U.S. Women Top St. Seb's, 5-2
Brookline, Mass. -- This afternoon, the 2014 U.S. Women’s Olympic Hockey Team topped St. Sebastian’s, 5-2, in a game played at Dexter-Southfield’s rink, which, by the way, was jam-packed. The game really should have been played in a college rink – Walter Brown Arena or Harvard would have been just right.

A Will D’Orsi goal 41 seconds into the game gave St. Seb’s a 1-0 lead that held into the first intermission. In the second period, the Olympians took over and dominated, as Hilary Knight, Anne Schleper, Gigi Marvin, and Kendall Coyne scored four unanswered goals to give the U.S. women a 4-1 lead after two.

In the third, Kacey Bellamy scored for the U.S., and Corey Ronan for St. Sebastian’s.

As far as we know, there was no game sheet kept – this was an exhibition – so we’re hoping we have all the scoring right.

Brianne McLaughlin played the first 30 minutes for the U.S., and Jessie Vetter took over midway through the second. Tedy Loughborough played the full game in net for the Arrows.

This typist has seen every U.S. Women’s Olympic Hockey Team – this is only the fifth edition, as the women’s game was only added to the Olympics in 1998.  And this quadrennial’s team is an extremely good one. It’s a little hard to compare Olympic Women’s teams year to year because the women’s game keeps improving at a rapid pace.

The puck movement was terrific, and it looked like the U.S. women have been playing together their whole lives and at least in the case of the Lamoureux twins – linemates Monique and Jocelyne – they have been.

Three of the five U.S. goals were scored from the point, where the Arrows had their hands full. In addition, in areas where a physical team like St. Sebastian’s has success – the corners, for example – the U.S Women really had their way. In the absence of body checking some of the St. Sebastian’s players looked a little lost. At times they seemed a little mesmerized in their own end. But, as we said, the U.S. women move the puck really well, and the powerplay was tough to defend against.

The Southfield-Dexter rink is a big sheet and this is what they’ll be playing on in Sochi next month. St. Sebastian’s coach Sean McCann took note of it afterward saying, “They have a team that executes extremely well, and on that big sheet they just did a great job.”

McCann also acknowledged that it was a “a little bit different” for his team not to be able to hit.
As many of you know, the U.S. women have had a couple of brawls in pre-Olympic matches vs. Canada in recent months. In the fall in Burlington, Vt., and then, a couple weeks ago, in a 4-1 U.S. win over Canada in Grand Forks, ND. That one, on Dec. 21st, went viral, and in case you are one of the few who missed it, here it is: US-Canada brawl with eight seconds left.

No, there was nothing like that today.

Notes:

Here is the roster for the U.S. Women’s Olympic Team. Many of the names will be familiar, from previous Olympic teams, as well as New England prep schools and colleges.

2014 U.S. Women’s Olympic Team

The team trains out of the Edge Sports Center in Bedford, Mass., and will be playing a few more games locally. We will try to give you advance warning of any more local games, as another one is on the works for this week.
