UConn, Hartford players get USA Team invitations

   Both have been invited to try out for USA Basketball Under 20 team.

   Montgomery was the Big East Freshman of the Year this past season. Her 123 assists were the most in a single season by a UConn freshman.

   Hood, a sophomore forward, was the Hawks' leading scorer. She averaged nearly 14 points a game.

   They are among the 37 players who will take part in four-day team trials beginning May 18th at the U-S Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs. A team of 12 will eventually be chosen for the national team.
