Message: [QUOTE="cancontent, post: 4436401, member: 10709"] I'll always have a soft spot for her because of her dedication to Canada Basketball throughout her entire career. It's been 20+ years if my math is right. Her situation is unique because her development was managed differently from what you see in Canada now. When she was in high school, there was an elite training program that was run in Hamilton ON where players identified by Canada basketball attended. This was disbanded in the mid-2000s when a different government was elected in 2004. Personally, I think this decision put Canada back at least 15 years in progress. She's always represented Canada when asked. She's played overseas in addition to a WNBA schedule since graduating from Notre Dame (save for that one year due to her injury). She's a great leader for the program and continues to be one. For as much as UConn fans may have their druthers about her, you can't say she's not committed to the sport or her teammates. [/QUOTE]
