More than 40 of the nation's top men's and women's lacrosse players will take part in the training camp, which will include a public exhibition during the USA Lacrosse Youth Nationals in Frederica, Del., on July 13. Jenner is one of 12 current and former ACC standouts chosen to the 24-player roster.
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. Sixes will be the format used for lacrosse at The World Games 2022, a multi-sport Olympic-style event, in Birmingham, Ala., next summer.
Additional training sessions will be held during the Lake Placid Summit Classic in August and during an event at USA Lacrosse headquarters in October.
Jenner continued her dominance at the draw circle in 2021 and concluded her junior year with 187 draw controls, which tops the Duke all-time individual season chart. The Annapolis, Md., native led the ACC with 9.84 draw controls/game and ranked third in the nation. Jenner tallied a season-high 15 three times this season, just one off her career high. Over the course of her career, she has amassed 371 total draws as the nation's NCAA active career leader in draw controls per game (8.24).
In addition to her draw dominance, Jenner worked hard to contribute to the team beyond the circle. This season, she gathered 25 goals and an assist for 26 points, which includes a career-high four goals in Duke's wins over William & Mary and Liberty. The 6-2 junior also grabbed 12 ground balls and caused two turnovers as she boasted a .543 shooting percentage this spring.
