Norwegian U-20 in Germany

Written by: Evan Andriopoulos on 11/15/2000 Subscribe to HF's RSS Feed

The National U-20 team appeared once again in the German Four Nations Tourney in Fussen that featured a USHL (USA) all star club made up of primarily 18 year olds as well as National U-20 team (Under 20) from Germany and Switzerland and were sent home packing.

Norway started with a 9-2 loss to Germany followed by a 10-2 blasting by the more physical US team and a 7-1 defeat by the more experienced Swiss.

The National Team was included up and comers Patrick Thoresen (Storhamar) and Lars Nagel (MS) but were simply overmatched. The National Junior Team is preparing for the World Junior B tourney also in Fussen, Germany later in December. While the prognosis is not good for a move up to Group A there is still a shot and much pressure lies on the shoulders of Thoresen and Nagel.
