Canadian Women 5th at
PAGs
The Canadian women win their final match at the Pan American Games
beating Trinidad and Tobago 6-0.
Having set a performance target of finishing in the top three,
the Canadian women were not able to advance out of their pool having
lost to the USA 3-0, as well as only drawing 1-1, with Uruguay.
Qualifying through the PAGs for the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens
was always a long shot for the Canadian women. To do so, the women
would need to have defeated the current world champions, Argentina,
in the gold medal match.
