OTTAWA (CP) -- Cammi Granato's second goal of the game, with 3:59 left
in the third period, gave the United States a 4-3 victory over Finland
in the final preliminary-round game Friday night of the inaugural
women's Three Nations Cup hockey tournament.

The United States, which finished 3-1, plays Canada (also 3-1) today at
the Ottawa Civic Centre for the championship. Finland finished 0-4.

Marianne Ihalainen opened the scoring for Finland with 8:14 left in the
first period, but Andrea Kilbourne tied the game for the Americans less
than two minutes later.  Sari Fisk gave Finland 2-1 at 3:44 of the
second period, but Granato tied the game at 7:20 and the Americans took
a 3-2 lead on Karyn Bye's power-play goal at 10:40. Fisk tied the game
with 4:57 left in the second.
