About Freddy
Expert Analysis
Carey Smith | Prep Lacrosse Scout
The first item that pops about Helmen’s versatile skill set is his catch and shoot abilities. Helmen’s timely off-ball cuts, drifts and sweeps enable him to find creases in the opposing defense. Once Helmen has received a pass, his quick release and ability to shoot with both hands allows him to find the back of the net frequently. Helmen’s patience and deep bag of stick fakes makes him an elite finisher around the crease. This athletic prospect with considerable size can also initiate from anywhere in the offensive end. When Helmen attacks the cage, he can run through significant contact before firing a shot or using his field vision to find an open teammate. As a bonus to his offensive skills, when Helmen runs at attack, he is a plus player on the ride.
