You'll see more of Camille Collier - she's a heck of a bball player, and allegedly even better at soccer. She got an offer from our A team but stayed B because of WAGS soccer commitments. That was our fellow Flames team you saw, taking a very skilled Beltway Lady Cougars.
Didn't see the Sparks, but Fairfax had a good guard as well - #15. Thought she was a pretty special player too.

I was impressed with #15 also, good at taking it to the hole. I believe she was high scorer for the game. The Sparks also had a pretty good player (#3), but late in the 2nd half with Sparks down by 6 or 7, she started arguing with some of her team mates because they were not playing as hard as she was. Her coach pulled her immediately and she sat for about 3 minutes and came back. She scored 5 in a row to pull them back within 1 and they eventually lost because of Stars F/T shooting.
Overall, the coachin was pretty good although I did see a coach receive 3 T's at the end of the first half in a game at Jefferson on Saturday. Physical game with double bonus both ways and as the Vogues coach (sort of vocal in the last couple of minutes) was walking across the floor at halftime, he said something to the effect that "this is just pitiful". Official whacked him, coach said he was talking to his players (about 10 feet in front of him). Official said you were looking at me when you said it, and coach said "this is F'ing B/S", second whack and ejection. Coach turned to other official and said you need to do something about your partner, first official gave him the 3rd whack.
My friend was the first official and after the coach left, my friend said that the coach was vocal the whole game and he had told him that he didn't want to hear about it any more. I asked him why he didn't whack the coach earlier if he was continually questioning everything. He said he thought the coach might stop. Don't think so. IMHO, it never should have gotten this out of hand, but it wasn't my game and I did not see all of the first half, only saw the last 5 or 6 minutes. Hated to see something like this happen.
Sorry for the long post, but just found this interesting.
