Per LaxPower. Will be a junior. Lefty attack from UMass/Yorktown. Lead Umass in scoring last year, and was freshmen of the year in that conference. Could be a big pickup.

Good find Max. Not to toot my own horn but I was predicting at least one or two big offensive transfers for SU this offseason and it appears we have our first.
Was just thinking this morning that I was surprised how slow the transfer market had been this summer. If your a high end attackmen or middie this is the year to get a transfer to Syracuse, the next few recruiting classes are so loaded its unlikely SU will take in many transfers barring a Nicky Galasso type situation.

Good call JeremyCuse. I wonder what this means for our potential first attack line for next season. Does this transfer mean that the starting attack could be Evans, Donahue, and Mariano? In keeping with your prediction to add offensive transfers perhaps SU could land a midfielder. I recall you are an advocate for keeping Barber up top.
It would be nice if the Orange could find a takeaway defender but it seems unlikely that there is one available.
Syracuse has three high end long poles coming in on defense two of which were UA, not to mention a long pole the staff was high on who redshirted this past year. I think defensively they will be in pretty good shape, though I do worry about the consistency at SSDM.
I think getting Mariano all but ends the discussion about moving Barber to attack. I didnt think it was likely to begin with but this certainly puts it to bed. For SU Barbet fits in best at the Midfield, he will be the #1 guy and a Senior leader on a position that will have a ton of youth save for Westin.
I would have to think that Mariano is probably looking at a starting role. I find it hard to believe he would come here/SU would take him if they didnt plan on him playing a big role. Could be a situation where Syracuse rotates in a 4th guy at attack like they did with Desko/Jameson in 09 and 10.
I think this move puts Evans on notice, if he struggles again there are a number of guys ready to step in with Forkin being the most game ready. Mariano also had a lot of success on man up look for him to slide right in on that unit. I know some people were intrigued by Matt Lane and his size but this move buries him even farther on the depth chart at this point, he will struggle to make the field.
Forkin Middie or Attack?
This new kid is a lefty just like Dylan. Isn't that an issue? Spreading the field. Especially if Evans becomes the feeder from behind the cage.
