Coming off a Group 2 state championship last spring, Summit is loaded up and ready to go once again, with its previously young core of players now older and wiser. Offensively, it starts with senior Daniel Flaim Daniel Flaim 6'0" | M Summit | 2024 NJ , who had a terrific 2023 season, leading the team in goals (39) and points (57) while finishing second on the team with 18 assists and helping the Hilltoppers to a 15-4 season. Summit won its 5th straight Union County Tournament championship against Westfield in a 10-9 barnburner, with Flaim posting two goals and an assist. In a 9-7 win over Wall in the Group 2 state final, Flaim tallied two goals. A Villanova signee and 3-star recruit, Flaim can do it all. He has great stick skills and can use both hands fluidly as a passer and shooter. When dodging, he displays excellent footwork and one of his best traits is that he always keeps his head up, looking for cutters or an open man on the back side of the defense. He works well in a man-up unit with his ability to shoot from range and thread the needle to a teammate. On the other side of the ball, Flaim can hold his own on the defensive side and is very active and physical when defending on clears. He was awarded 1st Team All-Group 2 honors for his efforts and will look to emulate that this year.
