Final Roster Named for 2024 U.S. Women's U20 National Team
Head coach Kelly Amonte Hiller has announced the final roster of 22 players that will represent the United States in the 2024 World Lacrosse Women’s U20 Championship in Hong Kong, China from August 15-24. The selections were made following a training camp at USA Lacrosse headquarters from June 19-21.
“I could not be more excited at the selection of our U20 national team that will compete in the world championship in Hong Kong,” said Amonte Hiller. “We have chosen a group of 22 tremendously talented young women that work extremely well together. This is an exciting time for USA Lacrosse and we are so grateful for this group to have the opportunity to wear the red, white and blue and compete in this extraordinary tournament.”
The 22-player roster includes players from high schools in nine states and eight players from the 2024 NCAA championship game – four each from Boston College and Northwestern, including IWLCA All-Americans Shea Dolce (Boston College), Emma LoPinto (Boston College) and Madison Taylor (Northwestern).
The team’s next training camp will be held at Northwestern University from July 18-20. The team will then have one final brief camp in Northern California in August before heading to Asia for the world championship.
Formerly a U19 event, World Lacrosse raised the age group to U20 after the 2019 championship in Peterborough, Ontario. Amonte Hiller was the head coach for the 2019 team and helped lead the U.S. to its fifth gold medal in the event. The U.S won the event in 1999, 2003, 2007, 2011 and 2019. Australia won the inaugural championship in 1995 and Canada won in 2015 with the U.S. finishing as the runner-up at those two events.
