After a three point first set, McDonell kept her errors to two while racking up 16 winners in that set (an 8:1 margin). For the match McDonell generated 29 winners with a category high 10 smashes.<\/p>\n<p>The first set featured big runs by both players. McDonell grabbed the initiative early with the first run of six, with five straight winners. McDonell mixed the six with smashes and drives with one drop. The first four winners har rallies that lasted more than five strokes. McDonell was cruising at 19-9 after her second run, this time of four points with three clears when Lay Lay got hot. She took the serve back with a ten stroke smash and kept McDonell off balance which resulted in four point on errors in the Hawks\u2019 run of seven. It took three set points to close out the first set with a seven stroke hitting error in the net finishing the action.<\/p>\n<p>McDonell held Lay Lay to just one point off serve in set two while creating points on every service. McDonell opened with the first five points. The closest Lay Lay came after that opening salvo was 7-3. McDonell took back the bird at 4-12 on a four stroke clear and then served out the match with the next nine points. In that closing run of ten McDonell came up with eight winners including two straight smashes.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"181\"><strong>Category<\/strong><\/td>\n<td
