All five games today ended up more or less as expected, but the Group B teams showed they can hang in there with the top four — there were no embarrassing results today.
I believe but am not 100% sure that the 5-8 ranking will go Czech Republic, Germany, Japan, Switzerland. Will confirm in a later post.
USA 4 vs Japan 0
Maddie Rooney gets the start aganst Nana Fujimoto, although USA is sensible enough to have Rigsby on the bench just in case. Hannah Brandt is scratched yet again, no one seems to have the story on that.
