Aces edge Liberty to secure second straight WNBA championship

NEW YORK -- The Las Vegas Aces became the WNBA's first repeat champions in over 20 years on Wednesday behind a 70-69 Game 4 victory over the New York Liberty to win the Finals series 3-1.

Las Vegas managed to close out its title run despite being without starting point guard Chelsea Gray and starting center Kiah Stokes, who both suffered foot injuries in Game 3.

The team saw the injuries as simply another obstacle to overcome in what was a roller coaster season on and off the court.
