She can't help but feel impressed by how good Athena is at basketball and hopes to face her again in future matches. As Athena goes in for a shot, she feels someone trip her from behind. She falls to the ground and hits her head hard on the court. The Duke team immediately surrounds her, asking if she is okay while UConn players just stand there with smug looks on their faces.
