It's now time for the U-16 team to strut their stuff:

FIBA Americas today conducted the draw for the 2009 FIBA Americas U16 Championship for Women, and the USA was placed in Group B along with Argentina, Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico. Group A includes Canada, Brazil, Guatemala and host country Mexico.

The 2009 zone qualifier will be played on Aug. 10-14 at Juan de la Barrera Gym in Mexico City, Mexico, with the top three finishing teams qualifying for the 2010 FIBA U17 World Championship, scheduled for July 16-25 in Toulouse and Rodez, France.
