Manning played well in the loss, seeing shots from great shooters for Mountain Lakes while registering eight saves for his team. He came up with a big save early to keep the game scoreless and also showed flashes of his athleticism and effort by hustling to the end-line on shots, looking for any chance to help his squad. The Patriot Lacrosse product stood tall in cage, making a few saves in tight with quick hands and good instincts, and on clears, he did a good job of staying patient, working the ball up the field methodically. He brings energy to the defensive unit with his communication to his teammates, while also delivering crowd-stunning saves as well. Manning has come up big for Madison all year so far, and I don’t expect that to change down the stretch and the back-half of this 2026 season.
