Expert Analysis
Ty Xanders | Prep Lacrosse Scout
As much as any defender in the class, I’m super intrigued to see where this Oklahoma native’s game is in a year or two now that he’s at Western Reserve playing under Dylan Sheridan, who has an excellent track record of developing defensemen. Croteau is a massive piece of clay that is undoubtedly raw but will benefit from a step up in coaching and competition. Watching him at Great 8, I was impressed with his ability to get his stick on balls for knockdowns and clean interceptions, taking up a ton of space in passing lanes and making opponents think twice before throwing skip passes. I felt as if he came and went a little bit in terms of his consistency and off-ball play, but his upside is considerable. Dave Pietramala has taken several promising project types from non-hotbeds over the years, and Croteau fits in that bucket, 6-foot-6 and all.
