Team USA did not win Worlds before it started. Six Pan American titles in November built the roster, but at the 2026 UCI Cyclocross World Championships that foundation produced 11th place in the opening team relay.
Andrew Strohmeyer, Lizzy Gunsalus, Henry Coote, Mia Aseltine, Noah Scholnick, and Aida Linton swept the Pan American Cyclocross Championships in Washington, D.C. — a result strong enough to shape selection for Hulst. Domestic depth is not the same currency as a start line in the Netherlands. The relay result is the actual scoreboard, and it reads 11th.
