Expert Analysis
Ty Xanders | Prep Lacrosse Scout
Wise was someone who stepped in and showed out this spring, stepping up for a Salisbury defense that was hampered by injuries to its senior stalwarts. Facing a rigorous schedule and passing the test, the Georgia native had every reason to come into the summer with a high level of confidence and parlayed that into Defensive MVP recognition at the HS Summer Championships in Newport. At NAL, he showed off his elite footwork, matching feet with the quickest of dodgers and effectively blanketing each matchup he faced. Off-ball, he has excellent instincts and thrives in the passing lanes. Wise also slides with authority and ill intent, often laying out unsuspecting offensive players or knocking the ball free. He’s not the biggest cat, but he plays with controlled aggression and consistently puts himself in position to make plays and to keep his matchup from doing much of anything. Fundamentally sound and well-coached, Wise is a promising defensive recruit who checks a lot of boxes.

Wise is a physical, elite-level shutdown defender who sets the tone for Culver’s defense with his strength and discipline. He possesses excellent footwork and lateral quickness, allowing him to stay locked on even the most agile attackmen. His defensive base is rock-solid. Wise plays low, balanced, and with great leverage, making it nearly impossible for opponents to get around him. He thrives on contact, using his power to disrupt dodges and control matchups with his combination of athleticism, technique, and physicality. Wise projects as a high-level Division I defender capable of anchoring any back line.
