SINGAPORE – Stanford will be represented with six participants when competition at the 2025 World Aquatics World Championships get underway this weekend in Singapore.

Jenna Flynn, Ryann Neushul, Jewel Roemer and Ella Woodhead have qualified for the 14-player Team USA roster, with the Americans seeking their ninth World Championships crown overall while looking to defend their 2024 crown.

Flynn, Neushul and Roemer are among seven returning Olympians from the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. All three players are multi-time ACWPC All-Americans who helped guide Stanford to the 2025 NCAA title, with Neushul leaving The Farm as the program’s only four-time NCAA champion. Woodhead is also a member of two NCAA title teams (2023, 2025).

Team USA opens tournament play against China on Thursday, July 10, at 9:10 p.m. PT.

Former Cardinal standout Dani Jackovich, a two-time ACWPC All-American who competed on The Farm from 2014-17, and incoming UCLA transfer and 2023 ACWPC All-American Sienna Green, are members of the Australian national team.

Jackovich and Green helped guide Australia to a silver medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Jackovich became the 14th medalist in school history overall and first from a country other than the United States. Green, who made her debut with the Aussie Stingers in March 2022, is the youngest water polo player to represent Australia at the national team level and the youngest Australian water polo Olympian.

Australia’s tournament opener is slated for Friday, July 11, at 4:10 a.m. PT.
