COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -- Victoria Vivians playfully rolled her eyes when she got to her room the first day of USA Basketball training camp. The Mississippi State star's roommate for the week was South Carolina's A'ja Wilson.
"Oh god," Vivians said laughing on Wednesday. "It is neat that we are teammates here and rivals in the winter."
The last time these two were on the same court before the Under-23 camp was when Wilson's Gamecocks beat the Bulldogs in the national championship game this past April. That came two nights after Vivians' team pulled off the shocker of the NCAA Tournament with a Final Four win over UConn, ending the Huskies' 111-game winning streak.
