Liz Robertshaw has experienced one of the greatest joys this game can offer — winning a gold medal at the World Cup as part of the U.S. national team. She won two while serving as an assistant from 2009 to 2017 to Ricky Fried, and because of that time with US Lacrosse, Robertshaw knows firsthand what it takes to make a national team roster.
