Mosqueda-Lewis leads U.S. into semifinals

UConn commit Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis had 16 points (making 3 of 4 shots from both 2-point and 3-point range) to lead four United States players in double figures in Friday's 86-57 win over Spain in the quarterfinals of the FIBA Under-17 World Championship for Women.

UConn recruiting targets Elizabeth Williams (11 points) and Jewell Loyd (10 points, three assists, three steals) also scored in double figures as did Tennessee commit Cierra Burdick, who finished with 10 points and five rebounds.

The U.S. will face China in Saturday's semifinals in what figures to be the toughest game to date in the tournament for the undefeated U.S. squad.

China advanced to the semifinals with a 68-59 win over Russia.
