Ty Xanders | Prep Lacrosse Scout
A record-setting attackman whose 195 points this spring were the most in the state, Genco is well on pace to finish in the Top 10 all time in New York, playing Class D ball just south of Buffalo. He has an impressive arsenal of moves to get topside and finish from the island, using his sturdy 190-pound frame and physicality, IQ, and exceptional shooting ability to his advantage. While he may not be the type of athlete that will make a habit out of beating high-level defenders cleanly off the dodge, he’s an incredibly gifted lacrosse player who has enough in his bag to get his hands free and score with flair. Genco did just that at Naptown — where he registered a hat trick in the championship — and again on Thursday at IMLCA. I loved what I saw, though my main critique would be that I’d like to see more activity from him off-ball. At the same time, I get it, considering he probably doesn’t have to play without the ball during the high school season very often. Given how consistently productive he is and what he brings to the table, I’ll be intrigued to see where he lands at the next level.
