As I was watching Kia put on that outstanding exhibition of shooting and her reactions as the game progressed it reminded me of the game she played during the Pan AM games of a couple of years ago. I remember the look of determination, the no one was going to stop her look, against the US team that included Stewie and Moriah.

If Kia plays with that determination the rest of the tournament I'll feel a lot more confident of a NC.
