| July 5, 2000 Canada comes back with
a win against The Netherlands
Los Alamitos (California) - A day after a lost against the
USA, the Canadian women's waterpolo team defeated The Netherlands 5 to 4 Wednesday, at the
Los Alamitos Holiday Cup. Montreal's Ann Dow, with two goals in the first half, and
goalkeepers Josée Marsolais and Isabelle Auger played a great match. Calgary's Cora
Campbell, Johanne Bégin from Ste-Foy and Waneek Horn-Miller from Kanawake completed the
score for Canada.
"Against the Americans, we didn't play well defensively. We did against the
Netherlands, said Ann Dow who had a lucky goal at the beginning of the game. Last night
(Tuesday) we would hesitate a lot. Tonight, we kept talking to each other and Josée and
Isabelle made the big saves in the net."
"It's true we played well defensively, added Johanne Bégin, a police officer. I
personally had 4 or 5 steals in the centre. I'm proud of having responded to the new task
the coaches gave me".
Thursday, Canada will play against Kazakhstan. The six national teams who will be at the
first women's water-polo olympic tournament in Sydney, are playing the Holiday Cup.
