TOWSON, Md. — Four years ago, Jenny Levy nearly lost in her debut as head coach of the U.S. women’s national team.
The U.S. trailed then-defending NCAA champion James Madison 9-8 in the USA Lacrosse Fall Classic on Oct. 6, 2018.
That’s when Taylor Cummings took over, scoring four goals and securing 12 draw controls to lead the Americans to a 14-10 victory. Levy thanked Cummings afterward.
Cummings had that look in her eye again Monday.
TOWSON, Md. — Fast. Furious. Both ways the U.S. women’s national team wants to showcase its might during the World Lacrosse Women’s Championship at Towson University.
Both words also happen to make up the name of a movie the players watched during a two-hour, 34-minute weather delay that pushed the official start time to 10:04 p.m. Eastern Saturday night.
TOWSON, Md. – The 14-year-old girl came to the sideline in tears, clutching her arm to cover the bruise. She sought the shade and anonymity of the pop-up canopy behind the bench. Jazmine Smith yanked her back into the sunlight.
“Look at me,” Smith said. “What’s your ‘I am’ affirmation?”
Sobbing, the girl said softly, “I am powerful.”
“Say it again,” Smith said.
Her voice still shaking, the girl replied, “I am powerful.”
TOWSON, Md. — It was a sight that any Long Island lacrosse fan who watched Kylie Ohlmiller during her historic career at Stony Brook was quite familiar with.
Ohlmiller streaked through the Scotland defense Friday night at Johnny Unitas Stadium, cutting in from the right wing toward the middle. From goal line extended, Sam Apuzzo fed and hit Ohlmiller in stride.
TOWSON, Md. — A rematch of the last World Lacrosse women’s championship game had a championship atmosphere as the United States defeated Canada 16-11 before a boisterous crowd at Unitas Stadium and a national television audience on ESPN2 on the opening night of the 2022 World Lacrosse Women’s Championship.
Gorgeous views of Central Park and the Manhattan skyline greeted attendees to the Mandarin Oriental hotel in New York City for the inaugural USA Lacrosse Legacy Gala on June 9. It set an appropriate stage for a memorable night that raised over $625,000 to help fuel USA Lacrosse initiatives.
STONY BROOK, N.Y. — Five years ago the United States women’s lacrosse team hoisted the World Cup trophy high above their heads as they celebrated in Guildford, England. It was a magical moment, but on Wednesday night, this year’s U.S. players got a taste of what could come.
The U.S. defeated a team of talented players from Athletes Unlimited 15-8 before a spirited crowd of 2,250 spectators at Stony Brook’s Kenneth P. LaValle Stadium.
Wednesday night’s women’s lacrosse exhibition game featuring the U.S. women’s national team and players from Athletes Unlimited will be streamed free of charge on the USA Lacrosse website.
BEL AIR, Md. — Over Memorial Day weekend, girls from all over the United States came to Maryland to compete in the annual USA Lacrosse Women’s National Tournament. The National Tournament has been held by USA Lacrosse and its predecessors since 1933 and will be celebrating its 90th anniversary next year.
This year, over fifty teams came together to represent their regions and play in front of college coaches.
