USA Women Open Pan Am Cup with 9-0 win over Trinidad
& Tobago
BRIDGETOWN, Barbados – Tracey Fuchs
and Angie
Loy
scored two goals each to lead the USA field hockey team to
a convincing 9-0 win over Trinidad & Tobago in the opening game of the 2nd
Pan American Cup.
The eight-team
tournament serves as a qualifier for the 2006 FIH Women’s World Cup with the
tournament champion earning the continental berth in field hockey’s world
championship tournament. The World Cup is scheduled for Sept. 27 – Oct. 7, 2006 in Madrid, Spain.
Seven different USA players scored goals
in the Pan Am Cup opener while goalkeeper Amy Tran capped her second career start with the
shutout. Kristen McCann put the USA up early with a field
goal in the ninth minute and Carrie Lingo and Fuchs quickly added penalty corner goals to
give the USA a 3-0 lead 17 minutes
into the game. Loy added a penalty corner score just before halftime to give the U.S. a 4-0 halftime
advantage.
Fuchs added to the USA lead midway through
the second half before Loy, Kristi Gannon, Abbey Woolley and April Fonzoni concluded the
game with a flurry of four goals in seven minutes to end the game.
Head coach Beth Anders
and the USA continue tournament
play Tuesday against host Barbados.
