Detroit Shock wins third WNBA title


PA SportsTicker

YPSILANTI, Mich. -- Katie Smith scored 18 points as the Detroit Shock completed a sweep of the San Antonio Silver Stars to win their third championship in six seasons with a 76-60 victory in Game Three of the WNBA Finals on Sunday afternoon.

Taj McWilliams-Franklin scored 13 points for the Shock, who finished off the Silver Stars after becoming the first team to win Games One and Two on the road since the league expanded the Finals to its current five-game format in 2005.

With "Disney on Ice" occupying the Palace of Auburn Hills and the Detroit Red Wings playing in nearby Joe Louis Arena, Detroit was forced to play at Eastern Michigan University in Ypsilanti, Michigan, approximately 40 miles outside the Motor City. The celebration no doubt will reach back to Detroit proper.
