Women’s 3-on-3 squad feeling ‘betrayed’ as they won’t be going to Tokyo 2020
The city of Edmonton once boasted the best women’s basketball program in the world.
From 1915 to 1940, the Edmonton Grads won 502 games and lost only 20, beating the world’s best teams from America and Europe.
Fast forward to the present, where behind the star power of Edmonton-born twins Michelle and Katherine Plouffe, the city is back in a position of dominance, though not in the 6-on-6 game the Grads played, but rather the new Olympic sport of 3×3.
