Darcy Muegge Darcy Muegge 5'11" | M Western Reserve Academy | 2027 OH , an Ontario native, absolutely balled out against Loyola Blakefield on Thursday, finishing with five goals and an assist. Four of those goals came off dodges from behind the cage, whether out of two-man actions or pure isolation, and he consistently found his way through the Loyola defense.

If the question is why Loyola did not simply send a hard slide at him every time, the answer is layered. On his first and fourth goals, Muegge caught the defense sleeping. He jogged behind GLE in a relaxed, almost casual manner, then snapped into a quick move to get topside, sprinted up the hashes, and dunked it on the goalie before Loyola could get its slide package organized. His third goal came out of an invert look just before halftime; Muegge faced blanketed coverage coming up the hashes, making Loyola feel safe, but he was still able to get a shot off and score with seven seconds left. His last goal of the day was the most impressive: he held the slide with a subtle passing posture, changed speeds, and then scored right-handed, showcasing the depth of his dodging toolkit.

While most of his production came off the dodge, his second goal highlighted his off-ball feel and his hands. He cut from behind the cage, caught the ball under pressure, and snapped off a low release with absurd quickness, leaving the goalie with no chance. The Brown commit is a player coaches will have to circle on the scouting report moving forward, and even once Loyola fully recognized the damage he was doing, they still struggled to take away the full range of his skills.
