Also, Season 4 draft is now open, until March 23. Who will join?
Last night, in Atlanta vs Chicago, Andrea Todorovic got hurt (ankle, I think) early in the golden game but fortunately was able to resume playing after the injury timeout. She ended up winning most of the team's points, going 3-4 against Lebesson while the team lost 21-5. Tashiya Piyadasa (subbing for Mo Zhang, who is in SF for the ITTF Americas Championship) got a golden sweep against Jeet Chandra. Gardos went 6-0 against Oshima. Hopefully Andrea is able to play the rest of the weekend, or else Atlanta will need to scramble to find a replacement female player (as Minhyung Jee is at the ITTF Oceania Cup in New Zealand).
In the 2nd match (Carolina vs Texas), there were also mixed-gender matchups in the golden game. Kai Zhang went 7-0 against Kayla Goodwin (subbing for Amy Wang, also in SF). It would've been interesting if they met again for the ultimate golden point and Kayla won that. Things were heading in that direction with Texas saving a bunch of match points, before Chen Sun closed it out against Liang Guodong at 20-18.
oh right, I already forgot about thatMinhyung Jee was traded I think? Blazers got Rachel Sung instead
