Tokyo, Japan - In its second match of the Paralympic Games in Tokyo the USA Wheelchair Rugby team found itself trailing Canada in the first half. Both teams strangely started the game in dark jerseys, Canada in black and USA in blue. In the second half the USA came out of the locker room in white jerseys. You might say the color change sparked the team because the U.S. turned things around in the final two quarters. They took advantage of some Canada turnovers and made some incredible passes and catches to defeat Canada 58-54. The win improved their record to 2-0. Team USA will take on Great Britain on Thursday night (U.S. Time) hoping to remain undefeated in pool play.
