Gray to Represent the U.S. at Olympics in Tokyo

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – In front of a nationally televised audience on NBC's TODAY show Monday morning, Duke University alumna Chelsea Gray was one of 12 selections to the 2020 U.S. Olympic Women's Basketball Team, which will take the floor July 26 through Aug. 8 at the Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan.

Gray, a 2014 Duke graduate, will become the first women's basketball player from Duke to represent the United States in the Olympics.

"USA Basketball has never been in a better place," said U.S. Olympic Team head coach Dawn Staley. "I'm honored to be the coach of such an amazing collection of talented women, both those named to the team and those who gave their all the last few years but won't be with us in Tokyo.
