Olson's performance was impressive as she constantly brought it . She attacked the rim, knocked down some long range shots, and that stop and pop- pull up midrange jumper was a killer.

Wang is that X factor on the team with two D-1 guards and a D-1 big. Wang also was excellent at breaking down the defense in transition and making excellent passes to the perimeter shooters in transition.&nbsp;<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><br><br><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
