gotta go with the same play...early foul trouble really hurt them last night...good luck -- hope its a winner.
================
Monarchs plan vs. Mercury
TONIGHT'S GAME
Monarchs (1-2) vs. Mercury (2-1)
THREE-POINTERS
1. The Monarchs have not been outrebounded this season. Sacramento doesn't have the tallest frontcourt, but the Monarchs do a good job of fighting for position and hustling for loose balls.
2. Ticha Penicheiro, who missed Friday's game, will travel with the team to Phoenix and will play if her sprained right thumb feels better. The offense had only eight turnovers Friday without her in the Monarchs' win.
3. The Monarchs now lead the all-time series 22-21. Sacramento is 8-14 at Phoenix.
