If not for Gaebel’s brilliant showing in goal, this game wouldn’t have been even close. Making at least 16 stops (though it was probably more), the Bryant-bound junior kept coming up with big stops to give his team a fighting chance. In addition, he kept his eyes upfield in the clearing game, looking to get the ball up and out. I was most impressed with his knack for making clean stops, especially in the first half, along with his explosive top hand. He’s super fluid and athletic, which helped him make some flat-out ridiculous stops in tight. St. Sebastian’s only had one goal over the final 18 or so minutes, and Gaebel and his defense were the reason why, as he was absolutely in the Arrows’ heads. I had him down for nine saves in the second half alone, and most of them were rather pretty. Bryant’s getting a good one.
