Message: [QUOTE="Zarathustra, post: 4344385, member: 11285"] Post-game interview with Aaliyah Edwards on: [URL="http://www.sportsnet.ca/basketball"]www.sportsnet.ca/basketball[/URL] "Edwards Leads Canada women to win over Belgium..." In the interview Aaliyah comments that she would love to see Canada win the tournament on her 'Birthday Weekend" (this weekend coming up)> Of Note Phillipina Kyei, 6'8" Canadian took her citizenship oath on July 4th to be eligible to play in the game. She is from Ghana. Her name is pronounced " CHAY". The citizenship progress on July 4th included the Oath of Citizenship and singing " O Canada". Her coaches and some teammates were there to help and celebrate. The oath was done by way of "ZOOM". I guess they wanted her to play!! You have to be a citizen to play on the National team! Z [/QUOTE]
