Boys Win over Finland!!!!

What a great hockey game!  It was back and forth through the 3rd period when USA finally took the lead by 2 goals. Penalties killed us once again.  i think the European style of hockey vs. the North American style is causing more penalties than we probably deserve.  Nick had an assist and continues to play well. He is somewhat out of his element playing wing, but is finding his way.  they switched up the lines a bit from the Canada game and it seems to have made a difference.  The boys have made it to the medal round as Austria did not win a game. There will be playoffs after tomorrow's preliminary rounds are complete to determine who is seeds 1st-4th. Once that has been decided, there will be a play off for who plays for the bronze and gold.  Should be exciting! We had the boys again for dinner this evening. They once again, wanted steak and pasta.  we fed them well and sent them on their way to the village.  Once again, they were filled with great stories of last evening and their take on the game.

The Jacobs girls made signs for the boys... They are so sweet....


 We are going to a castle tomorrow before the game so stay tuned for pictures. We also have a great day planned for Thursday as it is a day off for the boys..  Go USA!!!!  Beat Russia!!!
