UConn recruiting targets Diamond DeShields, a 6-1 sophomore guard from Norcross, Ga., and Taya Reimer, a 6-3 forward from Fishers, Ind., are among 35 players invited to the U.S. Under-16 training camp.

The camp will be held from May 26-30 at the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo.

Online applications are being accepted for other candidates as there will be a maximum of 200 players brought to the training camp.


LOYD TO ANNOUNCE COLLEGE DECISION
UConn recruiting target Jewell Loyd, a 5-foot-9 junior guard at Niles West High in Skokie, Ill. is expected to announce her college decision after school today.

I heard back from Niles West athletic director David Rosengard late last week who confirmed that the ceremony will take place around 3:30 or 3:45 p.m. local time which is 4:30 or 4:45 here in Connecticut.

Notre Dame, UConn and Tennessee are at the top of Loyd's list but it would be a bit of a stunner for the choice to be UConn.
