Seimone Augustus: When it first started for me, I was all about showing the fans a good time because I didn’t know what to expect. I didn’t even think I would get through the first obstacle, but once I advanced to the second round I took it a little more serious. It was the veteran vs. the rookie and I’m saying who they were, but there was some betting going on so I had to lock in and focus for the rookies and represent.

Seimone Augustus: Overall I think we did well. I know that Cappie would have liked to play a little better but for four rookies to be a part of it is amazing. But I think we represented ourselves well and to show that the future of the league is in great hands with the rookies we have.
