Wednesday keeper Kevin Pressman, managed to block a weak shot from Campbell with his feet and then went on to score his penalty for the Wendy's.
Striker Darren Mansaram put Grimsby in the lead in less than 3 minutes but in the 72nd minute Adam Proudlock scored the equaliser forcing extra time and eventually penalties.
But Wednesday seemed to be in charge throughout the game missing a number of good chances.
Penalties
Grimsby: Barnard, Anderson Hamilton, Onuora, Campbell (saved)
Sheffield Wednesday: Haslam, Proudlock, Pressman, Holt, Barry Murphy
The Mariners would be disappointed to lose this game against Sheffield having been previous trophy winners with Sheffield making their first entry into this competition.
