Marino leads the way for NZ

13/AUG/2008 – Lightning guard Angela Marino has had a quality start to her 2008 Olympics campaign with New Zealand.

In her first game, during which New Zealand beat Mali 76-72, Marino had a team-high 19 points.

Two days later, she had seven points in New Zealand's 62-85 loss to Spain, while today she had an equal team-high of 14 in her team's 63-80 loss to host nation China.

New Zealand have two games remaining, against the Czech Republic and United States.
