The Waterloo Black Hawks are moving on to the USHL Western Conference Finals.
Last night the Hawks outlasted Sioux Falls 6-5 in double-overtime to win their Western Conference Semifinal series, three-games to one.
It was an exciting comeback win for Waterloo as twice they rallied from two-goal deficits.
Down 4-2 going into the 3rd period, the Black Hawks rallied and tied the game at 4 apiece with just under 7-minutes remaining.
Sioux Falls then regained the lead 5-4 with 5:21 left in regulation.
Late in the game the Hawks pulled their goalie for an extra attacker and it paid off as Waterloo scored a dramatic goal by Reid Morich with 59-seconds left to tie the game at 5-5.
After a scoreless first overtime, Waterloo’s Brendan McMorrow ended the game 2:32 into the second overtime on a long shot from the high slot.
The Black Hawks advance to the Western Conference Finals for a series against Lincoln. Lincoln will host Games One and Two.
