Guterding, Smith Named to USA Sixes Training Camp Roster
7/13/2021 2:30:00 PM | Men's Lacrosse
DURHAM – Former Duke men's lacrosse All-Americans Justin Guterding and Brad Smith have been named to the official USA Lacrosse Sixes training camp roster as announced by the organization Monday.
Guterding and Smith are among the 22 players who will take part in the training camp, which will include a public exhibition during the USA Lacrosse Youth National in Frederica, Del., July 13.
Sixes is a new discipline of lacrosse and will be formally known as World Lacrosse Sixes. It is a fast-paced version of the sport played on a smaller field (70 x 36 meters), with fewer players (6 v 6), a condensed game length (four 8-minute quarters) and a 30-second shot clock. Sixes will be the format used for lacrosse at The World Games 2022, a multi-sport Olympic-style event, in Birmingham, Ala., next summer.
The U.S. national teams have conducted scrimmages that helped in the development of the Sixes rules during its Fall Classic in 2018 and 2019, but this will be the first event for the U.S. national teams dedicated solely to the Sixes discipline.
Guterding started all 75 games at attack at Duke, amassing a then NCAA-record 212 career goals. A three-time All-American and 2018 Tewaaraton Award finalist, Guterding finished his Duke career ranked second in program history and fifth in NCAA history with 351 career points. The Garden City, N.Y., native currently plays for Chrome LC in the Premier Lacrosse League.
A versatile player for the Blue Devils, Smith played both midfield and attack in his four seasons at Duke. He finished his career with 175 points from 87 goals and 88 assists and graduated ranked 22nd in program history in points and 12th in career assists. A three-time All-American, Smith was drafted ninth in the inaugural PLL draft by the Whipsnakes.
