2026 Recruiting

What we feeling for this week? Anyone hear anything maybe there’s another verbal maybe.
I’d like to get nervousness out of my pants this week ahead of time.
 
Was reading about Hansen Peck, who is from the Capital Region. Yes he plays HS lax in Jersey for Lawrenceville but is from Albany area. Hopefully that helps us in our pitch
 
A couple of Canadian midfielders who I had my eye on have committed to Ivy League schools -

No. 24 Adam Ponting (Lawrenceville) to Princeton
No. 58 Michael McColgan (Culver) to Harvard

Some top 100 midfielders also committed to Michigan -

No. 44 Shep Boyd (Chatham)
No 60 Brody Waxer (Syosset)

cuse has been the favorite for peck since he was in elementary school. he visited this weekend

their odds went up when notre dame signed hunter metz. that prob takes them out of the peck sweepstakes...

mccolgan is not canadian he's from ohio
 
This gives Notre Dame three IL top 10 recruits (he's 12 for Ty and 19 for NLF). I wonder if they have a chance for Gillis as well given the Chaminade to Notre Dame pipeline.

Ya he was here this weekend along with several others including Bramoff and Rayfield. Should be an interesting next week or so expecting a number of bigger guys to commit (in general not necessarily to SU).

Who’s our next commit your best guess?

What a haul so far.
Corrigan has been there awhile, is this just the Kavanagh bros effect? I wonder what else ND switched up to attract all this talent the last few years.

Winning it all instead of choking is about all that has changed, but keep in mind their recruiting classes have pretty much always been this stacked on paper.
 
Number 11 in the way too early rankings. Lots of time to make up ground obviously!

Peck has been mentioned a few times recently. If you use the search feature there are several threads that discussed him and will give you some good information.
 
Yes, think some lax fans are about to be very happy.
Would love for it to be Peck but, I must say, bringing in Bramoff along with James would be absurd. I think they ultimately end up as the best LSM & Close Defender, respectively, in the class. Wait until James gets up over 200 lbs. in the coming years while maintaining his elite athleticism. Bramoff gives me Joel White vibes with his elite stick & motor.

Both James and Bramoff are excellent defenders and could essentially name their destinations. I know both are making or had planned to make multiple visits. SU would surely take both in a heartbeat but that's a tall order. Lot of competition out there for both and UVA is very high on Bramoff (or so I have heard).

I honestly would’ve assumed Bramoff was bound for Duke or UNC, as both have owned St. Anthony’s in recent years, until that photo of him on a visit in The Dome Saturday. Maybe he wants to stay close to home &/or was intrigued watching Saam Olexo & Billy Dwan score highlight reel goals on a weekly basis.

Great to get him here for a visit but ya Duke and UNC and others are heavily involved same for James, no limit of suitors. Duke has had a ton of success recruiting that area as you noted, their always a problem on the Island along with UVA and UNC and even Hop.
 
James will be on campus this weekend. I've heard conflicting info on where he was visiting this past weekend. One person I spoke to said he was at PSU and another said he was at UNC. He is also supposed to visit OSU. Hopefully we close the deal with him this weekend.

OSU plays the race card well. Hopefully his family doesn't fall for that spiel.

James I believe was at UNC, definitely wasn't here last week (I asked twice). Syracuse I believe did try to get him here last weekend but wasn't able. I believe there is another highly sought after guy joining him this weekend as well.
