DURHAM, N.C.—Former Duke men's lacrosse All-Americans Justin Guterding and Brad Smith have been named to the USA Lacrosse Sixes roster for an evaluation camp of the new Worlds Lacrosse Sixes discipline during the Lake Placid Summit Classic Aug. 2-4.
Guterding and Smith both participated in the first camp earlier in July at USA Lacrosse headquarters in Sparks, Md., and played an exhibition game at the USA Lacrosse Youth Nationals in Frederica, Del. A third event is planned for October at USA Lacrosse headquarters.
Sixes 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.
