Expert Analysis
Michael Campanile | Prep Lacrosse Scout
When a Division I coach was asked who stood out most at the Best in Class event, the answer came without hesitation: “The most college-ready player is Brimhall.” That kind of endorsement speaks volumes — and after watching him perform, it’s easy to see why. Brimhall is a dynamic left-handed attackman with a lethal scoring touch. His shot is one of the most advanced in the 2027 class, drawing comparisons to Brennan O’Neill for the way he hides the release point and delivers with pinpoint accuracy. He pulls the ball behind his body, making it incredibly difficult for goalies to track, and then snaps his wrists at the last second to put it exactly where he wants.
But he’s far from just a shooter. Brimhall’s dodging ability from the lefty wing is elite. He has a smooth, patient approach, using hesitation moves and subtle changes of speed to freeze sliding defenders and create separation. His IQ, combined with his physical tools, allows him to manipulate matchups and control the tempo of the offense. What sets Brimhall apart is not just the production, but the polish. He plays with the poise and presence of a much older player, and his game already mirrors what college coaches are looking for.
