was a huge reason why. He was the only goalie on the roster and stopped at least eight shots in their 10–7 win over 2Way. He made stops everywhere—high, low, five-hole, even sacrificing his body when he had to. Of the goals he gave up, several were doorstep dunks, and even on those, he read the release well.
Looking at him, you might not think much of him because of his size, but O’Connell can ball. He communicates at a high level, moves efficiently in the cage, and isn’t scared about coming out for ground balls or getting involved in the clear. He’s strong on high shots and has the technique to sweep and take away off-stick low. He makes a ton of clean saves that lead to smooth outlets and pushes the tempo in transition. O’Connell is riding real momentum after that championship—don’t be surprised if it carries straight through to September 1.
