Arizona women’s basketball has its best class in program history joining the team this year. From top-10 rankings to all-star selections, members of the class have been honored by every high school basketball organization in the U.S. and Canada. Add one more honor to that list.

Incoming freshman guard Kailyn Gilbert has been selected for the USA Basketball U18 squad that will play in the 2022 FIBA U18 Women’s Americas Championship in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The tournament will be held from June 13-19 at the Obras Sanitarias Stadium.
