“I couldn’t be more excited to be joining the Epoch family. The innovation and technology they are bringing to the sport is really exciting and I am pumped to be a part of it,” said Guterding. “Being comfortable in equipment and having the ability to perform at my peak is obviously most important, and Epoch certainly has figured out the formula there, and I can’t wait to rep it for the next 3 years and hopefully for the rest of my career!”

A stand-out Duke attackman from the beginning of his collegiate career, Guterding was named as the ACC Rookie of the Year in 2015. During four years as a Blue Devil Guterding racked up 3 All-American awards, was a 3x All-ACC selection, earned ACC Player of the Year and ACC Scholar Athlete of the Year awards in 2018, and became the NCAA’s all-time leading goal scorer with 212 goals.
