ELMIRA, N.Y. - The Elmira Jackals announced today that they will host a public watch party on Thursday, February 20 at Noon for the Winter Olympics Women's Hockey gold medal game between the United States and Canada.
Kasey Bellamy is competing in her second Winter Olympic Games after helping the United States win silver in 2010 at the Vancouver Games. This year, in Sochi, she has a goal and an assist in four games to help the U.S. go 3-1-0 and reach the gold medal game against Canada. Kasey scored her first goal of the tournament in Monday's 6-1 semifinal win over Sweden, and will try to help her team avenge the 2010 loss to Canada in Vancouver.

Faceoff is scheduled for Noon, EST and SplitRock opens at 11:00 a.m. so get here early to claim your seat!
