Six players made the team from Canada, followed by three from the United States and one from Australia.
Max Frattaroli, Canada, Attack
Frattaroli led Canada with 16 goals and five assists and was one of 13 players at the championship with 20 or more points, coming in six games.
Jared Maznik, Canada, Attack
Maznik was Canada’s second best attacker throughout its gold-medal winning campaign in Korea with 17 points, and he scored goal that would prove to be the game-winner in the 6-5 gold medal game.
Jack Speidell, United States, Attack
Speidell led the United States with 31 points in six games, the fourth best total in the tournament. He had two goals in the final.
Reece DiCicco, Canada, Midfield
DiCicco was an integral part of Canada’s defensive efforts with a disruptive high motor. DiCicco had two ground balls and a game-high three caused turnovers in the gold medal matchup.
Colin Kurdyla, United States, Midfield
Kurdyla had 14 points and was a key two-way contributor all over the field for the United States as the team captain. He scored twice in the final.
Luke Robinson, Canada, Midfield
Robinson did a little of everything for Canada, and finished with 13 points on 11 goals and two assists through six games, the third best total on the team.
Quintan Kilrain, United States, Defense
Quintan Kilrain was also named to the World Team for his outstanding performance in defense, drawing difficult assignments and limiting Canada’s best attackmen in the final. The United States allowed just 21 goals total in six games.
Luke Michalik, Australia, Defense
Michalik bedrocked a solid Australian defense to the bronze medal and frequently tracked opposing teams’ best attackers. He helped the team shut out the Haudenosaunee in the second half of the bronze medal game.
Parker Sorenson, Canada, Defense
Sorenson anchored the gold medal winning defensive unit, helping shut down the United States twice and especially in the final. Through six games, Canada allowed just 30 goals, including two standout performances against the United States. Canada held the Americans to an average of 5.5 goals in two contests, while they averaged 19.5 goals in their other four games.
Grayson Manning, Canada, Goalkeeper, MVP
Manning’s third best save percentage in the championship was impressive, but his performance in the gold medal game was one for the ages, making 15 saves at a 75% percentage against America’s best talents. In the dying seconds, Manning denied Kurdyla’s bid to tie the game.
