Team USA 3 - 4

With the final game of the Round Robin last night Team USA finished Round Robin play and tournament play with a 12 - 1 loss to Switzerland. A tough way to end the week that started off so well for Team USA.

Heading into the Semi-Finals of the event Team Canada is in first place with a 7 - 0 record followed by Switzerland 5 - 2, and Scotland and Sweden both 4 - 3. The men's teams have one more round robin game to play, USA's Pustovar rink is in strong contention with a 4 - 0 record going into this final round robin game. The Semi-Finals will be played at 9:00am Saturday (NZT) followed by the Finals at 2:30pm (NZT). The final event of the World Championships is the Award Banquet on Saturday night. I am sure that their will be much wine drinking and celebrating happening there! I for one can not wait to hear the stories from that party!

  1. Well ol' broads, ya gave it a good ride against some very tough competition. Now it's time to get on out there and have fun, support the U.S. guys, and enjoy yourselves for the rest of the trip Be interesting to see how it comes out between Canada and Switzerland. Canada goes into it with no losses but looks like the Swiss are coming on strong. See y'all when you get back and I'll be waiting for those stories too!
