Jillian's dream of playing in the Olympics again ended today as New Zealand lost its second game in the Olympic Qualifying Tournament.
The loss was a close one – to Argentina, 54-51. Here is a game report and the box score.
In other OQT action today, Turkey won its second game and have advanced to the quarterfinals where they'll play against either the Czech Republic or Argentina on Friday. There are four quarterfinal games; the winners go to the Olympics; the losers play each other on Saturday and Sunday for the final Olympics spot.
Whatever the outcome for Turkey, Kristen Newlin's Olympics dream ended last week when she was cut from the national team.
So, no Cardinal hoopsters – current or past – will play in the London 2012 Olympics. I'll enjoy the games anyway and begin dreaming about 2016 when Nneka will have had four years of professional basketball experience and Chiney two.
