3 x 3 today

[Phil]

USA beats Hungary 21-8

 

[Phil]

That Greece Russia game was quite the result. Greece was 2-3 with one of their wins over hapless Nepal, and Russia was 5-0.

 

[Phil]

Australia beats CZE.

 

[UcMiami]

USA Women on to the semis with a 21 - 8 win over Hungary. they have played 7 games and have yet to play 10 minutes, scoring 21+ in every game.
USA will play at 11 AM tomorrow against Australia and then at either at 1 PM or 1:30 PM.
This is going to be interesting - they could play Australia in the semis and France for the gold - sound familiar?!!

That Greece Russia game was quite the result. Greece was 2-3 with one of their wins over hapless Nepal, and Russia was 5-0.

So Russia ends up 5-1 and goes home early. They certainly did not look like a 5-0 team today.

 

[Phil]

Greece will have their hands full with the Ukraine. UKR beat the clock in every game except their loss to Australia. They beat Estonia by a wider margin (just barely) than the USA. Good Luck Greece, but I don;t know if lightning can strike twice.

Greece UKR on now

UKR scored first four, then Greece hit a 2

 

[Phil]

UKR up 8-3, Greeks in panic, taking and missing 2s

 

[Phil]

Their drives to the basket work, their outside shots, not so much

 

[Phil]

Greece take a long shot and hit, but one foot inside, so only one point.


Greece fouled on a made shot

UKR 10- 9

 

[Phil]

UKR hits a big 2. Greeks running out of time

 

[Phil]

wow, behind the back on a drive to basket, but too little too late

 

[Phil]

Greece isn't quitting, but down by 2 with a minute to go

 

[Phil]

one point
and UKR TO

 

[Phil]

Greece takes a good looking two at the buzzer. If good it it is tied, but it missed.
