For the second game in a row, the Lynx got down, rallied, but came up short as they fell to the Liberty 77-76.

Candice Wiggins had a new career high and Anna DeForge and Seimone Augustus combined to add 30 points for the Lynx. Wiggins had a shot to win the game, but thanks to solid defense by Essence Carson, it did not fall and Cathrine Kraayeveld collected the rebound.

The Liberty had a balanced offensive attack, did a better job of sharing the ball and outrebounded the Lynx. New York is currently starting a rookie backcourt, but is receiving valuable experience and leadership from their frontcourt according to Patty Coyle.

New York now is above .500 on the season.
