DURHAM - 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. Rising Duke women's lacrosse sophomore Caitlin Barrett was selected as a member of the team.
"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. Barrett is one of eight ACC student-athletes selected.
Barrett saw action in 12 games during her rookie campaign as a midfielder. The Manhasset, N.Y., native tallied a career-high four goals against Winthrop (2/18/24) and finished the season with seven goals and two assists for nine points. She also grabbed nine draw controls, three caused turnovers and two ground balls. She was one of 11 ACC student-athletes invited to the camp.
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.
The U.S. Women's National Team trains and plays using game-changing, high-performance equipment from Cascade Maverik, Gait Lacrosse and STX and best-in-class products from Enovis (sports bracing).
In addition to these partners, Gatorade, MedStar Health and Stryker are official sponsors of the U.S. National Team Program. Team training is also aided by products from Athletic Republic.
