UConn women's basketball

Stewart, Jefferson, Tuck Named McDonald’s All-Americans

February 9, 2012 at 7:44 pm by Rich Elliott

UConn-bound recruits Breanna Stewart, Moriah Jefferson and Morgan Tuck have been named McDonald’s All-Americans. The announcement comes one day after they were all named WBCA All-Americans.

The McDonald’s All-American Game will be held March 28 at the United Center in Chicago (7:30 p.m.). Stewart will be a member of the East team. Jefferson and Tuck are on the West.

“I would say it’s expected,’’ Auriemma said. “It’s always great that it happens. I’m sure they’re really proud of their accomplishments in high school. And if you asked all of them I’m sure they would tell it’s more important that they keep playing and keep winning. There’s nothing like finishing your high school career with a state championship. So I’m sure that’s probably the next thing on their list. But I think they’re probably pretty proud of themselves. They’ve all worked really, really hard and they certainly deserve it.’’
