GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Six members of the Florida lacrosse program were invited to tryout for the 2024 U.S. Women's U20 National Team, as USA Lacrosse announced Tuesday.
Theresa Bragg, Kaitlyn Davies, Emma LoPinto, Gianna Monaco, Ava Tighe were the current Florida players selected, while incoming freshman Gabbi Koury was also invited to tryout.
The tryouts will be held July 7-9 in preparation for the world championship which will be held in Hong Kong, China from August 15-25, 2024.
Kelly Amonte Hiller, who led Northwestern to the NCAA Division I women's lacrosse championship last month – her eighth national title as a head coach, will be the head coach for the U.S. team. She previously led the U.S. women's U19 team to the world championship in 2019 as head coach.
Her staff includes Angela McMahon (manager), Tim McCormack (assistant coach), Michelle Tumolo (assistant coach) and Ann Elliott Whidden (assistant coach).
Historically, the U.S. U19 women won five of the seven world championships conducted by World Lacrosse from 1995 through 2019. World Lacrosse has since adjusted the age groupings for this championship up to the U20 age level.
The 99 players invited to the tryout come from 14 states, and the District of Columbia, and represent 27 colleges through their current teams or commitments. This will be the most experienced team in U.S. history with the increase in age level, and 37 of the players invited to tryouts have made USA Select teams in the last two years as part of the National Team Development Program.
