This 2029 prospect excels as a two-way LSM. His ability to swiftly turn defensive stops into solid scoring chances is impressive. Kennedy is also a master at coming out of the box, sprinting to the ball, and shutting down the opposing team's fast break. In 6v6 action, Kennedy can operate as a speedy LSM and press out on ball carriers all the way to midfield. Or Kennedy can drop down low and work as a rock-solid close defender. At close, Kennedy's lateral quickness and active stick enable him to shut down 1v1 isolation actions. Kennedy is also a high IQ defender whose slides, double teams, and recoveries are always on point. Lastly, Kennedy has repeatedly proven that he is an effective long pole option on face-offs. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["201888"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":201902,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-6a7a00cb8a6cd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">During the 2026 high school season, Micelli posted 45 goals to go along with 11 assists and was named a Butler County All-Star. This summer, the former Freeport Area High School star is transferring to Kiski School and reclassing into the 2029 graduating class. Micelli is an extremely versatile prospect who operates as a two-way midfielder and dabbles as a FOGO too. On defense, Micelli's speed and active stick enable him to vacuum up ground balls and then turn them into transition scoring opportunities. Once Micelli gets below the restraining line, he is a threat to score or distribute. In settled action, Micelli does a fantastic job of cutting down the middle of the field, receiving a pass and then finishing. Micelli also can snipe from the wing or up top. The power and accuracy on his sidearm rips are remarkable.    </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["201104"],"_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-6a7a00cb8a727"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The 2026 NEPA Rookie of the Year recently announced on social media that he is departing Wyoming Seminary and transferring to national powerhouse Lawrenceville School in New Jersey. During his epic freshman campaign, Rushmer poured in 71 goals and dished out 31 assists. One item that pops immediately about Rushmer is his ability to fire missiles into the net from the wing or up top. Rushmer's swift release, velocity and pinpoint accuracy make his long-distance rips impossible to stop. This rising sophomore has also demonstrated that he can dodge from up top or the wing, cook his defender and then shoot or distribute on the run. When Rushmer decides to charge all the way to the crease area for a scoring chance, his deep bag of creative finishing moves keeps opposing goalies guessing. Plus, Rushmer has flashed as a midfielder with the speed and change-of-direction moves needed to thrive in transition.   </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["201877"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":201899,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","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-6a7a00cb8a785"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Schindler is an athletic, quick-twitch lefty with filthy stick skills and significant box experience. Combine that list of assets with Schindler's imposing size, and you get an offensive prospect that should have an immediate impact for the Hill School. With his Canadian / box lacrosse roots, Schindler is extremely comfortable operating in tight spaces. His ability to find open space around the crease and then convert on catch and dunk scoring chances is impressive. Schindler's field vision and creative passing skills enable him to deliver dimes in traffic too. His quick release and ability to shoot with two hands make Schindler a legitimate sniper from GLE. Schindler is also a member of Lacrosse Canada's U15 National Development Team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["176313"],"_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-6a7a1eb7bd8a6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">This former Academy of New Church standout is taking his talents to western Pennsylvania and will play for Kiski School during the 2026-27 academic year. At ANC, Seigler faced a hailstorm of shots each game. He impressed with his quick reflexes, fast hands, and poise under that intense action. This past season, Seigler's ability to deny close range shots was especially impressive. Seigler tracks shooters through traffic extremely well and pops off his line. That combination helps Seigler make a host of clean saves on shots from the perimeter. Seigler's athleticism and nonstop motor enable him to pounce on loose balls as well as win chases. Plus, Seigler delivers precise outlet passes that trigger transition chances. As a bonus to his goalie skills, Seigler owns a great deal of experience playing against elite high school programs.  </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
