Connor Nelson recognizes the advantages a club could hold for him. The rising sophomore at New Hartford (N.Y.) High wants to one day wear Syracuse's No. 1 jersey like his father, 2013 National Hall of Fame inductee Tim Nelson.
"I'm more excited than anything to see what the future holds for me," he said. "I'm kind of worried too. You don't know if colleges are going to want you."
New Hartford is known more for its baseball program. College lacrosse coaches aren't exactly lining up to see a team that has won one Section 3 title in school history. That's why he's looking for the right club experience.

Connor Nelson, Attack, New Hartford (N.Y.), 2017
Nelson had an excellent showing at the Orange Crush event as a high IQ quarterback attackman with vision and the ability to put passes on the money. Maybe inheriting some good genes from his relatives, Nelson easily emerged as one of the best then-uncommitted players in the 2017 group. He lit it up for several points in each chunk of games I caught. He registered two goals and an assist in one viewing, two assists in another, and then a slick behind-the-back goal to show he’s able to make the high-level play around the crease. He’s fundamentally sound in how he carries, protecting the stick well and operating with it up around his ear when looking to make feeds. He’s not a huge kid, but look at his stat line from last season: 43 goals and 46 assists as a sophomore. He’s got a lot of upside and should be a player to watch out of the Utica area for the next two seasons.

Trust me, I felt kind of dirty creating this thread lolYeah, but W'boro... New Hartford.
Go Whitesboro.
The MOVA is hardly a Lax hotbed but will be decently represented in Orange in the coming years with Farrell & then Nelson & Lucas Quinn (son of a W'boro native) coming in '17.
I've also heard very good things about a 2018 goalie, Devin Lee, from Clinton

How about a feeder who helps you establish a five goal lead with 2 minutes to go? Don't need to kill the clock then.

Biggest concern I have heard from those very familiar with Nelson and the CNY lax scene is that he has dominated against mediocore to bad teams but has been held in check/struggled in the big games. I think he is definitely headed toward a redshirt year.
