It was the 22-year-old’s crazy shooting percentage in the second quarter that led her team to a break the game open after draining eight of her 12 attempts from the field in just 14 minutes of play.
Chen Yuti also came up big for Shih Hsin after scoring 14 points on four treys and three steals while Lin Die added 14 points, six boards, four steals, and two assists.
