Game Notes: Caledonia Gladiators 61 – 59 Oaklands Wolves

There’s a presence to Ri Harris. When she’s on the court, she sees it all—and her teammates know it.

They look to her in the post, and if she’s not open, Ri is already pointing to where the ball should go. She knows who’s open, and more often than not, the ball ends up exactly where she directs it.

This quiet communication carries over to the defensive end. Whether in open play or during out-of-bounds plays, she’s constantly organising, always aware.

It’s not loud or flashy, but it’s effective. It doesn’t show up in the box score, but you can see evidence it in her team-leading +10 plus-minus. Ri Harris’ influence is subtle, steady, and essential.
