Scott had aimed to shoot at 85 per cent from her goal attempts in 2019.
“After every game I have a look to see what my percentage is and I like to aim for 85 per cent but a lot of the year my average (goal shooting percentage) is about 80 per cent.
“It is bit lower than what I would have liked, especially in finals it was low – practice more I will get there.”
