That continued with their win against Canada today.  In this case it was the Hildago show and she made Canada's veterans look silly.  She made great plays against everyone, and had an insane steal off of Swords when it looked like Swords had her beat.

The guard play of the US was the key in this game as the forwards and posts didn't have much impact offensively.  This was a tad surprising as I thought Canada's lack of depth would have been an issue, however Kayla Alexander was able to get a double double in 27 minutes of play.

The big takeaway for me from this game is that Canada's guard play is still an issue, even when you factor Carleton and Nurse into the equation.  Day-Wilson isn't the answer at this point.  Her stats this tournament do not justify her being a starter.  Colley lost her composure and fouled out on a tech after how she reacted on a non-call when trying to make a lay up.  Swords and Gibb may be the future, but they're still young and they're not true point guards.  It will be interesting to see what the next squad looks like during the next part of the qualification phase.
