About Riley
Expert Analysis
Niko Amato | Prep Lacrosse Scout
Riley Woods scored 74 points (56 goals & 18 assists) as a sophomore. Riley was named Honorable Mention All-Midwest Scholastic Lacrosse Association in 2025. He returns for the Eagles as the MLSA Preseason Player of the Year for 2026. Woods is a left-handed attacker who can put the ball in the net from anywhere on the field. He capitalizes on transition opportunities & conversely works hard in the ride. Riley is known for making plays in tight spaces, like his around-the-world goal on the run down the hash vs Spire (OH). He scored 6 goals against Gonzaga (DC), all of which were strong-handed. Woods was the #1 overall pick in the Ontario Junior Lacrosse League for indoor. His skill set makes it almost impossible to take away his left, even when you know it is coming. Riley is remarkably accurate with an array of finishing angles, including an unorthodox backhand shovel from the right wing. He is a tough assignment for any defender because of his situational awareness & ability to be effective off the ball. Woods has excellent hand-eye coordination & the ability to haul in almost any pass thrown his way. He gets his shot off quickly & shows range with a great ability to shoot around defenders that are screening the goalie. Verbally committed to the admissions process at Princeton.
