The above link is to the main World University Games tryouts. Good luck to KML and Bria...nice picture of both of them. Tryouts start today....end Sunday....hopefully someone will post the selections immediately.

This link is to the main 19U page...same dates. Good luck to Breanna, Morgan and MoJeff.
34 kids for 12 spots? Yikes!

I'm guessing that each team will have 15 kids come Sunday....allowing some flexibility for USABasketball when they reconvene regarding possible injuries....12 to be the final number.

Would not be terribly surprised if Seven-One got bumped to the older WUG team...depending on need.

KML and Odyssey Sims look like locks for the WUG team. Frankly I would take Breanna over any of the other candidates for this team.

Go Huskies! Bring back the gold!

Hi Blakeon...
The WUG are loaded with stars. Isn't the head coach Sherri Coale from OU. I guess that means that Vegas is a lock, eh !

Isn't the LPGA Tournament in Mobile, Al this week.

 

[Blakeon18]

Mobile it is. Coale is the coach....Brian DiGeorgis [Marist] is an assistant.

BTW: at the 19U trials A'ja Wilson [the rising senior stud from South Carolina] is there.
She is the youngest player at the site....pretty impressive to just be invited. Wonder if our three kids might strike up a conversation with A'ja once in a while?

I don't know if there still is mutual interest but second youngest is Brianna Turner from Texas.

I will can't figure out what happened with Turner. No one seems to know for sure why we stopped recruiting her - or why the interest waned. Maybe it was on her part... Still good luck to all the kids.

I would hope that the girls 'bump' into Wilson and/or Turner in the cafeteria and strike up a little conversation. Maybe Turner and MoJeff (since both are from Texas). Would love to get both Wilson and Turner. But I won't be greedy. I would settle for one or the other........Whoever verbals first.

By all accounts, Turner is not high on UCONN's radar, and vice versa. We may still be listed in her top 5, or whatever, but the impression and perception is her interest in UCONN has waned as much as UCONN's interest in pursuing her has...

I hope Scaife makes it.

See this for a mention of the Tour. When UConn went to Italy, some players had to turn down invitations to USA events
