    BALTIMORE, Md. - Three Maryland women's lacrosse players have been named to the United States touring team that will represent the country in the upcoming Prague Cup in the Czech Republic in June. Former Terrapins Quinn Carney and Acacia Walker were named to the roster while sophomore Caitlyn McFadden will serve as an alternate.

    Maryland is one of three schools in the nation to have three student-athletes named to the 24-woman list. Northwestern has three women on the 18-woman roster while North Carolina has two on the roster and one alternate. A total of seven programs had two women represented on the team.

    McFadden is the youngest player to be named to the 24-woman list, representing the class of 2010. As one of the top freshman in the country last season, she scored 18 goals and added 17 assists for one of the most potent offenses in the nation. She finished third on the Terps squad with 29 draw controls, fourth with 21 caused turnovers, and fifth with 27 groundballs. McFadden was named to the WomensLacrosse.com All-Rookie Team and was a member of the All-ACC Academic Team.

    Carney and Walker are two of the best ever to go through the Maryland program. Carney, a 2001 graduate, was a two-time All-American and All-ACC honoree. She won four national championships while in the red and black and was named to the all-time ACC team. Carney ranks third all-time at Maryland with 110 assists, fourth with 272 points, and fifth with 162 goals.

    Walker, a 2005 graduate, was also a two-time All-American and All-ACC selection. She racked up 108 goals, 77 assists, and 185 points in her collegiate career. Her assist number is tied for eighth all-time at Maryland.

    The Prague Cup, which will be held from June 25-28, will feature five other national teams including the Czech Republic, England, Germany, Scotland, and Wales. The United States team was selected from the US Elite and Developmental teams following the US Lacrosse Champions Challenge on January 26-27 in Lake Buena Vista, Fla.
