INSIDER USA ACCESS, INSIGHTS, TIPS, PERSONALITIES ROLE CALL Two-time Tewaaraton winner Katie Schwarzmann
doesn’t mind doing grunt work for Team USA BY MATT HAMILTON
Katie Schwarzmann made a name for herself in 2010, during her freshman year at Maryland, when she scored 33 goals and added 11 assists as the ACC Rookie of the Year. She quickly became a go-to threat on a Terps team that went on to win the NCAA championship.
It was the beginning of a historic career for Schwarzmann, whom coach Cathy Reese saw as a successor to another star midfi elder, Caitlyn McFadden. “When she came in her freshman year, she was a stud,” Reese said. “She had great speed and athleticism.” In the summer after her freshman year, Schwarzmann tried out for the U.S. national team, inspired by her sister Lauren, who had played for the developmental team. Katie Schwarzmann went on to become the youngest member of the gold medal-winning 2013 World Cup team. Since that summer, Schwarzmann, who fi nished her
Maryland career as a two-time Tewaaraton winner and third in NCAA history in goals (228) and points (304), has excelled on both teams. But she has done so in very different roles.
