Looks like a great experience for the team. I did notice that with Elena de Alfredo's departure from the team it appears that Madrid has understandably been scratched from the itinerary.
I was hoping they'd be able to fit in a side trip to Toledo, Spain. Would have been a neat opportunity to connect with our "true" sister city.

that sounds like a good idea.
Was that ever brought up to Coach???
Coach Cullop interviewed just before the first game of the trip. It doesn't start right away; you'll see the coach talking with an official just before the interview starts. Haven't seen any score updates yet.
This is on something called Periscope TV. Here's the link.

I think Toledo was down by as many as nine points in the first half. Tricia started both Monakana and Bravo-Harriott but they haven't practiced with the team yet, that and some poor shooting in the first two quarters didn't help the cause. There were some professional players on the Barking Abbey team.
Channel 11's Jordan Strack, traveling with the team, tweeted that: "Toledo fans are going to love Mikaela Boyd. Flashy, quick, and fun to watch."

Brenae Harris was named Toledo's MVP of the exhibition game and received the treasured "golden basketball" following the game.

According to Google, they beat either a nunnery or a secondary school.
???
Did a google map on a street in the neighborhood of that school. I don't think London living is my cup of tea.
Hope this works
