The United States scored with just 13:57 into the game as the Boston Fleets of the PWHL Haley Winn score to make it 1-0. United States continued to outshoot their opponents by a wide margin in this Women’s Hockey tournament. Joy Dunne scored for the United States thanks to fortuitous bounce off a Swiss defenseman to make it 2-0.  United States scored another goal to make it 3-0 in the 3rd period thanks to a goal by Hannah Bilka.  United States almost had a 4th goal in the third period, but they interfered with the Swiss goaltender.

Caroline Harvey of Salem, NH scored to make it 5-0 in the 3rd period to secure the win. They have a big test next as they take on Canada.
