Midfielder Shea Baker, goalkeeper Shea Dolce, attacker Emma LoPinto, and midfielder/defense Lydia Colasante were four of 22 total players to be added to the roster which was announced on Tuesday. 

Baker has spent two seasons with the Eagles. During that period, the rising junior tallied 15 goals and four assists for 19 points, attempted 43 shots for a .349 percentage, and 31 shots on goal for a .721 percentage.

LoPinto, a rising senior, spent her first season with the Eagles in 2024 after transferring to Boston College from Florida. She saw time in 23 games and tallied 58 goals and 28 assists for 86 points, attempted 108 shots for a .537 percentage, 85 shots on goal for a .787 percentage, and four-game winning goals. Her assists ranked as the second-most on the team during its national championship run, while goals and points were the third highest. 

Colasante, a rising sophomore, spent her freshman campaign with the Eagles where she tallied one shot attempt, one shot on goal, and 24 ground balls. 

The group will compete in the 2024 World Lacrosse Women’s U20 Championship in Hong Kong, China, from Aug. 15-24 and will be led by Northwestern head coach Kelly Amonte Hiller.

This is an exciting time for USA Lacrosse and we are so grateful for this group to have the opportunity to wear the red, white and blue and compete in this extraordinary tournament.”
