Experience and youth come together in the 14-player U.S. Women’s National Team roster as they prepare to defend their FIVB World Championship title. This talented team has a rich history of success, including two tournament gold medals in 2018. However, the past achievements mean little as they head to Japan for the World Championships starting on September 29.
A Strong and Experienced Roster
The preliminary roster consists of eight players with Olympic Games experience, bringing valuable knowledge and skill to the team. Stars like Adams, Akinradewo, Hill, Larson, Lowe, Lloyd, Murphy, and Robinson have all represented the United States on the Olympic stage. Additionally, Dixon was part of the 2014 World Championship gold-medal team, along with Adams, Akinradewo, Hill, Larson, Murphy, and Robinson. In fact, Hill was selected as the most valuable player of the 2014 World Championship, an impressive feat for a player in only her second year of international competition.
