Group of Sooners Heads to 3x3 Regional Qualifier
September 13, 2019 | Women's Basketball
NORMAN – As the 2019-20 women's basketball season approaches, a group of Sooners will be putting their skills to the test at a USA Basketball 3x3 qualifying tournament on Saturday in San Antonio, Texas.
Mandy Simpson, Gabby Gregory, Madi Williams and Taylor Robertson will team up in one of 22 qualifying tournaments that is designed to help identify the eight athletes who could potentially represent USA Basketball at the 2020 Olympics.
The top four women's teams from the San Antonio Regional Qualifier will advance the USA Basketball 3X3 Regionals in Atlanta, Ga., on Saturday, Sept. 21. Teams which then advance from regionals will head to the 3X3 Nationals in March 2020, which will be used to select the USA men's and women's 3x3 national teams for the Olympic Games.
The sport of 3x3 basketball will be making its Olympic debut next summer. The game is played with a roster of four players (three in play and one substitute) on a half court with one basket using a 12-second shot clock. Made shots inside of the arc count as one point while shots outside the arc are worth two. The game is decided when one team reaches 21 or after eight game minutes.
