LOS ANGELES — Gabbie Hughes scored twice and the United States women’s national hockey team improved to 2-0 in its Rivalry Series with a 5-2 win over Canada on Saturday.

The Americans now enjoy a three-game winning streak over their cross-border rivals dating to a 6-3 win in the gold-medal game of the women’s world championships in April. The Rivalry Series is a lead up to the world championships, which will be held in Utica, New York, from April 3-14. With the game tied at 1, Canadian defender Sophie Jaques' pass through the middle of her own zone was intercepted by Curl, who stepped toward the net and had her shot get a piece of Campbell, with the puck trickling inside the right post with 8:09 left in the second period.

The 23-year-old Jaques was making her Canadian national team debut, following her senior season at Ohio State where she was college women’s hockey’s top player in winning the Patty Kazmaier Memorial Award last season.
