Another pre-game story. https://www.idsnews.com/article/2021/08/iu-womens-soccer-aims-to-stay-undefeated-ahead-of-clash-with-ut-martin-thursday

Brazil picked up its first win of the event with a 73-31 win over Costa Rica. Guyton played 26 min. and scored 18 pts. on 5-8 FG; 4-5 on 3s; 4-5 FT. She had 7 reb; 4 asst; 1 TO; 2 stls. She was the leading scorer for Brazil and you can bet there's one proud papa walking around tonight. Tomorrow is an off day and games resume on Friday with Brazil's opponent to be determined.

UT Martin preview. Apparently there will be no live stats available. https://iuhoosiers.com/news/2021/8/25/womens-soccer-hoosiers-set-to-host-ut-martin-thursday-travel-to-memphis-sunday.aspx?fbclid=IwAR3bQmQnRJpLC1XWkMmRtmU4QGRCb2r-vPVyYQVQ0f10F_qtaNkxIiKfVks

I failed to point out that in today's game against Chile he did not have any turnovers in 15 min. of play nor did he have any in the game against Dominican Republic in 11 min. of game time. Sounds like he got rid of any jitters against Puerto Rico.

Another romp for the USA pounding Chile 138-59 and setting another point record for the USA team. Fears played 15 min. and scored 8 pts. on 4-6 FG; 0-1 on 3s. He had 2 reb; 6 asst; 2 stl. Next game is on Friday with the opponent and time to be determined.

Schedule update. Tomorrow's match against UT Martin has been pushed back to an 8:00 start due to concerns about the heat.
