Notes on game:	Brittany Hayes drew a five meter penalty in front of the goal which was made good by Natalie Golda for an 11-10 lead. The U.S. never trailed again. "We've been stressing counter attack and half court defense. Our set defense was good and I think we accomplished what we set out to today. Any time you can play against Australia you know they are bringing their "A" game to play us," Golda said.
