Before she arrives at LSU this fall, star women’s basketball transfer [autotag]Hailey Van Lith[/autotag] earned some hardware in international competition.
The former Louisville guard, who was one of the biggest transfer portal additions in the country, won a gold medal with Team USA on Sunday morning after the United States won 16-12 over France in the championship of the FIBA 3×3 World Cup.
In total, Van Lith, a two-time First Team All-ACC selection, has now won five gold medals while competing with Team USA, and it’s her first with the senior team in her second time competing.
