This marks the most selections for the Louisville program since the 2017 season, when four players were taken. The Cardinals have had at least one player selected in 12 of the last 14 seasons, and head coach John Michael Hayden has seen seven players drafted in his five years with the program.

For Roed, this marks his second All-Region selection, having previously been named a second team honoree in 2022. He has consistently been a key player in Louisville’s offensive attack, and his abilities did not go unnoticed. Roed finished the season with five goals and led the Cardinals with nine assists, tying for the fourth-most in a single season in program history. His standout performance came in the ACC Championship quarterfinal round, where he notched a hat trick and an assist in a thrilling 4-3 win over Notre Dame. This incredible feat marked the first hat trick by a Louisville player since 2017 and set an ACC Championship record with seven points. Roed’s impact on the team cannot be understated.
