Merklinger is a marksman with time and room to shoot and works hard to get the ball in his stick. The Seton Hall Prep product has good agility and footwork mixed with a quick first step, making it tough for defenders to keep up with him. He can beat you with either hand and has an array of dodges he utilizes to create space from his defender or initiate offense. He can also beat you without the ball, showing his ability to use V-cuts and backdoor cuts to help his teammates find him. He finished with a hat trick in his quarterfinals matchup vs. Brotherly Love and then put a stamp on the weekend with a four-goal performance coming in the championship. He is a good leader for this BBL offense and does a great job of dodging to initiate offense and then dumping it off once a slide comes to get the defense out of position. He will be fun to watch for the next two years at the high school level and should garner a lot of attention during the recruiting process this fall.
