Brower, Maguire Named to U.S. Pan-American Championship Roster

SPARKS, Md. – Former Duke men's lacrosse standouts Kenny Brower and Aidan Maguire have been named to the U.S. Men's National Team for the inaugural Pan-American Men's Lacrosse Championship. The tournament runs from Aug. 16-23 in Kingston, Jamaica.
The Pan-American championship serves as a qualifier for the 2027 World Lacrosse Men's Championship in Japan.
The U.S. roster features a mix of professional and college players, the majority of whom have experience in the U.S. national team system through training camps or competitions.
This will be Brower and Maguire's first action with the full men's national team in international competition. Brower was a member of the 2022 U21 U.S. squad that took gold at the U21 World Championship, while Maguire earned his first U.S. training camp invite in the fall of 2025 while still a Blue Devil.
Both were two-time first-team All-Americans during their time in Durham with Brower anchoring the close defense and Maguire leading Duke's rope unit. They finished their careers with a combined 141 caused turnovers.
This marks the first time that World Lacrosse has utilized continental qualifiers for the world championship, which will include 16 teams in 2027. Eleven of those spots have already been secured – Japan as the host nation; Czechia, England, Germany, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Latvia from the European championship; and Australia, New Zealand and Philippines from the Asia-Pacific championship. The top five teams at the Pan-American championship will complete the world championship field.
The U.S. will play in Pool B alongside Colombia, Jamaica and Puerto Rico. Pool A will consist of Argentina, Canada, the Haudenosaunee Nationals, Mexico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The U.S. opens pool play against Puerto Rico on Aug. 18, plays Jamaica on Aug. 19 and wraps up pool play against Colombia on Aug. 21. The medal round will be held on Aug. 23.
