Mulligan then connected with Chante Bonds for a touchdown just before halftime as the U.S. trailed, 19-12, at the break.

The U.S. cut the deficit to 19-18 in the third quarter as Donna Spilotras caught a short touchdown pass from Mulligan. It was all Canada from there, though, as Canada scored the final two touchdowns to pull away. The U.S. Women's team was composed of athletes from the New York Sharks, D.C. Divas, and Pittsburgh Passion.

Three members of the U.S. Women's Team earned All-Tournament honors - wide receiver Adrienne Smith, defensive back Bonds and defensive back Sharon Vasquez.
