11.4 seconds are now left in a triple OT game between the US and GB.

US had Zupan - Groulx - Kirkland - Regier on the floor, and substituted the 3-2-2-1 lineup. GB had the 3 - 2.5 - 2 - .5 lineup on the floor.

With time running out, GB's Troye Collins got a reach penalty, and the final score became 39-38 for the US, and a big sigh of relief was heard from the spectators who were intently watching the game, which went in to TRIPLE OVERTIME!!!

At one point it was 36-35 for GB, with 3.3 seconds left, and the US scored to push the game in to overtime.

In the CAN - NZL game, we played more of our main lines, as did the Kiwis, and played a more controlled and patient game than in the earlier game against the US. It was enough for our first major victory over the defending Paralympic Champions in several years. The final score was 33-32 for Canada.

Meanwhile in basketball, it was GB 80 - US 57.

Our third and final game of the day will be against the Brits at 5:00pm local time.
