New Balance All-America Games: 2027 Attackmen

The New Balance All-America Games served as one of the final major showcases of the summer—and for 2027 attackmen, it was a crucial last chance to boost their stock ahead of September 1st. With college coaches preparing their recruiting boards, several offensive standouts used the spotlight to prove they're ready for the next level. Whether it was dynamic dodging, high IQ playmaking, or pure scoring ability, these attackmen made a strong final impression before the first calls go out.    Grace is coming off a hot spring with Dematha with 58 points (31 goals, 27 assists) and has continued his success into the summer. Standing at 6'3, he has great size and is a great athlete. At New Balance, he turned heads with ability to make plays coming up the hashes and around the island. He demands so much attention in those areas where he can kill you with his signature jump shot or stepdown and if you slide to him he will find the open shooter or cutter. His blend of size, skill, and vision makes him a complete offensive threat in the 2027 class—and someone college coaches will be keeping tabs on.     Trette represented the West at the New Balance All-America Games, where he tallied a couple of goals and an assist. In the spring, the 6'2, 205-pound attackman posted 69 points (52 goals, 17 assists) for De La Salle. With his frame, he's a tough assignment—he absorbs contact well and powers through slides. He can unleash heavy step-downs with pinpoint placement, and off-ball, he's deceptively elusive near the crease, slipping into pockets of space defenders don't account for. Trette's physical tools and finishing ability make him a high-ceiling prospect college coaches will want to see more of.     Devin Dzwolak had a strong showing for Team New Jersey at the New Balance All-America event, scoring multiple goals in the games I watched. The lefty has a solid frame, good athleticism, and a knack for making plays. His shooting ability and deceptive release jump off the page—he hides the ball well and can let it fly in stride. You can't leave him on an island, because he'll find a way to get his hands free. Even with physical coverage, Dzwolak proves he can still get his shot off and finish through contact.     Calabria filled up the stat sheet at the New Balance All-America event while repping Team Long Island. He posted a goal and two assists vs. New Jersey and added another goal and assist against Philly. At Sachem North this spring, he racked up 86 points (35 goals, 51 assists), earning All-County and All-Division honors. Calabria does much of his damage operating from X, where he's dangerous going either direction and uses his signature question mark move to great effect. His vision is elite, and he's crafty enough with his release to thread skip passes through tight windows. He's the type of quarterback-style attackman who will be a real asset to a college offense.     Tommy Porter made his presence known for Team Upstate at the New Balance All-America Games, tallying two goals against the Southwest squad and adding another against Baltimore. He's another one of those skilled, undersized Sweetlax attackmen who consistently finds ways to produce. This spring at Fayetteville-Manlius, he led the team in scoring with 54 points on 29 goals and 25 assists. Porter plays with great vision, particularly on skip passes, and uses hitches well to keep defenders off balance. He's also a threat to score on the run and plays with a level of craftiness that's hard to teach.
