48-18 at the half. Total mismatch. I know the opposition is the strongest but there's nothing that Collier can't do and very well. Rebounding, shooting (3's included), defense are all performed at a very high level. She does push the ball a little far in front of her when she dribbles (effective on a fast break but not in traffic) but that's how closely her game has to be scrutinized before you can find something she doesn't do at the very highest level.
Well next up is Canada
Russia beat this same Argentina team by 35 earlier in the tournament. It should be a good game between them and Australia. If all goes according to plan, they would meet in the semi's while we would play Belgium in the other half of the draw.
Slu,The more I watch Dangerfield the more I feel she might be able to start as a freshmen at UConn. She had 6 points, 4 steals, and no TO's in 14 minutes, and she started the second half. Her jumper looked excellent and she made a highlight-reel steal and bank-shot after a spin move
Slu,
I said the same thing a few days ago. Dangerfield's game management (control of tempo) is the best I have ever seen at any level. Maybe Chris Paul in NBA.
She and Nurse are going to be a ridiculous combo. Just when opponents think they are safe after Mo graduates...Slu,

I saw that steal and spin move (Crystal). You might well be right: She seems to be a very mature player already.Collier showed off her skills again today after an off game Monday. Her jumper is super smooth, she moves without the ball beautifully, and she causes havoc all over the court with her length, quickness, and hustle. She had 11 points (5-8 fg), 9 rebounds, 4 steals, and a block in 25 minutes.

Ali Patberg had her best game today as well. Notre Dame will continue to be the biggest threat to the Huskies, I believe.
