Betty had 17, but about 10 of them came when the game was pretty much over (with 3 mins or so to go, team up by 15).. I'm glad they got their 1st win though, they don't seem to be a bad team and could have already had a couple of wins if they played better defense. They've had leads and lost them too easily..

Go Meka!
