London, England — Yesterday, following her team's 62–37 win over Mexico in the quarterfinals, Wikinews interviewed Katie Hill of Australia's women's national wheelchair basketball team.
((Laura Hale))  Katie Hill, we know you've won a bronze medal before. What state are you from?
((WN))   Do you play for a club?
((WN))   You guys played Mexico in the lead up to this? 
((WN))   You guys dominated in a painful way, embarrassingly for Mexico. You guys did a full court press and half court press and really jammed them up. Was that intentional?
((WN))   You're going to meet either the USA or Canada. As an American, I find that terrifying. Do you guys think you have a real shot at the [semifinals]? 
((WN))   You seemed to have all the answers to the Netherlands yesterday. Every tactic that they tried, you had a counterattack.
((WN))   Now's a good time to find real form.
((WN))   You did really well in Sydney in that tournament. 
((WN))   You have that huge fan base with all those gliders shirts. How big a difference does it make on the court?
((WN))   Who's here for you?
((WN))   Are you enjoying London, and the food and all?
((WN))   Do you plan to continue on to Rio? Or are you going to be like other Paralympians and retire on top?
((WN))   Thank you very much.
