Song is a versatile and rangy pole with a knack for causing turnovers via devastating stick checks. To be honest, Song’s ability to deliver a timely, powerful, and clean stick check that puts the ball on the ground is almost a form of art. With his athleticism, high IQ, and refined footwork, Song can run at both LSM and close defense. Combine those assets with Song’s ground ball skills and some lucky college program will get a pole who is a plus on the face-off wing, too. In 6v6 action, Song does an incredible job of getting into ball carriers early in their dodge and knocking them off-balance. Off-ball, Song has displayed tremendous instincts for when to leave his man and drop a turnover-causing trail check on the ball carrier. Song has also proven that he can smartly navigate through or over screen action.         

After playing a sizable role within the Churchmen defense as a freshman, Song has been playing with a ton of confidence as of late and looks every bit of someone who will be high up on coaches’ boards next fall. He played for both Red Hots National and his Philly-based Brotherly Love squad and was a force throughout the weekend, showcasing his ranginess, flashy checks, and timely playmaking ability. A commanding presence, Song looks to have improved his off-ball play and has stepped up as a voice of the defense. He uses his stick impeccably well and loves to throw it around to make things happen. Song made one of the most impressive plays I saw all weekend, executing a gorgeous over-the-head check to give his Brotherly Love team the ball back down a goal in the waning seconds. Although they weren’t able to hold onto it and tie things up, the play spoke volumes about how much of a threat he is all over the field.
