Expert Analysis
Ty Xanders | Prep Lacrosse Scout
The son of the all-time winningest coach in Penn lacrosse history, Murphy didn’t just get his feet wet at the varsity level on a roster loaded with veteran talent. A slick lefty, Murphy ultimately seized a starting role and ended the 2025 season with 22 goals and 14 assists in largely an off-ball finishing role. He’s everything you’d expect from a player with his bloodlines and then some, possessing an innate feel for the game and never failing to make the right play. Murphy’s feet, hands, and vision are rather ridiculous: he’s constantly making defenders miss with his jitterbug tendencies with the ball in his stick and putting feeds right on his teammates’ earholes as a passer. However, he doesn’t need the ball to be productive, and although I’d imagine that was a skill he already possessed, but one that grew last spring with Malvern. If Sunday served as any indication, there’s no doubt that Murphy looks poised to take on a much more significant role within the Friars’ offense.
