The U.S. beat Canada 3-2 in overtime to win the Women's U18 World Hockey Championship.
Defenseman Jincy Dunne of Missouri scored two goals including the game winner for the U.S. team. This was Dunne's third trip to the world tournament and first gold medal. The U.S. women won silver the other two times.
