<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>In this article, I feature the 5 middie prospects at the Buku Lacrosse SoCal Showcase who posted the quickest 20-yard dash times during my combine portion of the event.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["178325"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a238cdcb6e5e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='178325' first='Nixon' last='Hobbs'] posted the top 20 yard split out of any Middie at the SoCal Showcase last Friday, posting a 2.7. Considering he plays FOGO, that speed comes in handy once he's secured the rock and needs to get away from defenders. It's also the type of burst that can help him jumpstart the offense when he wins the clamp and skirts around his opponent. If you're a college coach, keep an eye out for him the rest of the summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["178329"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a238ecc9fd52"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='178329' first='Justin' last='Snyder'] had the second fastest 20 yard split at 2.75 seconds. He is a prospect who can cover ground at a rapid rate thanks to his explosiveness and long strides. With those type of acceleration skills, he can blow by defenders with ease when he times his dodges right. And that is also evidence that he can win a good amount of 50/50 ground balls. Expect him to make even more noise this summer with Rockslide LC.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["178333"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a238cdcb4628"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='178333' first='Braiden' last='Duck'] placed third with a time of 2.8. He's may not be the tallest prospect out there, but he can really put his foot on the gas pedal to burn opponents when he wants to. His agility is also an attribute that can draw the attention of the defense, which can help teammates get open for catch and shoot opportunities. Look for his stock to rise in the coming months. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["178339"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a23967e1ccf2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">This was my second time getting a glimpse of 2027 Middie [player_tooltip player_id='178339' first='Jackson' last='Perkins']. I saw him previously at the Adrenaline Blackjack Classic back in July, and he impressed with his athleticism. So it only makes sense that he made this list, and it was great to see him post such an impressive time (2.7 seconds, share of 3rd). Beyond his twitchiness, he has solid instincts and can strike once there's even a small window to dodge.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["178338"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a23967e1cd7a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Watch out for [player_tooltip player_id='178338' first='Maksym' last='Yoon'] this summer. As he can turn on the jets as well, posting a 20 yard dash split of 2.8. Which gave him a share of the 3rd best time out of all the middies. He is certainly a prospect who can get downhill in a hurry, and once he creates enough separation he'll let it rip. His quickness is also an asset if he needs to get back on defense, and he's another guy capable of beating out opponents to ground balls. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
