Expert Analysis
Ty Xanders | Prep Lacrosse Scout
Earning an evaluation from our Prep Redzone Ohio scouts as recently as this week, Hayes is a standout defensive back on the gridiron. On the lacrosse field, he’s got outstanding footwork and could go step for step with some of the more athletic midfield dodgers in attendance. Beyond that, he plays with a nonstop motor and is a stalwart between the lines, crushing it on the wings of face-off wings and winning 50-50 balls. Hayes’ stick work is super impressive: he’s got an awesome handle and added a bit of flair with a pretty BTB assist in the last round of games.

If anyone could be considered an all-around star, it would be Hayes. The defenseman made plays on offense, defense, and during transitions. He looked like the fastest player on the field and had no trouble running the length of it. Defensively, he was unbeatable, knocking the ball to the ground multiple times with his checks and locking-down whoever he encountered. Offensively, he was aggressive with the ball in his stick and found a few shooting opportunities.

Hayes is a talented multisport athlete who earned the title of LSM of the Year during his freshman season. He has the ability to identify and seize opportunities, making him a very active player who can create turnovers and score goals. He is a valuable asset on both ends of the field. Hayes tests his opponents, quickly determining if they are uncomfortable and then exploiting those weaknesses. He’s a ground ball maniac and a standout player who still has plenty of room for growth.
