With Scotch Plains-Fanwood producing dominant defensive figures recently in the form of graduated All-American Caleb McDowell (Yale) and 5-star junior Noah Brown (Maryland), McNulty may very well be on his way to earning a spot on that list. He possesses great size, speed, and strength, with the ability to play close D or LSM and be effective at either position interchangeably. The Leading Edge product can press out on his matchup with precise checks and quick feet but doesn’t get himself out of position much with good makeup speed and communication. When he is able to jar the ball loose, he showcases good awareness to get the ball upfield and push in transition for an unsettled chance. As a freshman, he finished with a goal and four assists, while scooping more than 30 ground balls and winning possessions for his offense.
