After 2014 disappointment, UConn commit Dangerfield eager to make the cut

There was a sense of disappointment when Crystal Dangerfield returned home from the USA Basketball junior national team trials without earning a spot on either the U-17 or U-18 team.

The writing was on the wall when she was moved over from the U-17 group to the U-18s late during the trials and it seemed clear that she wasn't going to make either squad but still there was a sense of unfinished business when the UConn commit returned to Colorado Springs for the U-19 trials.

"Sometimes things don't always work out like you want them to but you still have to come back harder the next time," Dangerfield said.
