Esbjerg, Denmark (AP) — Emma Peschel made her debut for the United States in an ice hockey match, scoring a goal that contributed to a 5-0 victory over Germany. The 22-year-old defender put the ball in the back of the net with a wrist shot from the point, making it 2-0 in the first period. Casey O’Brien opened the scoring for the U.S. and added an assist in her second game, following her debut goal and assist in a 7-0 win against Switzerland.
Alex Carpenter scored the third goal, and Abbey Murphy and Joy Dunne each added one for the U.S. Captain Hilary Knight added an assist, raising her record for assists with 54 and points to 122. Caroline Harvey provided two assists, totaling five in two games. Goalkeeper Gwyneth Philips recorded a shutout, conceding only 13 shots.
The U.S. will face Austria in the next match. In Group B, Sweden bounced back from a 5-1 loss to Canada by defeating Finland 4-1.
