The Unites States opened their 2010 FIL World Championships with a massive 21-5 win over Australia on Friday. Unfortunately the second game was a 10-9 loss to Canada yesterday. Given that this roster was designed to beat Canada above all else, this loss looks bad. However, it was only a single goal. Also, Canada lost to the Us in their opening round meeting back in 2006. We all know what happened when they met in the final...

The Iroquois have yet to arrive and compete. At this point, they have no chance of advancing. All indications are that they will not make any further attempts at travelling. What a shame.
