Brady Pokorny
About Brady
Expert Analysis
Ty Xanders | Prep Lacrosse Scout
The third and final Eclipse standout featured on this list, Pokorny is a constant threat to take over a game. The powerful left-handed presence dodges with purpose and has a downright nasty shot from the outside, but he’s far more than just an off-ball weapon. After being used as such earlier in his career, a larger role was asked of Pokorny as a junior and he was up to the task, finishing with over 90 points in 2023 and operating with the ball in his stick much more frequently. With a tremendous feel for the game and big moments, he’s great at taking advantage of poor approaches and defensive miscues, and when the shot isn’t there, he consistently finds his teammates open with his pinpoint skip passes. More than anything, Pokorny is incredibly creative. He plays with flair and is always willing to take risks, and as a coach, you have no choice but to live with it because the ball ends up in the back of the net more often than not.
With Pat Kavanagh and Jake Taylor moving on after this season, the Irish will have two openings at attack, so Pokorny is a logical choice to fill one of them. There’s no doubt that Chris Kavanagh will become more of a focal point for opponents’ game plans, and Pokorny looks more than ready to quickly step into a prominent role. Naturally, he’d also be an asset for Notre Dame’s extra-man offense, which currently ranks No. 1 in college lacrosse by a wide margin and will have to replace most of its pieces in 2025.
