AEH & Lexi Gordon invited, along with 33 others.

USA Basketball invites 35 players to U17 world championship team trials

Besides UConn's two, only two other players are committed to my knoweldge: Mickalya Boykin to Duke and Nyah Green to Louisville.

Wow what talent...................that's going to be a tough team to make

I hope Boykin both makes the team and remains committed

I don't expect anyone from class of 2019 to make the team but it will be great experience for next time. 11 players return from Under 16 team which did not win gold metal. Look for them to make changes in Bigs which bodes well for Collier in and Prince out. Rellah Boothe will also likely make the team if her head is right considering all the controversy of not selecting her last year. Lexi Gordon has major competition to make this team from AEH and DeCosta. Christyn Williams has the most competiiton from Both greens and Caldwell. This will be interesting.

Right you are:

The 2016 USA Basketball Women’s U17 World Championship Team will be led by Dori Oldaker, head coach at Mt. Lebanon High School in Pennsylvania, with USA assistant coaches Dianne Lewis of Thomas Edison High School in Virginia and Samantha Quigley, who is the head mentor at the University of St. Francis (NAIA).

Dawn Staley USA Olympic Team Asst Coach
“I’m really excited to continue my career with USA Basketball,” said Staley, who pulled double duty in 2014, first as a head coach for the USA U18 National Team that captured gold at the FIBA Americas U18 Championship, and a month later as an assistant coach to the gold-medal winning USA World Championship Team. “I feel that it’s basketball utopia because you come together for one common goal. Also, I look forward to working with Geno, Doug and Cheryl once again because I thought we had a pretty good chemistry as a staff. Hopefully I can lend my hand and help us win another gold medal
