It wasn't always pretty but Canada defeated winless Senegal 68-58 led by UConn guard Kia Nurse to set up a showdown of undefeated teams on Friday in pool play.

Nurse had 14 points as Canada improved to 3-0. The win means that Canada will finish in the top three in Group B with a two-game lead on China as well as owning the head to head tiebreaker. That is important because Australia seems headed to the Group A title so the No.
