TO doesn't have to mean, "because she wanted to..."
TO can mean "in order to"
I think you missed my point. The assumption was that she stopped to avoid a collision. However it is possible that she merely stopped to field the ball and there would not have been a collision. Assuming what might happen is often different that what actually does happen. Hence my assertion that she was not interfered with - she made the play.
