Lancer forward Tyson Ness potted his ninth goal of the season to give the Lancers a 2-1 victory over the Ryerson Rams on Saturday night in Toronto.
 
Ness pounced on a loose puck in front and made no mistake on the backhand, beating Rams starter Troy Passingham with just 2:42 remaining in the third.
 
The Ness goal was the second and final goal for the Lancers, which in the end stood the test of time despite the Rams final efforts. 
 
Eric Noel opened up the scoring in the first with an acrobatic play, managing to put home a backhand while falling to his knees.  His 10th of the season gave the Lancers a one-goal lead and may be considered as one of the OUA's plays of the week.  
 
A scoreless second period then set the table for a nail biting finish.  Lancers starter Blake Richard was perfect up until Kyle Blaney and Daniel Clarimont connected late in third.
 
Blaney found an open Clairmont in front who chipped it up and over Richard for the tally.
 
It took just seconds for the Ness and the Lancers to respond with their second goal of the game to once again regain the lead.
 
The win was an important two points for the Blue & Gold, as it lifts Windsor into third place in an extremely tight west division.
 
The Lancers return home next weekend for their final two home games of the OUA regular season. They will host the Toronto Varsity Blues on Friday night and will again face off against the Rams on Saturday. Both games are scheduled for 7:30pm at South Windsor Arena and can be seen live at www.oua.tv.
