Johnny Hooper (Los Angeles, CA/California/Olympic Club) scored four goals to lead the USA attack with Drew Holland (Orinda, CA/Stanford/Olympic Club) going the distance in net recording nine saves. Team USA went 2/8 on power plays and 3/3 on penalties with Australia going 6/12 on power plays and 1/2 on penalties. Team USA led 3-2 after the first quarter and 7-5 at halftime. Australia battled back with a big third period outscoring Team USA 4-1 to pull ahead 9-8. In the fourth both teams delivered four goals apiece leading to the one goal win for Australia.
In the women's victory Maggie Steffens (Danville, CA/Stanford/NYAC), Maddie Musselman (Newport Beach, CA/UCLA/CdM Aquatics) and Aria Fischer (Laguna Beach, CA/Stanford/SET) all scored two goals in the victory. Ashleigh Johnson (Miami, FL/Princeton/NYAC) posted six saves in net. The USA Women built a one goal lead after one quarter and led by two goals at intermission. Defense took charge in the third with just two combined goals as Australia looked to rally. The Aussies outscored Team USA by one in the fourth but couldn't come all the way back. 
Both the Australian and Men's Women's teams raised $2200 for the State volunteer firefighters in the bushfire appeals.  They'll be donating $100 per goal for the remaining two test matches as well with funds raised going towards Australian Red Cross and WWF.
