McCoughtry, who first donned a USA Basketball uniform in winning gold at the 2007 Pan American Games, received her first USA National Team nod in 2009. Recent Louisville standouts Sara Hammond and Bria Smith also took home gold medals from international competitions -- Hammond as a member of the 2014 USA 3x3 World Cup Team and Smith at the 2010 FIBA U17 World Cup. Additionally, Shoni Schimmel captured a gold medal as a member of the 2013 USA World University Games Team, while Cardinals head coach Jeff Walz took on his first USA Basketball coaching assignment as an assistant coach for the 2014 USA U18 National Team that finished 5-0 and in possession of the FIBA Americas U18 Championship gold medal. The team qualified USA Basketball for the 2015 FIBA U19 World Cup, and Walz served as an assistant coach for the USA U19 World Cup Team that also claimed gold. Walz was head coach of the 2017 USA U23 National Team that captured the inaugural U24 Four Nations Tournament championship in Tokyo, returned as a court coach for the 2017 USA Basketball Women’s National Team training camp Sept. 30-Oct. 2 in Santa Barbara, California, and led the USA to gold at the 2018 FIBA Americas U18 Championship. This past summer, Walz led the 2019 USA U19 World Cup Team, which featured Louisville signee Hailey Van Lith, to a gold medal in Bangkok, Thailand. Recent Louisville standout Asia Durr is a member of the 2020 USA National Team pool and owns a 17-1 record in USA Basketball games played. Durr, the 2013 FIBA Americas U16 MVP, captured gold medas at the 2013 FIBA Americas U16 Championship and 2014 FIBA U17 World Cup. She also helped the Walz-led U23 team to the 2017 U24 Four Nations Tournament Title and won the 2015 USA 3x3 U18 Nationals. She also was named to both the 2015 USA 3x3 U18 World Cup and 2015 USA U19 World Cup teams, but was injured and unable to compete.

  • Baylor's Brittney Griner Headlines 2012-13 Preseason 'Wade Watch' List
    Baylor's Brittney Griner headlines 2012-13 preseason 'Wade Watch' list ATLANTA (September 18, 2012) - Baylor center Brittney Griner, the 2012 State Farm® Wade Trophy winner, headlines the 2012-13 preseason "Wade Watch" list of candidates for the prestigious award, the Women's Basketball Coaches Association announced today. Connecticut leads all schools with three players on the 25-member preseason list. Five schools - defending national champion Baylor, Duke, Kansas, Nebraska and Penn State - are represented by two players each. Now in its 36th year, the State Farm Wade Trophy is named in honor of the late, legendary three-time national champion Delta State University coach, Lily Margaret Wade. Regarded as "The Heisman of Women's Basketball," the award is presented annually to the NCAA® Division I Player of the Year by the National Association of Girls and Women in Sport (NAGWS) and the WBCA. The preseason list is composed of top NCAA Division I women's basketball players who best embody Wade's spirit from 18 institutions and eight conferences. A committee of coaches, administrators and media from across the United States compiled the list using the following criteria: game and season statistics, leadership, character, effect on their team and overall playing ability. Notre Dame's Skylar Diggins, Delaware's Elena Della Donne and Georgetown's Sugar Rodgers join Griner on the preseason list for the third straight year. Alex Bentley of Penn State, Carolyn Davis of Kansas, Stefanie Dolson and Bria Hartley of Connecticut, Chiney Ogwumike of Stanford and Odyssey Sims of Baylor are making their second appearance on the list.

    FOR MORE INFORMATION: Steven Hunter, McDonald’s USA [email protected] 317-910-2223 Kate Mulcahey, Golin [email protected] 312-729-4332 McDONALD’S SELECTS ATLANTA TO HOST THE 2018 ALL AMERICAN GAMES The 41st Annual Games will be the third hosted by Atlanta and first since 1992 OAK BROOK, Ill. (Sept. 20, 2017) – McDonald’s has named Atlanta as the host city for the 2018 McDonald’s All American Games. The 2018 Games will be played on March 28, 2018 at Philips Arena, home of the Atlanta Hawks. The city previously hosted the 1983 and 1992 Boys Games. For years, Georgia has been a powerhouse for high school basketball talent. Since 1977, 41 McDonald’s All American Boys and 18 McDonald’s All American Girls players have hailed from the state. This includes 2017 Morgan Wootten Player of the Year winner, Wendell Carter, Jr. and other Games alumni including: Jaylen Brown (2015), Maya Moore (2007), Dwight Howard (2004), Shareef Abdur-Rahim (1995), and Pervis Ellison (1985). “On behalf of the Atlanta Hawks, Philips Arena and the great city of Atlanta, we’re proud to host the 2018 McDonald’s All American Games and are excited they are returning to a region of the country with such a storied legacy of basketball,” said Dominique Wilkins, Vice President of Basketball for the Atlanta Hawks and a 1979 McDonald’s All American. “Having spent much of my life playing and living here, I know the city and fans will enjoy hosting this event and seeing the next great crop of basketball talent.” The move follows a successful run of the All American Games in Chicago.
