A New Chapter for Brown’s Field Hockey Star

Adams’s selection follows her elevation to the U.S. Senior National Team earlier this year, a promotion that culminated in a silver‑medal performance at the 2025 Pan American Games.

Competing nations include New Zealand, the United States, Japan, South Korea, Chile, Scotland, France and India, each vying for a spot in the subsequent Hockey World Cup.
