USA women's lacrosse beat Canada 11-8 in the gold medal match to capture the 2022 World Championship. It was the fourth consecutive world championship for the United States. The US has won 30 straight world championship matches after finishing this event 8-0. Former Syracuse players played prominent roles for the red, white and blue. 

Current Syracuse head coach and former Orange star Kayla Treanor was one of the top goal scorers for the USA while Liz Hogan had four saves in Saturday's final and started all eight games of the championships. One of the top defenders in Syracuse women's lacrosse history, Becca Block, contributed to a stingy USA defense. Current Orange assistant and former Boston College star Kenzie Kent also helped the USA victory. 

On the Canadian side, current Syracuse players Maddy Baxter and Bianca Chevarie were key contributors along with former Orange Alie Jimerson. 

Treanor led the USA in points with 34 on 20 goals and 14 assists. That earned her a spot on the All World Team. She also became the all-time leading scorer in USA women's lacrosse history during the event. 

Treanor was a first year head coach for Syracuse women's lacrosse during the 2022 campaign. She helped lead the Orange to a run to the quarterfinals of the NCAA Tournament.

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting.  EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans.  After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years.  Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports.  Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
