SAN ANTONIO, TX – The HBCU All-Stars Game is almost here, and the women's team is

ready to make history. This marks the first year they will compete in the HBCU All-Stars Game.

“When we look at it, we see an opportunity to showcase that HBCUs can perform on this stage,”

said Travis Williams. “Considering the landscape of black college basketball and NBA rosters,

there is a lack of representation for us among the 32 NBA teams and 12 WNBA teams.”
