Charles helps Liberty knock off Fever

The Liberty may have played the Fever last night, but it was Tina Charles who was burning up as the Liberty cruised to an 86-79 victory at the Garden.

Charles led all scorers with a season-high 21 points, and she has now led the Liberty in scoring in all three games they have played this season.

The Liberty (2-1), who shot 49% from the field last night, will look to continue their hot shooting when they host the Mercury tomorrow night in what will be the second game of their four-game homestand.
