🔮 Gavran was attended to and stayed in until stepping aside for backup William Yarbrough.
🔮 The players and head coach Sandy Brondello reflected on the team’s first season Saturday after concluding an 11-33 campaign with a loss to the Connecticut Sun two days earlier “The thing that you will never forget is that you were part of this first season, this first team for Canada,” Tempo point guard Julie Allemand said.
🔮 But we need to play tougher, and no matter what, maybe the last few games don’t mean anything, but we are building something more.
🔮 Brondello urged her players to up their work ethic because Toronto likely will be without its top offensive players Brittney Sykes (left foot) and Marina Mabrey (right adductor) for the remainder of the season.
