Patrick Jameison once again came on in the second half to help the United States remain unbeaten. Jameison played in the second halves of each of the three contests in pool play.
In three games, the United States has outscored its opponents 39-10 with only six of the goals being even strength tallies thanks to quality play from both Jameison and Anderson Moore.
The U.S. opened the tournament with a thrilling 7-6 win over Canada as Jameison made a last-second save to secure the win. A day later, the red, white and blue defeated the Haudenosaunee, 14-3, with a furious fourth-quarter offensive spurt.
In the final game of group action, the U.S. outshot Australia, 56-12, en route to the decisive victory.
With an unblemished Pool A showing and 57-2 all-time record in international junior men's lacrosse, the U.S. now sets sights on its 10th gold medal. As with all games during this U20 championship, Thursday's quarterfinal will be streamed live at
