USA U19s ready to play

The USA U19 team trained for the 2009 FIBA U19 World Championship with two practices a day in Colorado Springs. Head coach Carol Owens says they're all very excited to get going. "We've practiced well, we've done all we can do in practice. Now it's time for us to play."

Asked how having players with NCAA Tournament experience will help them, she said, "I think that helps quite a bit. Especially with Nneka being one our captains. I think she’s really comfortable with what we’re trying to do."

Here's the interview with Owens from USA Basketball.
