About Hunter
Expert Analysis
Niko Amato | Prep Lacrosse Scout
A left-handed offensive catalyst with repeatable production and elite decision-making, Hunter Metz blends efficiency with creativity in a way few high school attackers can match. He doesn’t just rack up points — he raises the floor and ceiling simultaneously for the players around him.
Metz’s game is built on possession intelligence. He reads defensive shapes like a veteran, drifting into windows before they appear and making the high-level decision without forcing it. When McDonogh has momentum, Metz amplifies it; when they need composure, he becomes the stabilizer. That adaptability — not flash — is what makes him one of the most scalable offensive weapons in the 2026 class.
Hunter’s production backs it up: 22 varsity goals as a freshman during the Eagles’ 2023 championship season. He was also named USA Select U16 MVP, a reflection of how consistently he impacts top-tier environments. Metz registered 37 goals & 23 assists (60 points) during McDonogh’s 2024 MIAA title run, extending the program’s three-peat! He totalled 41 goals & 30 assists (71 points) as a junior with major contributions in each season.
Recently named a team captain for 2026, Metz enters his senior year as the program’s embodiment of high-IQ offense — poised, creative, and reliable in possession. He’s the type of lefty who can finish in space, manufacture his own shot, or become a release valve when defenses overextend.
