About Griffin
Expert Analysis
Carey Smith | Prep Lacrosse Scout
How this elite attack prospect remains available is a mystery. Elliott is a fleet footed lefty with filthy stick skills, serious shake, and a high lacrosse IQ. He is impossible to defend 1v1 and is capable of defeating double teams too. Elliott can initiate from anywhere and create scoring opportunities for himself or teammates. His ability to start on the wing, separate from his defender and then sweep across the top of the opposing defense for a shot on the run is impressive. After Elliott has established that move, he will use a hitch or jab step to set up a dip underneath his defender for a run to the cage. Elliott also thrives when initiating from X. His shifty cuts and stick maneuvers allow Elliott to elude multiple defenders as he dashes around the corner for a scoring opportunity on the crease. Elliott has demonstrated that he can absorb significant contact on his runs to the cage and still maintain possession. If needed, the versatile Elliott can run at midfield too.
