WASHINGTON -- China beat Sweden 6-4 in Lake Placid on Saturday evening for its third straight win in the women's curling round robin of the 31st Winter World University Games.

The Chinese team, the 9-5 winner over Spain on Friday, also collected a 9-2 victory against Switzerland on Saturday morning.

"We've had a good start, but we can take nothing for granted," said China coach Yu Zuojun. "We will play some real tough opponents in the next few days, such as South Korea, Japan, the United States and Canada. We are going to take one game at a time and try to do as well as we can."

China, Britain and South Korea shared the lead at the standings with a 3-0 record with the top four finishers of the 10-team round robin to qualify for the semifinals, which were slated for Thursday.
