Canada's women's basketball team has its first win of the Tokyo Olympics.
Chatham's Bridget Carleton had 18 points and seven rebounds, four assists, and a blocked shot to lead Canada over South Korea 74-53.
"It was a great game," Carleton said. "Obviously it was important for us to get that W. We treated it as a must-win and that's what we were able to do with 40 minutes of good basketball, our style of basketball."
The win was a bounce-back victory for Canada, who fell to Serbia 72-68 in the team's Olympic opener on Monday.
The Canadians are 1 and 1 in the group stage. Up next they will face Spain on Saturday at 9 p.m. ET.
