Tonight's U21 final was a hard-fought, defensive battle with a very good Brasil squad. After 3 quarters of back and forth basketball, the USA came away with a 75-66 victory, and were crowned Champions of North and South America! Our impressive wing combination of Woodrow Wade and Cliff Duncan led the way, with 15 and 16 points, respectively, and our big men were able to turn up the heat down the stretch to seal the victory on our home soil.
The win seals an
undefeated Americas campaign for the USA U21's, and next season's boys will look to pick up right where this crew left off for what will undoubtedly be a difficult and exciting Worlds Tournament.
