Message: [QUOTE="Zarathustra, post: 4706293, member: 11285"] NEXT UP is Israel who was 73 - 70 loser in their first game. Israel is somewhat shorter than Portugal. Israel has one player playing in the western hemisphere. Rinot (sp) from the U of Toronto, Canada. Portugal FG % 44.6 Israel 35 %; Portugal 80% on F.T to 66% for Israel. Big scorer for Israel: Karsh with 20 points (5'8"). Israel had more steals than Portugal 15 to 12. So there appears to be quickness on both teams. I 'll give the edge to Portugal: more USA/Canadian collegiate players, some height advantage and, of course: INES!! Ines was the second leading scorer for Portugal, 15 points, with Ms. Barreto #10, from Ball State, leading with 23 points. Barreto plays with Nika Muhl's sister, Hana, at Ball State. GO HUSKY!! The game is scheduled for 8:30 AM Sunday Morning. [/QUOTE]
