Expert Analysis
Niko Amato | Prep Lacrosse Scout
A returning US Lacrosse All-American (Michigan), Ben Waechter has already cemented himself as a defensive anchor for Brother Rice. The sophomore helped lead the Warriors to a 19–5 record in 2025, including a 9–8 overtime victory against Detroit Catholic Central to capture the Michigan High School Athletic Association Division 1 State Championship — the program’s 17th title. Ben combines size, anticipation, and elite lacrosse IQ to control the field, shutting down top offensive threats with a steady, commanding presence.
Structured, disciplined, and fiercely competitive, Waechter thrives in organized defensive sets while imposing his own authority. He reads offenses like a seasoned strategist, orchestrating teammates, sliding with precision, and turning pressure into opportunity. His reliability gives Brother Rice a rock-solid foundation on every possession.
What separates Ben is his composure under fire. Whether matched one-on-one, managing slides, or initiating clears, he consistently executes with poise and efficiency. His timing, anticipation, and knack for forcing turnovers make him a momentum-shifting presence and a nightmare for opposing offenses.
Verbally committed to Duke, Ben Waechter projects as a dynamic, cerebral defender at the next level. With discipline, instincts, and controlled aggression, he’s built to anchor the Blue Devils’ defense while fueling the high-octane offense they’re known for.
