The U.S. men’s team roster features seven players that helped Team USA capture gold at the Federation of International Lacrosse (FIL) Men’s World Championship in Netanya, Israel this past July. Among those players are tournament MVP Michael Ehrhardt and all-world attackman Ryan Brown.

Yale, which won its first NCAA championship last May, returns a pair of All-Americans. Sophomore defenseman Chris Fake earned second team honors and was the Ivy League Rookie of the Year. Senior midfielder Jack Tigh, who had three goals in the NCAA championship game win over Duke, was a third-team selection after scoring 35 goals for the Bulldogs.

An intriguing newcomer to the Yale roster is faceoff specialist TD Ierlan, who transferred to the school after setting NCAA single-season records for faceoff percentage (79.1), faceoff wins (359) and ground balls (254) for Albany last year. One of his matchups against Team USA is former Denver star Trevor Baptiste. The duo staged an epic battle during last year’s NCAA quarterfinal round, evenly splitting 30 faceoffs.

The U.S. women’s team, which won both the FIL World Cup in England and the International World Games Championship in Poland in 2017, will be making its debut under new head coach Jenny Levy.

Levy’s 27-player roster includes 12 players that won gold medals at the FIL World Cup, including four all-world selections — Taylor Cummings, Megan Douty, Kayla Treanor and Michelle Tumolo.

JMU downed Boston College to win its first NCAA championship last season. The Dukes return three All-CAA players in senior attacker Hanna Haven, senior defender Caroline Sdanowich and sophomore goalie Molly Dougherty.

Kristen Gaudian, a Tewaaraton finalist for last year’s JMU national championship team, will be making her debut as a member of the U.S. national team program.
