Expert Analysis
Dan Arestia | Prep Lacrosse Scout
Lawrenceville really didn’t dodge much in this game. It may seem counterintuitive to say “the team that didn’t dodge scored 19 goals”, but the gameplan was to let the ball do the work, and the Big Red executed it. Gately understood it as well as anyone. He’d carry the ball to space between defenders and step in for shots, forcing a defender to commit earlier than they wanted to. If nobody stepped to him, he’d let the shot go. If someone did, it was a pass ahead or a skip through the zone for a shot for someone else. He and Matia applied constant pressure as ball handlers, constantly forcing Deerfield defenders into choosing between holding in their zone and rotating against an offense that spins the ball as well as anyone in the nation.
