In the third place game going into the 4th quarter with the Sabres down by 5, she hit five 3 point shots to help the Sabres go on a 20-4 run and the win. Coach Kelli Sinnock states, "Cali is an extremely hard worker who brings intensity, athleticism and skill to each game. She is a great teammate on and off the court".
