Canada's men's national field hockey team placed third at Round 2 of the World League international competition in St. Germain, France on Sunday.
Canada, including Burnaby's Gabriel Ho-Garcia and Matthew Bissett of New Westminster, missed a chance for an automatic qualifying berth into the semifinals following a 3-2 loss to their hosts in the final game of the round-robin, won by Belgium.
The Canadians finished with a 3-2 record in the competition, with wins over Scotland, Portugal and Poland.
David Jameson opened the scoring in the fifth minute off a rebound for the Maple Leaf. Team captain Scott Tupper made it 2-0 on a penalty corner later in the first half.
