Antic named MVP at Euro U20s

Her team won just one game and finished ninth in a 10-team tournament. But that didn't stop Macedonia's Jelena Antic (Liberty) from garnering MVP honors in last week's European U20 Division B Championships. Antic led all players in scoring (25.0 ppg) and rebounding (12.3 rpg) and led Macedonia in, well, everything.

Antic was also named the tournament's best forward by Eurobasket.com while Great Britain's Becca Allison (Old Dominion) was tabbed the best guard. Antic and Allison were both first-team all-tournament picks; Great Britain's Mairi Buchan - the leading scorer and rebounder on the championship team - was somehow relegated to a second-team choice.
