Guyana’s unbeaten run in the Pan American Hockey Federation Challenge continued as they contested a 1-1 stalemate against hosts Bermuda yesterday at the National Sports Centre.

The Guyanese scored first in the contest in the form of Sarah Klautky, who finished off a neatly worked penalty corner in the 12th minute.

However, the Bermudans would equalise in the 32nd minute in the form of Georgia Harris to earn a share of the spoils. Due to the outcome, Guyana climbs onto five points but remains in third place. Guyana will end their group campaign against Mexico.
