A tough night shooting the ball from long range did not stop Wakefield from having a big impact and leaving her imprint on the game. Defensively, Wakefield had an elite performance. Not sure which are quicker her hands or her feet, but both were in constant movement and were very disruptive to the guards from Holy Innocents. In about a 7-8 second sequence at the top of the key one of the Weavers, who are very talented ball handlers, did everything they could to shake Wakefield, yet she kept chopping her feet and remained in right in front of her. Wakefield looked good attacking the baseline and slashing towards the basket. Im not sure I have seen a quicker player on the defensive end all year long. Wakefield’s offensive reputation precedes her, so it was nice to see maximum effort and her competitiveness even though her shots weren’t falling.
