(Richmond, BC) – Despite a last-minute comeback, Team Canada went down 53-56 against the Americans and finished with a silver medal at the 2012 Canada Cup International Wheelchair Rugby Tournament.

In front of a near sold-out crowd at the Richmond Olympic Oval, the Canadians traded goals and hits with the rival Americans for the first half of the game. At halftime, the score was tied 24-24. Halfway through the third quarter, however, Canada racked up several penalties that resulted in turnovers and quickly found themselves behind by as much as six.
