On a night when its shooting was off, a strong defensive effort propelled the 2017 USA Women's U19 World Cup Team (2-0) past host Italy (0-2) for a 62-36 exhibition victory on Tuesday night in Spilimbergo, Italy. In the day's earlier game of the 2017 Refrion Cup, a round-robin exhibition tournament, Spain (1-1) picked up a 56-50 victory over Latvia (1-1).
The Refrion Cup concludes July 19 with the USA facing Latvia (11:30 a.m. EDT) in the early game, followed by the closing game between Italy and Spain. (1:30 p.m. EDT).
The game's leading scorer, Chennedy Carter (Timberview H.S./Arlington, Texas) scored 11 points on 5-of-8 shooting and was credited with four of the USA's 16 steals. Alecia Sutton (Texas/St. Louis, Mo.) was the game's only other double-digit scorer and finished with 10 points, eight rebounds and four assists. Joyner Holmes (Texas/Cedar Hill, Texas), eight points and a game-best nine rebounds; Ruthy Hebard (Oregon/Fairbanks, Alaska), eight points and three rebounds; and Megan Walker (Monacan H.S./Chesterfield, Va.), seven points and seven caroms; were the team's next three top scorers.

I love Kelly B-W's inside baseball...err...basketball on the GB play that enabled the scoring run for Carter.
Semi vs Japan on WatchESPN now. US leads in 2nd half
65-43 after 3. Carter with 15 off the bench.
US should face Russia tomorrow

Terrible 4th quarter by the US as they play to get enough rest for tomorrow. US hangs on 73-66. Carter with 19 including some key buckets down the stretch.
I think USA v Russia will be at 2pm cdt on Sunday. Streaming on ESPN3.
Russia will be the toughest opponent. Russia crushed Canada and has size. US team looked tired late in the Japan game.

22-17 USA after1.
Russia doing well inside, but 6 turnovers helping the US.

42-36 USA at half. Russia took the lead in the middle of the quarter.
Carter ended the half with a great coast to coast drive for a 3 point play, drawing the third foul on the Russian post. Carter has a really tough defensive assignment on a bigger player.
Dangerfield having a good game for the US.
Too many missed bunnies for Hebard and Joyner Holmes down low.
Carter has 12 points
Dangerfield 13

Russia hangs on to win.
Carter had an amazing game, though. 31 points on 11/18, 4 boards 1 assist. She is s going to be fun for the Ags.
US really outplayed on the paint. Russia used zone in the second half.

Carter one of two US players on the all-tournament team.
When they took the picture of the all stars you could really see how much size Chennedy was giving up when she had to guard Musina.

Carter will bring a lot of excitement with her hustle and scoring ability.
Though the tournament result is disappointing, gotta be excited for what Chennedy will bring! She kept USA in the game, all the way to the end.

If the players are under 19, and the two Russian bigs have been playing professionally for two years ( as the announcers said) I assume that they became full time professionals at the age of 16 or 17. Do I understand this correctly? Someone correct me if I am wrong.

At my age I remember many times where the Russians didn't play fair.....
unless I was in the hospital when those two were born and knew the date myself
I won't bet on their age....
Chinese are known for that too!!
