August 05, 2019 | Women's Basketball
LIMA, Peru – Bella Alarie and the USA Basketball 2019 Pan American Games Team will get started tomorrow (Aug. 6) against Argentina.
Â
The game will get underway at 10 p.m. EST. On Wednesday, the United States battles the U.S. Virgin Islands (7 p.m. EST) before a contest vs. Columbia on Thursday (2:30 p.m. EST). Each game can be viewed on the ESPN3. The semifinals start on Friday.
Â
Alarie played for Team USA in several 3x3 tournaments after being named to the Pan American unit in May. A few weeks prior, she played in USA Basketball's 3x3 National Championships in Las Vegas.
Â
The two-time Ivy Player of the Year was named a Women's Basketball Coaches' Association (WBCA) Honorable Mention All-American this season. She is just the third Tiger to ever reach that milestone, but the first to do so after her junior campaign. The Bethesda, Md., native broke the team's single-season record for points per game (22.8) while her 210 field goals, 525 points, 65 blocks were the second most, her 408 field goal attempts were fourth highest and 10.6 rebounds were sixth. She became the first player since Ellen DeVoe in 1984-85 to average a double-double for an entire campaign.
