FORT WORTH – Olivia Miles is set to rep the red, white and blue and represent TCU on the national stage.
Miles was invited to participate in the 2025 USA Basketball Women’s AmeriCup Team trials, beginning June 17 at the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo.
The 5-10 guard is one of 21 collegians vying for a spot on the final USA Women’s AmericaCup Team roster. Following player selections and a training camp, the United States will travel to Santiago, Chile for the FIBA Women’s AmeriCup, set for June 28-July 6.

She averaged 14.2 points, 6.5 assists and six rebounds per game across three-and-a-half seasons on the court for Notre Dame from 2021-25. Miles earned three sets of All-American accolades, including a second team honor in 2024-25, and was twice named a top-five finalist for the Nancy Lieberman Point Guard of the Year Award.
