The Canadian women’s 3×3 basketball team has bounced back in Paris.

After falling 19-15 to Germany earlier on Thursday, Canada regrouped to top France 13-9 in the fourth game of group play.

The score remained tight for most of the game, but Canada’s fight and pressure reigned supreme.

Katherine Plouffe and Paige Crozon each scored four points in the win, while Michelle Plouffe netted three and Kacie Bosch recorded two.

Canada shot 56 per cent from the one-point range, to France’s 39 per cent.

Canada’s record now sits at 3-1.

All eight teams play each other in round-robin play. The top two teams earn semifinal berths, while teams ranked third through sixth advance to play-in games.

Canada’s next game is on Friday at noon ET / 9 a.m. PT against the United States.
