Rising from a sophomore unable to secure a varsity spot to a senior captain taught Proctor/Hermantown forward Kaitlyn Fawcett about resiliency.
She showed some by scoring the deciding goal in a 3-2 overtime victory against Rochester Lourdes.
Fawcett's goal sends her Mirage to Friday's semifinals to face No. 1-seeded and undefeated Warroad.
No. 4 seed Proctor/Hermantown (19-7-3) went ahead 1-0 on a first-period goal from sophomore forward Aurora Opsahl.
Less than two minutes into the second period, Rochester Lourdes senior forward Clara Billings tied the score 1-1 on her 34th goal of the season.
The key player on the ice through two periods for No. 5 seed Lourdes (15-11-1) was junior goaltender Corrin Hanson. She negated the Mirage's 25-14 shot advantage by stopping all but one.
But in the third period, Proctor/Hermantown broke through for a second goal as junior forward Sydney Skorich corralled a turnover in the Lourdes zone and went to the net for her 13th goal of the season.
Trailing by a goal, Rochester Lourdes enjoyed a late 6-on-4 advantage with 1:32 to play after a Mirage penalty and pulling its goalie.
