Bishop’s led 3-2 after the opening quarter but Guelph battled back to go ahead 6-5 at the half and 9-7 after three.
Rounding out the scoring for the victors was Jordan Critch of Orangeville, Ont., with a pair, and Taylor Brown of Peterborough, Ont.
Alex Millen, a senior from Port Moody, B.C., netted four in a losing cause for the Gaiters and was named as his side’s player of the game. Teammate Alex Henderson of Enniskillen, Ont., tallied twice and added three helpers. Others to make the scoresheet included Ryan Dewar of Cornwall, Ont., with two goals, plus Simon Winquist of Sherbrooke, Que., and James Malloy of Uxbridge, Ont.
Goalkeeper Jeremy Snider, a senior from Kitchener, collected the win for Guelph, while David Bigley of New Westminster, B.C., took the loss.
