SPARKS, Md. – The road to the LA28 Olympics continues with the 2026 Atlas Cup at USA Lacrosse headquarters from Oct. 23-25 and USA Lacrosse has announced the U.S. women’s team roster for the event. The Atlas Cup, featuring the men’s and women’s national teams from Canada, the Haudenosaunee Nationals, Ireland and the United States, will feature the sixes discipline of the sport that will be utilized at the LA28 Olympics.
Full-event and single day tickets for the three-day event are on sale, which includes additional savings for USA Lacrosse members. The U.S. women open play against the Haudenosaunee Nationals on Friday, Oct. 23 (7 pm), meet Ireland on Saturday, Oct. 24 (8:30 pm) and then close against archrival Canada on Sunday, Oct. 25 (1:30 pm). Ticket options include Lawn Seating, Stadium Seating, or a premium VIP Hospitality experience.
The U.S. women went a perfect 3-0 to capture the inaugural Atlas Cup last fall and will feature a star-studded lineup for this year’s edition, including two-time World Lacrosse Championship MVP Ally Kennedy (Box, 2024 – Field, 2026) and recent Tewaaraton winners Izzy Scane (2023, 2024) and Madison Taylor (2026).
All three of those players helped the U.S. Women’s National Team win the World Lacrosse championship in field lacrosse earlier this summer in Japan, and they’ll be reunited with their gold medal teammates Anna Brandt, Shea Dolce, Kori Edmondson, Ally Mastroianni, Eliza Osburn and Sydney Scales at the Atlas Cup.
Rounding out the roster are Women’s Lacrosse League champions Sydni Black (Championship Game MVP) and Jennika Cuocco and North Carolina junior Kate Levy, a world champion at the 2024 World Lacrosse U20 Championship and a 2025 NCAA champion at North Carolina.
