PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Brown standouts Mia Karine Myklebust and Kate Siedem have been selected to compete in the 2025 USA Field Hockey Senior Nexus Championship. USA Field Hockey made the announcement on Monday (June 23).
The Senior Nexus Championship begins on July 18 and continues through July 20 at the Virginia Beach Regional Training Center and features 145 collegiate and post-collegiate players.
A step along the Olympic Development Pathway program, the Senior NXC serves as a selection opportunity for the 2025-26 U.S. U-21 Women's National Team Selection Camps, Junior USWNT Selection Camps, U.S. Women's National Development Squad and U.S. Women's National Team.
"As a program deeply committed to player development, I'm incredibly proud to see Kate Siedem selected to join MK Myklebust in the U.S. Olympic Development Pathway at the Senior Nexus Tournament this July," said head coach Britt Broady. "This tournament will be an important final tune-up for MK ahead of the Junior Pan-American Games with the U-21 squad, and a tremendous opportunity for Kate as she positions herself for the next U-21 cycle as current players age out."
Siedem started in all 17 games at Brown as a sophomore in 2024 and has played in every game in her collegiate career. It marks the first USA Field Hockey selection for the Madison, New Jersey native.
"I'm very honored and excited to play at the Senior Nexus Championship in July!" said Siedem. "I am looking forward to competing and continuing my development as a player in preparation for our season this fall."
Myklebust was recently named to the United States Under-21 National Team to earn her spot at the Nexus Championship. The Los Gatos, California native was named First Team All-Ivy last fall after leading the Bears with nine goals.
There are 40 colleges represented among the 144 players named to the Championship. Brown is one of six Ivy League programs represented along with Princeton (5), Yale (2), Columbia (1), Harvard (1), and Penn (1). Brown is one of 24 programs with multiple selections.
