EUGENE, Ore. – Oregon lacrosse student-athlete Alex Matsuoka will represent Team Canada this weekend at the World Lacrosse Super Sixes. The four-team event – featuring Canada, the Haudenosaunee, Kenya and the United States – will be held in Oshawa, Ontario, from Friday (Oct. 6) through Sunday (Oct. 8).
Matsuoka – who was selected for the squad in September - will be representing her country at the event for the second-consecutive year. Team Canada is looking to defend its title after defeating the Haudenosaunee, 17-4, in the gold-medal game in 2022. This is the third-straight year a Duck has represented Team Canada at the Super Sixes as Cassidy Eckert and former Duck Shonly Williams took part in the inaugural event in 2021.
