UConn recruiting target Taya Reimer injured her right ankle in the United States' win over Guam in the 3X3 World Youth Championships on Friday in Italy.

Reimer, who averaged 5 points in the first three games of the tournament, sat out the game against Italy and she will have her ankle examined to see if she can continue to play in the tournament.

Even without Reimer, the U.S. defeated Italy 16-13 to improve to 4-0 in Group 3. The U.S. wraps up pool play on Saturday against Sweden and has already secured a spot in the Round of 16.
