Sean O'Toole scored three goals, including the game-tying and game-winning goals, as Benilde-St. Margaret's came from behind for a 4-3 overtime win at Stillwater.

A goal by Michael Kreutzfeldt with one minute, 54 seconds remaining in the first period put the Ponies on top but the Red Knights responded early in the second period.

John Kernan tied the score with a power-play goal just 1:13 into the middle frame and then set up O'Toole's first goal just over two minutes later.

The hosts scored twice late in the second period with Sam Beutel scoring at 9:33 before Kreutzfeldt scored with 19 seconds remaining in the period.

Stillwater held onto the 3-2 lead until Jacob Dick was called for holding with 50 seconds remaining on the clock. It took the Red Knights just 22 seconds before O'Toole tied the game with 32 seconds remaining in the third period to send the game into overtime.

BSM controlled the play in overtime and finally ended the game when O'Toole picked up a loose puck in the neutral zone, skated into the left faceoff circle and scored on a low shot.

O'Toole's final two goals made a winner of goalie Adam Clark, who came on in relief of Luke McCormick to start the third period. Clark stopped all seven shots he faced to pick up his second win.

The Red Knights are back in action Tuesday, Dec. 9, when they host Cretin-Derham Hall at the St. Louis Park Recreation Center. The game will be played on the East Rink.
