McDONOUGH Ashlyn Fluker thought her three-point shot wasnt going to be strong enough. She was so worried about it clanking off the rim that she eased up hoping to find just the right touch to cap Union Groves fourth-quarter comeback. But as the shot left her hand with a little over four seconds on the clock, it didnt feel quite right.
I thought ... that it was going to be an air ball, Fluker said.
