About Flynt
Expert Analysis
Carey Smith | Prep Lacrosse Scout
With his imposing size, athleticism, and active stick, Leverett was a menacing on-ball presence at the Committed Combine. Still, what was even more impressive than his on-ball pressure was Leverett’s work as a team defender. Leverett routinely executed timely slides and double teams that caused turnovers. Leverett’s feel for when to come off his man and attack the ball carrier was incredible. His effective use of trail checks on those plays was next level. Leverett’s hedges, switches, and recoveries were on point too. After watching Leverett at the Committed Combine, I predict that he could have an impact for Princeton during his first two years on campus.

Flynt Leverett played a central role in Culver’s championship run, helping lead the Eagles to both the Midwest Scholastic Lacrosse Association title & Victory Event’s National Prep Championship to close his junior season. Leverett serves as a centerpiece on defense, understanding the importance of becoming an off-ball All-American & controlling possessions beyond direct matchups. He plays with discipline & decisiveness, showing the ability to guard the ball when called upon while excelling within Culver’s defensive scheme. Flynt is abundantly agile, capable of rolling over to support doubles, closing space quickly, & disrupting offensive rhythm before plays fully develop. His defensive presence is defined by awareness, control, & timing. Leverett reads dodgers well, using footwork, positioning, & an active stick to stay engaged without overcommitting. He is capable of defending behind the goal, up top, or contributing as a long-stick midfielder, giving Culver versatility across defensive personnel groupings. In transition, Flynt brings physicality & intent, capable of separating opponents from the ball & creating momentum-changing plays. His willingness to communicate & remain accountable within the structure reflects a defender who understands both individual assignments & team cohesion. Named a team captain entering his senior season, Leverett projects as a defensive leader prepared to compete at the next level. Verbally committed to the admissions process at Princeton.

Although I haven’t been blown away by the ’26 defensemen so far, Leverett is an exception. In full transparency, he’s a recent addition formerly in the Class of 2025 who transferred into Culver from St. John’s (Texas) and thrived with Iron Horse Houston. Watching the 6’1, 190-pounder for the first time earlier in the fall, it was his clearing passes that first caught my eye — everything was on the money, and he was poised even when under duress from riding attackmen. As an on-ball defender, his length is a tremendous asset and he pairs it with relentless physicality, showing off his football background when sliding with the body to make his presence felt. Non-hotbed defensemen have developed well at Culver under Jon Birsner and his staff, so I don’t doubt that Leverett will continue to learn the intricacies of off-ball play and polish other fundamentals to round out his game.
