The USA concludes its second European training
session with a 6:00 p.m. (noon ET) contest against MiZo-Pécs on
March 24 in Pécs, Hungary. The MiZo-Pécs squad, which advanced
to the 2006 EuroLeague quarterfinals before falling 2-1 in the best of
three series against Lietuvos Telekomas, should be a familiar opponent
for the American team. Featuring WNBA players Dalma Ivanyi (San
Antonio Silver Stars) and Vickie Johnson (San Antonio Silver Stars),
who led MiZo in 2005-06 EuroLeague action with 11.9 ppg. and 11.6 ppg.,
respectively, the United States has played Pécs four times since
1999.
In the first meeting, DeLisha
Milton-Jones (Washington Mystics) poured in 21 points on 10-of-11
shooting from the field as the U.S. earned a 79-74 victory on Feb. 6,
1999, in Hungary.

in its first Euro tour. |

On Jan. 31, 2000, the U.S.
bested Pécs 66-60 on its home court with the help of 14 points
from Katie Smith (Detroit
Shock).
Later that year, Lisa
Leslie (Los Angeles Sparks) chalked up a double-double of 17 points
and 11 rebounds as the USA downed Pécs 66-37 in Philadelphia during
the NCAA Women's Final Four on March 30.
Returning to Pécs
on March 27, 2004, the United States again came out on top, 67-59, behind
27 points and 12 rebounds from Tina
Thompson (Houston Comets).
Donovan is being assisted on the sidelines in Europe by
2006 USA World Championship assistant and WNBA Connecticut Sun head coach
Mike Thibault, the
only coach known to have served as a coach for a USA Basketball men's
and women's team.
