His contributions early on for the Chaps came mostly in the form of assists, but Burke's game has evolved to the point where he is equally dangerous shooting the rock and dishing out a dime. In transition, it is game over when Burke has an opportunity to quarterback a fast break.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Liam Capra","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"142","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Georgetown","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"UNRL","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6791724fda1c1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Capra is a classic Coach's kid—high IQ, disciplined, and a great teammate. He has a nose for the goal and makes highlight-reel goals on a nightly basis. A fearless dodger, Capra will dodge and re-dodge if there is an opportunity nestled in there. He will undoubtedly be the leader of the Eagles' offense this season and will see a lot of tough matchups.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

--> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Graver is the type of lefty every coach would hope to have on their squad.  Coming off a stellar sophomore season in which he was named his team's offensive MVP, Graver can beat you on the step down from the wing or off the dodge, where he is an equal part scorer and feeder.  Graver's deception makes him stand out, never telegraphing his intentions and thus keeping defenses guessing. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

the lacrosse field.  His agility, dodging, and field vision are clearly bolstered by his experience running point guard for the Gators in the winter.  He is one of the most athletic players in the district, and when he gets hot…look out.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

--> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kemp is one of the tallest attackmen in the district and uses his height to his advantage when he dodges from X.  With good vision and instincts, Kemp is able to see the slide coming and find the open man, especially on the crease.  When he isn't initiating from X, Kemp will sneak onto the crease, where is a reliable inside finisher that his teammates look for.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

--> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">When facing the Stony Point Tigers, this is the guy you need to account for first and foremost.  Smith had a fantastic junior season for the Tigers and looks to lead them to new heights in 2025.  Smith's athleticism and finishing ability stand out amongst his peers and make him one of the top dodgers in Central Class C this season.  Larkin does a good job using his size to lean on defenders and muscle through tight areas, and he is never afraid to make contact on the way to the cage.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
