Yes i think so but it took them 45 hours or something to get there. DeShields posted about it

15-10 Brazil end of first.
If Brazil hadn’t forced a few of those bad passes, they’d probably be up more.

I see that Deshields' shooting confidence is still far ahead of her shooting skills.

People should keep in mind that they have to find players for this tour and tournament that are either retired from international ball, never had an interest in international ball, or juggling their international schedule in hopes of making the Olympic team. Probably should be thankful that they can put together a team that’s even this good.

Absolutely right. This was put together by Bird and DT. who I believe along with Augustas are attempting to use this to assure themselves a spot on the team. The eight core players have committed themselves throughout. They are giving up the salary they would have made overseas to do this. I think that is the edge some of them are counting on as their edge. A bit of Look what we gave up.
The Olympic committee is funny in that respect, they want to see you in their camp or you really have no chance. They would really prefer you come up within their system so if you were ever a part of their system that gives you an edge. That is why Chelsea Gray committed to the core. She has never played for the National team at any level. If you have never played for them they do not care how good you are.
