Aaron Jamieson scored 37 seconds into overtime to lift the Sarnia Legionnaires (18-12-2-5) to a 2-1 victory over the St. Marys Lincolns (9-25-3-2) in GOJHL hockey action at the Brock St. Barn Thursday.

Ben Schoch opened the scoring for the Legionnaires midway through the opening period on a wrist shot from the point. Isaac McLean and Matt Stoia each picked up an assist on the play.

The Lincolns tied the game in the second period on a goal from Carson McMillan.

Jamieson's OT winner came on a scramble play in front of the net as he was able to tuck it in past the goalie.

Legionnaires goalie Nolan DeKoning made 27 saves on 28 shots, while Kyle Curtin stopped 41 of 43 Legionnaire chances. Each team was held scoreless on four powerplay chances.

The Legionnaires remain in fourth place in the Western Conference standings with 43 points, while St. Marys is in last place with 23.
