Early in the summer, Paik stood out as one of the best poles at Maverik Showtime — the ultimate measuring stick — where he made a significant impact in the middle of the field. Possessing a high motor, Paik does a terrific job of getting physical with ball-carriers, laying big hits while keeping penalties to a minimum. He’s surgical with his checks but not overzealous, and tends to be a force in the riding and clearing game thanks to his assertiveness. Going forward, continuing to polish his 1v1 cover ability will be crucial, though that’s the case for the lion’s share of longstick midfield prospects at this age. It’s evident that he was a priority recruit for Princeton, and it’s a really good fit on both sides.
