A handful of kids with NM connections are participating in the USA U16 national team tryouts. Amaya Brown and Kavvi Brown from Cibola, Tanisha Begay from Shiprock, and Haley Nguyen who grew up in Albuquerque but now lives in Phoenix are trying out. Also, another attendee is Shaylee Gonzales from Mesquite HS in Gilbert AZ. She is the daughter of Josh Gonzales who starred at Santa Fe High in early 90s and played at Grand Canyon collegiately and in Mexico professionally. Only 156 kids from across the country were invited.
