It wasn't the end the Nipissing Lakers women's hockey team was looking for as they wrapped up the regular season.

Nipissing came up short, losing 2-1 in overtime to the visiting Brock Badgers in the final game of the season, as the Lakers prepare for playoffs.

Hunter Mosher opened up the scoring in the first period, set up by Taylor McManus to give Nipissing the 1-0 lead.

That advantage lasted until the final 30 seconds of the game when Brock tied the game.

The Badgers then won it less than a minute into the overtime period to grab the extra point.

Danika Ranger finished with 21 saves, but was tagged with the loss, while Nipissing fired 28 shots at the Badgers net.

The Lakers are off next weekend before playoff start on Wednesday, Feb. 20.
