#1. Robyn Benton (5'9''-G, graduated '2023, plays pro in Spain). She could not help Celta Zorka (0-2) to beat IDK Eustotren (2-0) in the Spanish LF Endesa. Benton scored only 4 points in 13 minutes. It was her first game for Celta Zorka this season. Celta Zorka was crushed93-55 at home by the much higher-ranked (#3) IDK Eustotren. But this is still an early stage of the season and everything may happen. It's Benton's first year with the team.
#2. Experienced Jennifer O'Neill (5'5''-PG-1990, played in 2010-11, plays in Puerto Rico) was not able to help Moca (1-1) in their last game on Tuesday. Despite O'Neill's good performance Moca was defeated 71-63 on their home court in Moca by the leading Atenienses. She scored 13 points. It's O'Neill's first season with the team. O'Neill has relatively good stats this year 11.7ppg, 3.9rpg and 3.8apg. She is a naturalized Puerto Rican.
