Expert Analysis
Ty Xanders | Prep Lacrosse Scout
Malkiel’s size stands out, especially given that he’s four to five inches taller than his brother, Porter, a sophomore at Princeton, and Mackie, a senior committed to Utah. Unlike many players his age, he knows how to use his size to his advantage when initiating contact with defenders—an area that will only improve as he gains confidence. He went off for a hat trick in a 6-3 win over Hilltop, finishing in traffic and scoring while drawing a flag. A threat every time the ball is in his stick, he floats athletically and is generally a bear to handle, and he was able to make noteworthy plays under duress. Malkiel had a series of impressive complementary plays, including a gorgeous one-handed groundball in traffic. Going forward, improving his off-hand will be paramount, but he checks just about every other box.
