Australian Opals lose to Serbia in quarter finals

Dallas Wings guard Erin Phillips scored 10 points in Wednesday’s quarter finals game against Serbia. But her strong contribution wasn’t enough to score a win.
Phillips is competing in the Olympics as part of the Australian Opals basketball team. In the first week of play, the Opals were undefeated. Serbia, competing for the first time in Olympics competition, beat Australia 73-71.
This is the first time since the 1992 games in Barcelona that the Opals didn’t win a medal in women’s basketball.
