USA – Canada Series Results

Channel 4, WTVY, might have spelled USA Goalie Gabe Goodreau’s name wrong, but they have confirmed what many have suspected for years. Just as Jerry West was the inspiration for the NBA’s logo, Gabe “the Logo” Goodreau is the inspiration for USA Team Handball’s.

The USA Men hosted Canada for a series of 4 matches this past weekend in Alabama.  The series was split 2-2 and the results are below:

Friday, 9 June (at Auburn)
Game 1: USA 32, Canada 29
Game 2: Canada 32, USA 24

Saturday, 10 June (at Dothan)
Game 3: Canada 29, USA 28

Sunday, 11 June (at Auburn)
Game 4: USA 21, Canada 20

The match in Dothan was played in conjunction with the Alabama State Games and it gave an opportunity for the elementary kids participating in the State Games to see the U.S. National Team in action.  The game was close with Canada prevailing 29-28 in overtime.

Channel 4, WTVY, in Dothan did a segment on the games and they have video from the youth tournament and the USA – Canada match starting at 2:42.
