Delaware Valley 2028s Coaches Should Scout This Spring

Below is review of five Class of 2028 prospects from the Delaware Valley (SEPA, Delaware & South Jersey) who college coaches should come out and watch during the upcoming high school season.    Glenn is a multi-sport athlete who is a highly decorated wrestler, too. On the lacrosse field, Glenn operates as a fleet-footed and shifty midfielder who thrives in transition as well as coming out of the box. His ability to swiftly navigate past multiple defenders and then score or distribute on the run applies constant pressure to the opposing team. When he is looking to score on the fast break, Glenn can unleash sidearm rips from distance or finish in close via overhand dunks. In settled action, Glenn is a high-IQ prospect who will patiently carry the ball until a high-percentage opportunity presents itself for him or a teammate. Glenn's wrestling experience enables him to absorb significant contact on his runs to the net and still maintain possession. Additionally, this rising sophomore has demonstrated excellent field vision and a feathery passing touch.     Hudson is a versatile pole who possesses the athleticism, speed, and skills to play both LSM and close defense. His smooth lateral movements, as well as his well-timed poke checks and lifts, make Hudson a menacing perimeter on-ball presence. Once Hudson has caused a turnover, he will scoop up the GB, push the transition game, or locate an open teammate and deliver a precise clearing pass. Hudson's impressive lacrosse instincts enable him to quickly decide which option is best on a given play. Down low, Hudson can shut down dodges from the wing or X via powerful stick checks or with his physicality. Hudson has an effective habit of getting into ball carriers early in their dodge and throwing them off balance. Hudson is a plus player as a team defender, too.     Liggett is a unique prospect because, in addition to being an extremely skilled face-off specialist, he can also operate as a shifty o-mid during 6v6 action. At the face-off dot, Liggett is a pick-n-pop magician who wins a high percentage of his draws cleanly. After he has secured possession, Liggett will explode away from midfield and trigger a fast break opportunity. Liggett owns polished stick skills, so he is a threat to score or distribute on the run. In 6v6 action, those same stick skills combined with Liggett's quick first step enable him to blow past the initial defender and then get downhill for a shot on the run. Liggett's deep bag of cuts, spins, and stick maneuvers allows him to elude sliding defenders and get to the crease for a finish in close. This sophomore has also demonstrated that he can unleash powerful step-downs into the net from up top or the wing.     Toal is an athletic and speedy defensive prospect who can operate as a close defender as well as an LSM. As a close defender, Liggett does a tremendous job of using his physicality and active stick to stop dodgers from X and the wing in their tracks. When that stop results in the ball hitting the turf, Toal is quick to bounce on the GB and then fire a clearing pass upfield. Or he will roll into open space and smartly push the ball back to his goalie. Additionally, Toal owns the agility and discipline to lock off the opposing team's No. 1 option for an entire game. Toal has displayed an extensive understanding of team defensive concepts, too, because his slides, double teams, and recoveries are always on point. At LSM, Liggett is a dominant player in the middle third of the field. His ability to cause turnovers and snare ground balls between the restraining lines heavily tilts the field in favor of his team.     Walter is a poised and technically sound netminder with unlimited upside. College coaches will love Walter's imposing size, fast hands, and smooth lateral movements. With his ability to track shooters, cut down their angles, and then pop off his line, Walter makes a high percentage of clean saves. Plus, Walter has demonstrated that he can execute quick but controlled drops that deny low shots. This agile sophomore will not hesitate to use any part of his body needed to keep the ball out of the net. When there is a rebound or loose ball, Walter has the athleticism to scramble and swiftly pounce on the rock. Once the ball is in his stick, this lefty delivers smart and precise outlet passes that produce transition opportunities. Walter's vocal leadership on the back line keeps his defensive unit connected.
