Millon Fall Invitational: Five More Prospects Who Turned Heads

This past Sunday, the Millon Fall Invitational gathered 25 East Coast clubs in the 2028 and 2029 grad years for a day of lacrosse at the Westtown School in Chester County, Pennsylvania.   I was on campus at Westtown to scout the intense lacrosse action last Sunday. So, today I want to profile five prospects who turned heads with their outstanding play at the Millon Fall Invitational.    Carney is an available 2028 who popped at the Millon Fall Invitational because of his athleticism, speed, and polished skill set. He is a natural left-hander, but this past Sunday, Carney showed he could dodge going to his left or right and then shoot or pass with both hands. Carney was especially effective when he initiated from the wing, swept across the defense, and then ripped while on the move. This high IQ offensive prospect with a quick burst displayed a unique ability to lull a defender to sleep and then explode past or dip underneath him for a sprint to the cage. Additionally, Carney impressed with the way he worked back towards midfield, received outlet passes, and then swiftly turned upfield to create a transition opportunity.     This freshman was playing up in the 2029 division, and to be honest, he was a dominating defensive presence. Ebo operated as a rangy and aggressive close defender who hunted ball carriers and then caused turnovers with a flurry of powerful stick checks as well as timely lifts and pokes. He even executed an impressive can-opener and threw a few effective trail checks that put the ball on the ground. Ebo's scoop-and-go skills were extremely impressive too. In fact, on one remarkable series, Ebo caused a turnover with a stick check, vacuumed up the resulting GB, then turned and dashed into the offensive end. Ebo then weaved his way through the entire opposing defense and finished the play by cranking an overhand shot into the net. College coaches should be buying stock in Ebo early, as his upside is ridiculous.     At the Millon Fall Invitational, Libber proved to be a rock-solid close defender who used his solid frame, smooth lateral footwork, and fierce stick checks to shut down ball carriers. Libber did a fantastic job of getting into ball carriers early and either forcing them to bounce outside or stopping them cold. His ability to stay in front of offensive players for long stretches and continually harass their hands was impressive. Libber caused a few turnovers with powerful overhead checks as well as via a couple of well-timed trail checks. He was then quick to pounce on the ensuing ground balls and make a smart clearing pass or drop the ball to his goalie. Libber's high IQ and field awareness put him in the right spots, so that his slides and double teams were always on time.     The fact that this game-changing LSM is only a sophomore should be a scary thought for opponents in the MIAA. This past Sunday, Ohale was a force on both ends of the field. Ohale's next-level speed, nimbleness, and active stick made him a suffocating on-ball defender and a ground ball machine. There were several plays in 91's win over HHH where Ohale created a turnover, snared the resulting ground ball, and then dashed upfield to create a fast break. His ability to press out and stay glued to a ball carrier through multiple changes of direction wreaked havoc on the opposing team's offenses. Ohale's quick reactions and hand-eye coordination allowed him to dash in from the face-off wing, secure possession in a crowd, then turn and lead the fast break. Ohale also thrived as the trailing pole on transition chances.     College coaches need to stop sleeping on this available 2028 immediately. Passehl is an athletic, speedy, and agile offensive prospect with polished stick skills. This past Sunday, those assets combined with Passehl's noteworthy size allowed him to get downhill repeatedly and then fire or distribute while on the run. For a six-footer with a solid frame, Passehl also displayed unexpected shiftiness in tight spaces. Passehl also demonstrated remarkable versatility as he initiated from every offensive position on the field. His high IQ was on display during several possessions where Passehl smartly used a screen to separate from his man. Off-ball, Passehl frequently drifted or rolled into open space for clean catch-and-shoot chances.
