“We identified our threats really fast; they threw a couple of lineups in, but I think we adapted really well, and we worked together as a team better than we have yet,” said Froese, who had five rebounds.

“We were super excited going into that game, and the result was exactly what we wanted. These are emotional games going into them, especially coming off our win against China on Saturday. We needed a big win today, and that was what the team wanted to come home with, and it’s exactly what we did on the court.”

Canada will finish the group stage with a game against Great Britain on Tuesday at Carleton University.
