Field hockey is a sport that takes a lot of different abilities and tactics than any other kind of hockey. As the Rio Olympics 2016 continue on, the United States will be looking to get a medal in a sport that involves running with the ball, bounce passes and jump shots going towards the net. It is a very different game that most people are used to. Maybe the Americans can find a way to surprise the rest of the world and win the event.
