USA Women

For the first time in the World Lacrosse Women’s Championship, the U.S. Women’s National Team was truly tested — if only briefly.

The U.S. will meet Canada in Sunday's championship game, aiming for a record fifth consecutive world championship.

The U.S. has outscored its four opponents 83-16, and 54 of those goals have been assisted.

The urgency ticked up Wednesday as the stakes heightened. Pool play is over. It’s officially time to win or go home.

The USA men's and women's sixes national teams will compete against top international competition this October.

The U.S won its 34th consecutive game dating to 2009 to advance to the world championship semifinals.

The United States finished pool play with a plus-51 goal differential. There is still room to grow.

The U.S. will meet Puerto Rico in the quarterfinal round on Wednesday
