North american cup update

Greetings everyone! after the first win against the brits we went into the aussie game with alot of momentum. This momentum was key because this very physical australian team came to play. The first half went back and forth both teams struggling to get control of the games tempo. After two quaters the game was tied. At half time we figured out some weaknesses in their lineups and also found out ways to put each other in successful situations. The second half belonged to the USA and we rolled to an easy victory. Day two began with a highly anticipated matchup against the canadians. With both teams undefeated up to that point everyone was eager to see which of the powerhouses would prevail. We came out fired up jumping out to a nice lead in the first quarter. The seond quarter the canadians fought back and brought it within three to end the half. We threw a big punch in the third quarter and brought the lead to double digits; however this veteran canadian team took our punch and countered it with one of their own. Hitting some huge shots down the stretch the canadians went on to defeat us. This setup a rematch against the aussies except the stakes were higher. The winner between USA and australia takes on the winner of Great britain and canada. A more determined Australian team stepped out on the floor against us. Even after taking the loss against canada earlier that day we did a tremendous job not showing weakness. This game bounced back and forth until the final quarter where we established a solid lead and never let it go. Tommorrow morning is the final between th USA and Canada. It will be an amazing game. Both teams knowing the other so well and having played earlier in the tournament it will be something to see. I will keep you all posted on the outcome. Keep us in your thoughts. GO USA!
