Expert Analysis
Carey Smith | Prep Lacrosse Scout
Wade is an extremely twitchy, two-handed attackman who college coaches are sleeping on. During his incredible sophomore campaign, Wade recorded 42 goals to go along with 15 assists. This multi-skilled 2028 fired home a season-high six goals in a win over Greater Latrobe. Wade’s explosive first step, serious shake, and polished stick skills make him impossible to defend 1v1. Once Wade has cooked the initial defender, he can dash to open space for a 12–15-yard rip. Or Wade can continue his push to the cage, elude the slide defenders, and then finish around the crease. College coaches will love Wade’s ability to get dodge from the wings as well as the corners and put pressure on an opposing defense. Wade is the frequent recipient of double teams. When faced with that defensive scheme, Wade does a fantastic job of slipping between defenders or recognizing the double team early and then moving the ball to an open teammate. Wade has demonstrated that he can work the high crease area for catch-and-finish goals too.
