Jackie 37 mins, 23 pts, 53% fg, 3-5 threes, 5 rbs, 6 asts, 2 stls
Marina 36 mins, 9 pts, 35% fg, 1-6 threes, 6 rbs, 4 asts, 2 stls, 2 blks
Sky 33 mins, 25 pts, 50% fg, 3-5 threes, 2 rbs, 6 asts, 1 stl, 1 blk
Bri 34 mins, 3 pts, 33% fg, 6 rbs, 1 ast, 2 stls, 1 blk
Jess 31 mins, 6 pts, 50% fg, 13 rbs, 5 asts, 1 stl
KMac 29 mins, 18 pts, 64% fg, 1-4 threes, 1 rb, 3 asts, 5 stls
Arike 24 mins, 14 pts, 42% fg, 2-7 threes, 1 rb, 1 ast
Ace 18 mins, 12 pts, 83% fg, 6 rbs, 2 asts, 1 stl

So as mentioned the Artichoke that bottom team in the WNBA won with the most ND alumnus (3) as KMac lead the Lynx w/18 pts and 5 steals! Jess & Ace came off the bench with Jess still leading the team in minutes. Ace after not playing for 6 wks lead the Lynx in FG% being incredibly productive in only 18 minutes getting 6 rebounds/2 assists. Bri lead the Mercury in mins while Sky led all scorers with 25 pts in the loss. Jackie continued her stellar year in their loss to the Sky leading the 1st place Aces in mins and pts. Marina played the most minutes for Dallas as she hit a late 3 as they fell short on their comeback at Atlanta. Neither her nor Arike shot well in the loss.

Fun to see Ace back and only Jewell not playing last night out of the 9.


Oops. The Phoenix NBA team is the Suns, but the WNBA Sun

are from Connecticut and have no Notre Dame players. So I assume you meant the Mercury, as they played the Lynx last night. All the Irish players on the Lynx (McBride, Shepard, Achonwa) had very good games and the Lynx won. Skylar played great in a losing effort but Turner needs to contribute more.


Shep, Ace Gave Lynx great 1-2 Punch Inside...Off Bench

- Shep: 31 minutes, 6 pts, 13 rebounds and 5 assists. The latter two categories show why Jess is so important. If she's not scoring, she's doing other things to help the team.

- Ace: 18 minutes, 12 points (5-6 from the field), 6 rebounds.

I think Cheryl Reeve likes having Jess' versatility off the bench to see where she can help. On the other hand, Milic only played 8 or so minutes last night, but Dantas was in 22 minutes.

Interestingly, having Ace coming back meant that Elissa Cunane's hardship contract was terminated.


My bad! Thanks *
