Maryland basketball’s Kevin Huerter invited to Team USA U-19 tryouts

Maryland basketball’s Kevin Huerter has earned an invite to try out for Team USA’s under-19 FIBA World Cup team. The camp runs from June 18-25 for the opportunity to represent the country and play for Kentucky’s coach John Calipari.

The World Cup will run from July 1-9 in Cairo, Egypt, and Huerter won’t be the only Terp on deck. Redshirt freshman forward Joshua Tomaic will represent his native Spain in the tournament, as well.

Huerter played for the gold medal team at last year’s U-18 FIBA World Cup—Mark Turgeon was an assistant coach on that squad—so he could have a shot at two gold medals before he can legally buy a drink.
