Senior back Colin Macdonald (West Newbury, Mass.) also had a hand in two of the Golden Bears' three goals, burying a 61st minute penalty kick and adding an assist four minutes later.
Junior goalkeeper Kevin Strobel (Rockland, Mass.) made six saves in net, while senior midfielder Ryan Dunnigan (Newtown, Conn.), sophomore forward Maurice Young (Walpole, Mass.) and freshman midfielder Nick Liccardi (Hopewell Junction, N.Y.) all recorded assists.
Remillard staked the Golden Bears to a 1-0 lead just under ten minutes into the contest, after taking a headed pass from Young on the right side of the box. The sophomore fired a low shot inside the left post, beating UMass Boston senior goalkeeper Alfonso Rosales (Revere, Mass.) for his first goal of the match.
Western New England carried its 1-0 lead into the break, but freshman Mohamed Kenawy (Revere, Mass.) equalized for the visitors just 33 seconds into the second half.
The lead would change hands again in the 61st minute, when UMass Boston was whistled for a hand ball in the box and Macdonald placed his penalty attempt into the bottom right corner of the net.
The Beacons pulled even for a second time 59 seconds later, before Remillard gave the Golden Bears their final lead in the 65th minute. Macdonald sent a throw in from the right side, which was collected just outside the center of the box by Dunnigan. Dunnigan turned and fired a shot towards the goal, which deflected off Remillard and into the net to put Western New England ahead 3-2.
UMass Boston forced overtime with senior Elton Teixeira's (Fogo, Cape Verde) 86th minute strike, before capping the rally with freshman Guilherme Barbosa's (Saugus, Mass.) game-winner 4:23 into the overtime session.
Western New England (7-6, 5-0 CCC) will look to keep its perfect conference record intact on Saturday afternoon, when the Golden Bears visit Endicott College for a 3:30 p.m. contest. UMass Boston (11-2, 3-1 LEC) returns to action on Friday night at Western Connecticut State University.
