ATLANTA – Three of the four 2018 Tennessee women’s basketball signees will take part in the McDonald’s All American Game on Wednesday evening at Philips Arena.

The 17th annual McDonald’s All American Girls Game will tip off at 5 p.m. ET and will air live on ESPN2. The men’s game follows on ESPN.

Tickets for the 2018 McDonald’s All American Boys and Girls Games are on sale via Ticketmaster or at the Philips Arena box office. Ticket prices start as low as $10.

Amira “Mimi” Collins, a 6-3 forward from Waldorf, Md. (Paul VI Catholic H.S. [Fairfax, Va.]); Zarielle “Zay” Green, a 6-0 guard from Duncanville, Texas (Duncanville H.S.); and Jazmine Massengill, a 6-0 point guard from Chattanooga (Hamilton Heights Christian Academy); will be in action. Collins and Massengill will play for the East, while Green is a member of the West roster.  Rae Burrell, a 6-1 wing from Henderson, Nev. (Liberty H.S.), was a nominee from her home state but not among the final honorees.

Lady Vol head coach Holly Warlick and her staff followed up last season’s four-player class of McDonald’s All-Americans with a group of three this time around. That two-year total of seven is the second-most ever assembled over a two-year span by the UT program behind the 2007 (3) and 2008 (5) collection of eight. The most recent McDonald’s All-Americans bring the all-time total of Lady Vol honorees to 34, including 13 players who signed during Warlick’s six seasons as head coach.

“On behalf of the Atlanta Hawks, Philips Arena and the great city of Atlanta, we’re proud to host the 2018 McDonald’s All American Games and are excited they are returning to a region of the country with such a storied legacy of basketball,” said Dominique Wilkins, Vice President of Basketball for the Atlanta Hawks and a 1979 McDonald’s All American. “Having spent much of my life playing and living here, I know the city and fans will enjoy hosting this event and seeing the next great crop of basketball talent.”
