He’s the one: US women’s goalie wants Bieber to take shot

NEW YORK (AP) Olympic goalie Maddie Rooney is challenging Justin Bieber to take his best shot.

Rooney and the U.S. women's gold-medal hockey team appeared on ''The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon'' on Monday night. She says she's still waiting for a tweet from Bieber.

Rooney says she'd like a chance to stop a shot from the hockey-playing Canadian pop star. She revealed a ''Team Bieber'' shirt under her USA jersey.

Rooney's stop of a shootout goal against Canada clinched gold for the Americans.

Jocelyn Lamoureux-Davidson's triple-fake past the Canadian goalie in the shootout is nicknamed ''Oops, I Did it Again.'' Fallon asked, ''Heard from Britney Spears?'' Lamoureux-Davidson says she did get a tweet and thought it was ''pretty cool.''

During their celebration tour, the players sat courtside and took photos with Serena and Venus Williams during a tennis match at Madison Square Garden. The team will attend home games of the New York Rangers and New Jersey Devils on Tuesday night.
