Goldman’s skill set projects best at LSM, where his athleticism, aggressiveness, and ability in transition stand out. On ball, he’s confrontational, throwing hard checks and embracing physical matchups. His greatest strengths come in taking calculated risks to cause turnovers and making plays between the lines.

Goldman is a first-time ground ball getter who isn’t afraid to mix it up, and once he has possession he’s confident pushing the ball over the midline to spark transition. If he continues to refine his on-ball footwork, Goldman has the tools to become a strong next-level prospect and a valuable pickup for a college program.

Goldman is a reliable close defender who disrupts midfield matchups with speed and reach. His stick is always at the ready for takeaways, something I really liked from his film. He anticipates passes and dodges well, closes gaps with precision, and moves with his opponent. He watches for hip movements and never allows his match-up the first step. Goldman knows his way around, simple as that. His strong positioning also puts him a step above the rest.
