WILKEY AND WALLER FIND WAY TO WIN, AGAIN

schambers
Out-shooting Plano 38 to 37 proved to be the difference as the Mavericks and Wildcats scrapped it out for 54minutes and 4 seconds on Scotty Caven Field in a THSLL inter-district counter.   It was Deja vu all over again, coming off a 8-7 thriller double OT victory on Patrick Wilkey's goal against Episcopal earlier this week.  Would Wilkey wind up with the last goal again?
The game took place within the 15th annual Texas Junior Jam with Texas' future prospects watching from the sidelines inbetween games while the high school players within the lines were trying to show off what they had become since their own Jammin days. 
Plano got on board early with Matt Kelley scoring unassisted.  Ross Gillum made it 2-0 Plano, but Buddy Carruth got the Mavericks moving with their first goal at the 5:36 mark in the opening period.  Zach Gaitz added another and Plano's Michael Oravetz scored from a Zak Heinritz assist.  It would be Gillum time twice more to put Plano up 5-2 early in the second, but the Mavericks were just waking up from ACT exams and ISAS commitments earlier in the day.
Caldwell Flores scored on a break and Reed Daniel put one past Austin Black to go into halftime down 4-5.
Gaitz found Patrick Wilkey midway throught the third to tie it up and Daniel got the Mavs their first lead entering the final 12 minutes of regulation. 
Plano's Heinritz tied it up again at 6 with 9:07 to go, then Daniel gave the Mavericks the lead again at the 7:23 mark.  Gillum however, went to work drawing slides and found Kelley for the tie at 7 apiece.
Meanwhile Maverick's Henry Waller was minding the net with 15 saves in regulation, and Plano's Brown was posting his own game changing performance as the two goalies stopped shots to send the game into overtime. 
They were so good that the Mavericks found themselves back where they were on Tuesday night.
Wilkey and Gillum had chances to finish for each team, but Brown and Waller were too stout. 
As the clock went below the two minute mark in the the second OT, out of nowhere Jordan Schuler's shot was lucky number 38 for the the game winner, assisted by non other than Patrick Wilkey. Final: Mavericks 8 Wildcats 7, double OT.  John Ytterberg, Reed Daniel, Patrick Wilkey, Ryan Cordill and Will Wallace led the Mavs with 5 gb's each.
