Alarie and Team Defend Reach Semifinals of USA Basketball 3-on-3 Nationals
May 05, 2019 | Women's Basketball
LAS VEGAS, Nev. – Bella Alarie and Team Defend reached the semifinals of the 2019 Red Bull USA Basketball 3x3 Nationals tonight at the Las Vegas Downtown Events Center.
Alarie's group, featuring Aleah Goodman (Oregon State), Jordan Lewis (Alabama) and Michaela Onyenwere (UCLA), lost in the semifinals to the Oregon team led by Sabrina Ionescu, the 2019 Wooden Award winner, 19-13.
Team Defend went unbeaten in pool play, going 4-0 and outscoring its opponents by 23. In the quarterfinal play-in game, the 3v3 unit took down a Maryland team, 21-12, before defeating Connecticut, 21-16. Maryland reached the NCAA Tournament second round while Connecticut made the Final Four.
This is hardly Alarie's only time with USA Basketball this summer. The two-time Ivy League Player of the Year will be one of 36 players to take part in trials for the 2019 U.S. Pan American Games Women's Basketball Team.
Trials to select the 12-member team will take place May 16-20 at the United States Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The team members will return to Colorado Springs for training camp July 23-Aug. 5, before competing in the women's basketball tournament at the 2019 Pan American Games from Aug. 6-10 in Lima, Peru.
