Rachel Tecca Selected to WNBA Mock Draft

 Akron forward and All Mid-American Conference candidate Rachel Tecca was projected to be selected 27th overall in the 2013 WNBA Mock Draft recently released by DraftSite.com.

Tecca was anticipated to be taken with the third pick in the third round by the Tulsa Shock. She was just one of two MAC players to be included in the mock draft, along with Miami (Ohio) guard Courtney Osborn who was selected right before Tecca with the 26th overall pick.

The preseason nod from DraftSite.com places Tecca in the same pool as some of the big names in women's basketball, including Baylor's Brittney Griner and Delaware's Elena Delle Donne. In addition to Tecca, the Shock was predicted to take Delle Donne as well as Brittany Chambers out of Kansas State.
