Those who make the team will return for training camp June 5-13 and compete in the 2019 U-16 FIBA Americas Championship on June 16-22 in Puerto Aysen, Chile.

Hall, who took part in Team USA trials in 2017, was the No. 2 scorer for the Lady Warriors last season as a sophomore when she averaged 13.9 points, 57 rebounds, 1.5 steals and 1.4 blocks per game while shooting 48.3 percent from the field.

College coaches are already well aware of Hall’s talent. Ohio State and Michigan State offered her a scholarship before she even played a high school game, and she shared this week she has received offers from Tennessee and West Virginia.

Hall is one of three Ohioans at the USA Basketball U-16 trials, joining Cincinnati Mt. Notre Dame guard KK Bransford and Toledo Notre Dame Academy forward Grace VanSlooten, who are both members of the 2022 class.

Hall and VanSlooten play on the same AAU team, Sports City U.

That roster also includes Nevaeh Dean and Chance Gray of Lakota West, Madeline Westbeld of Fairmont and Cotie McMahon of Centerville.

McMahon recently shared a top 12 of Cincinnati, Dayton, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisville, Miami (Fla.), Miami (Ohio), Northern Kentucky, Ohio State, Tennessee and Xavier.

She subsequently tweeted having received offers from Virginia Tech, Pittsburgh and Purdue.

McMahon was fourth in the GWOC with 9.3 rebounds per game last season as a freshman.

She scored 15.8 points per game while shooting 55 percent from the field for the Lady Elks.

The 5-foot-10 guard has also been on the recruiting radar for quite some time, having received multiple scholarship offers as an eighth-grader.
