..than the first game. Wouldn't be surprised to see yet another different one in the game against Puerto Rico.

Given that this is a regional tournament and a lot of the other teams simply don't have the depth of talent that the U.S. does, think the "wave" or "line" approach (as in hockey) taken by what's his name is a sound one. Wears the other teams down, get to see different combinations of players with each other and everyone plays, thereby keeping morale and interest high.

We'll see what happens further down the line.

Based on one-half of the Chile game:
- Anaya and Brown, although they have different styles, are fundamentally sound floor leaders.
- Anaya's solidly built and can play outside-in with ease. She will be able to play combo guard, if need be.
- C. Williams has got a lot of Arike in her.
- N. Smith is very talented. Good get for Baylor.
- Prince. Too bad about (most) Texans wanting to stay close to the Lone Star state (at one point, I seem to recall some mutual interest with ND). For a 6'7" post, she moves pretty well and seems to get what that height is all about. She's into the game, too.

Go U.S.'ers
