Danielle Drews, player of United States:
It was a good team win we were able to use our
entire lineup and everyone did their job and we
were able to come successful as a group, I think
Mexico is a good team they play good defense and
I wish them good luck the rest of the
tournament.

It seemed like a very difficult game for us. The
United States is a fairly strong team with young
players, but with a lot of experience We had
already faced them in the last Pan American Cup,
this time we tried to give our best on the court
but we could not achieve the victory. |
