is in a spot to be a real X-factor for the Gaels this spring because of his obvious scoring ability. He’s a natural attackman who can do damage from his comfort zone on the righty wing — when his feet are set, he’s lights out. The release is clean, he can hit spots, and he’s not a one-look shooter either. He’ll change arm slots, and when he adds a hitch to widen the angle, it’s tough for goalies.
With the attack spots largely spoken for, Curtin’s path to minutes could be through the midfield line — and that’s where his growth will matter. The off-ball stuff is already there: he’s good at finding soft gaps, he gets the ball out quickly, and he doesn’t need a ton of time to turn a touch into a shot. He’s great at drawing and making quick reads in transition that translate in any system. If he can adapt to more long dodging as a midfielder and the speed that the MIAA presents, Curtin can show off that scoring ability at the varsity level.
