UConn Class of 2017 recruiting target Megan Walker was named the MVP as she led her Takeover squad to the 2016 USA Basketball 3x3 U18 national title.

"At the last second, we were kind of slow and I knew we had to score, so I took it upon myself to get us going," said Walker, a 6-foot-1 junior at Monacan High School in Chesterfield, Va. who recently took a visit to UConn and has the Huskies in her list of finalists along with Notre Dame, Virginia and Texas.
