August 17, 2024 | Women's Lacrosse
HONG KONG – Two goals and two assists from Kate Levy helped propel the U.S. U20 National Team to another dominant performance at the 2024 World Lacrosse Women's U20 World Championship in Hong Kong on Saturday. Team USA defeated Puerto Rico, 28-4, in Game Two to move to 2-0 in pool play.Â
Levy, one of just two incoming college freshmen representing the stars and stripes, also had one caused turnover. The complete box score can be found here.
The reigning USA Lacrosse National High School Player of the Year now has three goals and three assists for six points across two games so far in the tournament. Ranked No. 1 in the world, the United States sits atop Group A standings.Â
The 2024 Women's U20 World Championship is the first world championship of any kind to be held in Asia since 1997 and the first World Lacrosse event to use the new under-20 age designation for junior-level competition.
The 10-day, 20-team tournament officially started on Aug. 15 after the opening ceremonies on Aug. 14. The championship game will take place Aug. 24.Â
Team USA has won five of seven women's junior world championships, reclaiming the gold medal five years ago in Ontario. Three former Tar Heels in Elizabeth Hillman ('23), Brooklyn Neuman ('23) and Caitlyn Wurzburger ('24) were on the team in 2019.Â
