Skills and a determination to overcome adversity have landed Lizzie Colson on the U.S. team
Lizzie Colson's first experience with the U.S. team ended in heartbreak, a torn ACL on the final day of a training camp during the summer of 2019. She missed the COVID-shortened 2020 season at the University of Maryland, but was ready for another shot to wear USA. Colson returned to the U.S. team at the tryouts in the summer of 2021 and earned her spot on the team.
One of the most potent offensive forces of her generation, Kayla Treanor set a new standard for U.S. players in 2017.
Treanor scored a U.S. record 43 points in the 2017 World Cup on 24 goals and 19 assists, including a staggering 12-point performance (5g, 7a) against England — a U.S. single-game record.
