Expert Analysis
Ty Xanders | Prep Lacrosse Scout
Playing with a high level of confidence, Whitman is in the midst of a breakthrough season for the Lakers and has consistently made an impact every time I’ve seen BL, both on film and in person. In Friday afternoon’s home matchup against McDonogh, he delivered an electric fourth-quarter goal from his own 40-yard line against the Eagles’ 10-man ride, tying the game. Whitman plays with tenacity while remaining under control, and his decision-making and off-ball instincts are outstanding. He frequently gets his stick on passes — knocking them down or picking them off — before pushing the ball in transition. He’s also effective as a slider, makes fundamentally sound approaches, and does an excellent job steering his assignment away from high-percentage scoring areas. Based on what I’ve seen over the past few weeks, Whitman is certainly deserving of Division I attention.
