Expert Analysis
Michael Campanile | Prep Lacrosse Scout
I ran out of space next to Choi’s name while tracking saves at Showtime. I had him down for 17 saves in the two halves I watched, plus a couple more in the All-Star Game. He was phenomenal from start to finish. His hand speed is elite, and one of the best examples came on an off-stick high save against a quick-release shot up the hash during team play. He also stood out with how well he reacted to ball movement. Whether it was pipe-to-pipe action or swings from X, he was efficient with his footwork and tracked the ball extremely well.
What pushed him over the top was his X-factor. He is not afraid to pick off passes, scoop ground balls, and come out of the cage to end possessions. At minimum, Choi looks like a top-five goalie in the class. His ceiling is high enough that he has a legitimate case to be the best in the group.

There are positives and negatives when evaluating goalies in a showcase setting, where they lack familiarity and structure with the defenders. He started off with a big game but as the day progressed, things didn’t always go his team’s way, yet Choi responded admirably and showed off the qualities that make him a promising young goalie prospect with considerable upside. A highly athletic lefty with an explosive top hand, Choi made some acrobatic saves when going low. Out of the cage, he was more than happy to clear the ball over midfield himself and show off his athleticism. He communicated at a high level and seemed to be a rock-solid leader, especially when his team needed his positivity following some defensive miscues.
