WheelKings players winning in China
WheelKings players Liesl Tesch, Kylie Gauci and Tina MacKenzie, led by head coach Gerry Hewson, have had an excellent run representing Australia in a 4 test series against China in Beijing.
Coach Hewson says that he has done a lot of experimenting with his line-ups but, even with reduced minutes, Liesl and Kylie have still been at the forefront on the scorer's lists. Kylie top scored with 12 points in the game 1 victory (48-35) and Liesl was second highest scorer in game 2 (55-27) with 12 to her credit. Like in so many international tournaments that she's played, Liesl is also the series' leading rebounder.
