Has anyone else noticed that Levchenko on the Russian team looks, acts, and plays like Caroline Doty?
 
Collier is the antithesis of Wilson; she can't get any call in her favor.
 
I like Dangerfield as a facilitator much more than a shooter

Didn't think of it that way, but I sorta see it.

She's absolutely beasted it out there, with 13 pts / 10 assists /4 st / 1 t.o.

There are several of these Russian players are great!

Ha.... thats what I was thinking earlier
 
Collier with 10 points, 10 rebounds, 6 steals, 3 assists. She deflected another ball for a steal she wasn't credited for and the early block.
 
Credit to the posts for carrying the team 0n offense. Even White, who was quite competent today. Credit also for Dangerfield for managing to do good work on what was not necessarily her best day (shootingwise). And Collier, for doing her Collier thing, of course.
 
Lots of credit to Gabby Ortiz' father (in the stands with the blue t-shirt emblazoned with the American flag, waving the USA flag) who shouted non-stop encouragement to the team amidst a sea of Ruskies. He's like that during NCAA ball, pretty much traveling to every one of his daughter's games. Good dad!
 
Crystal Dangerfield was running the team down the stretch in the 4th quarter. She was composed running the offense after forcing the ball in the 1st half. It was good to see the Dawn had confidence in Crystal a HS Senior to be to run team with the game on the line. Has to improve her defense a bit though :). She went below screens to leave her player open for wide open 3's.
 
Collier makes the All tournament team. A'ja Wilson also make the All Tournament team.

As expected A'ja Wilson wins the MVP. Definitely deserved it based on how she played in this tournament and in this Gold Medal Game.
 
Wilson also on all-tourney team (+ 2 Russians and a very pretty Australian)

Wilson is MVP

I liked the announcers.... wish they could do some of the WCBB games. They both gave credit to Slocum and Dangerfield for playing good games.

White did a good job...
 
Interesting that all tournament team is all post players. Not sure I have ever seen that. Isn't Alanna Smith from Australia an incoming freshman for the Stanford Cardinal

I think she is headed to Stanford. Her name is Alanna Smith.

Don't know him but I saw Lauren Cox' parents constantly up and cheering even though she barely played.
 
I guess Thomas will be getting her medal delivered via Fedex

The American guy's screaming after a 3 point shot was grating to me...but that might actually the equipment's fault. Couldn't handle his scream voice without audio clipping. They were otherwise good, though, especially with the cynical questioning of referee calls. :D
