In a highly anticipated matchup between the Cardinals and the California Golden Bears, both of the teams showcased their exceptional skills and talents, but like every other sport, in basketball matches, there can be only one winner, and it was the Cardinals as they ended the match with a final score of 78-51. While this was an impressive win by the Cardinals Ladies as they won their third straight match, a moment of brilliance by Brink caught the attention of fans.
During the third quarter of this matchup, Cameron Brink had possession of the ball, and with her razzle-dazzle skills, she made her way to take a layup. Being one of the best players in the league, she made that layup. However, the whole stadium went silent as during the landing process, she landed on her right-hand wrist. Following this fall, Brink was seen in visible pain and decided to get subbed out, to consult with her trainer.
While many spectators thought Brink was done for the day, she surprised everyone. With her unbreakable determination and sheer will, she taped her hand and got right back in the game. The stadium, once hushed with concern, erupted in cheers as she led the Cardinals to a flawless victory.
