PISCATAWAY, N.J. - Rutgers field hockey had two student-athletes selected for the U-21 Selection
Camp and Gianna Glatz and Clayre Smith were chosen by USA Field Hockey. The two were selected
following their participation in this year's Young Women's National Championship.

Camp and Young Women's National Championship last season, and toured Germany in April with the
U-21 team. In her sophomore season 'On the Banks', she was named First Team All-Big Ten and First
Team All-Region after posting a 13-6 record as RU's starting goalkeeper. The Medford, N.J. native held
a 1.27 goals-against-average, a .785 save percentage and started in nine shutouts. Glatz led the Big
Ten and was fifth in the nation in save percentage. A product of Shawnee HS, Glatz is majoring in
Psychology.
Smyth recently concluded her first season at Rutgers, sitting out the season as a transfer from Penn
State, where she played in eight games in 2017. The Honesdale, Pa. native, who is set to make her
Scarlet Knights' debut this fall, is majoring in public policy.
The 2019 U-21 and Women's Development Team Selection Camp will take this December at Spooky
Nook Sports in Lancaster, Pa. Rutgers had six players at the Young Women's National
Championship, with Alanna Gollotto, Gianna Mancini, Abby Regn and Kassidy Shetler joining Glatz
