He's a smaller guy at 5'9 (still has a few years of growth left obviously) but love that he played man up and has some O skills. Showed some nice stuff on tape as well. 3 star ranking seems low, I wouldn't be shocked if he moved up a good amount the next few years.

 

[Hawknate144]

he also has possibly the most Lacrosse name I have ever heard, even more so than Hanson Peck

His first name is literally a word used to describe upper class British people lol

He has to be our first ever player from Kansas. I’m not sure I’m aware of any notable D1 players from KS.

He looks like he is ready to join Mullens and AD in big bicep club already. Nice!

Who's AD?

Football player Antoine Deslauriers

From 2024. He's also listed as a three star in the Inside Lacrosse breakdown for 2024. Must have re-classed?

"Gentry Curtis, Rockhurst Jesuit (Mo.)
Andy Kay has coached and seen a lot of great lacrosse at MICDS. On April 19, Kay simply found himself tipping his cap after Gentry Curtis won his final eight faceoffs and Rockhurst Jesuit scored all seven fourth-quarter goals to turn an 8-6 deficit into a 13-8 win over the Rams. All told, Curtis won 18 of 21 faceoffs (per Hawklets coach Timothy Reidy) and corralled 17 ground balls (per Kay). Kay said, "I have to say that his performance was one of the most dominant things I’ve witnessed in my coaching career." Said Reidy, "He is a special kind of FOGO.""

Tough stretch for Johnny and Drew but they have also been going up against some of the top Fogos in the country week in and week out. Feels like he's really struggled but Mullen's been 50% or better in 9 of 13 games. We probably should have given Angelo a few more looks in a few games and having a third reliable guy certainly isn't a bad thing either. I think the fanbase or at least parts of it (not saying you) expect him to be at 65% or better each week, that's simply not realistic. Certainly he has to be better then he was this past week vs UVA but part of that is also the lack of wing play, we are losing any scrums 90% of the time.

I think Mullen has been fine when he's not getting whistled for violations. He has been let down majorly with wing play. He's rarely beaten on the clamp and when he is he frequently muscles the ball out immediately afterward.

Although Bough Hahn is up there. (Also Star Wars)

I’m very surprised by the lack of improvement on the wings over the course of the season, but then again maybe they are saving the best wing play for the tournament (let us hope)
