The women’s hockey team from Switzerland has struggled in its first two games in the 2010 Winter Olympics. They were shut out 3-0 by Sweden in their first game and were trounced by favorite and host Canada 10-1 on Monday. University of Maine fans, though, have a reason to cheer for the Swiss squad. Freshman forward Darcia Leimgruber scored the only goal of the tournament thus far in Monday’s game against Canada. Leimgruber played in six games for the Black Bears earlier this year, but has been training with the Swiss team for the rest of the year. Her team was in action last night when they took on Slovakia in a 10 p.m. contest.
