Eight local girls lacrosse players, including two each from No. 1 McDonogh and No. 8 Mount Hebron, have been named Under Armour All-Americans and six of them will play in the 10th anuual Under Armour All-America Lacrosse Game July 3 at Towson University's Johnny Unitas Stadium.
McDonogh's Elizabeth George and Olivia Jenner, Mount Hebron's Megan Doherty and Jen Giles, John Carroll's Kara Klages and St. Paul's Julia Braig were named in the first three waves of seniors announced for the game. One more group will be announced in the next few weeks, bringing the total to 44 All-Americans who will be divided into North and South teams.
Roland Park's Francesca Whitehurst and Maryvale's Miranda Ibello were named Under Armour All-Americans, but they are both on the U.S. Under-19 national team that will play for the world championship this summer in Scotland and US Lacrosse rules prohibit their participation in All-America games. All of the seniors on the U-19 team were named All-Americans.
