Lewis-Palmer. The Raiders (19-1-1) will take a 12-game winning streak into Saturday's title game against Battle Mountain and will aim to end the Huskies' 18-game winning streak.

The Raiders' Austin Miller scored the winning goal on a power play 1:44 into the extra session, blasting a slap shot from the top of the right circle that deflected off a Lewis-Palmer player and past Rangers goaltender Colin Anonsen.

"I couldn't believe it. Fortune smiled on us, I think it's as simple as that," said Regis coach Dan Woodley, whose team is in the state final for the first time. "We played a fine team that showed a lot of character. They had us on our heels for the first half of that third period. Then we were able to turn it on late in the third, and we tried to build on that momentum in overtime.

"Nothing can be said about one team winning or losing. It was fortune."

Lewis-Palmer held a 2-1 lead at the first intermission and appeared as if it would retain that lead after the second period when Regis put together a stirring salvo, scoring three goals in a span of 3:24 late in the period to take a 4-2 lead into the third.

The Rangers, though, did not cave and wasted little time tying the score with two goals in a span of 2:24 early in the third to make it 4-4.

"We know how to come back as a team and really bond and come together and win games," said Regis junior Connor Hayes, who led the Raiders with two goals and added an assist on Miller's winner. "It is such a great feeling."

Regis also received two goals from Taylor Cline and two assists from Gregg Davis. Nick Galvin, Keith Yates and Garrett Lukken each recorded one goal and one assist for Lewis-Palmer (17-4-1).

"We say it all the time - this team is four lines deep," Hayes said. "Everybody puts in the same amount of effort. It doesn't matter if I score goals . . . guys bust their butts and the whole team is bonding so well."
