A major part of Sebs’ run to the ISL semifinals, Haggerty moved up into the midfield rotation after injuries opened up slots. His time with Laxachusetts really developed his ability to contribute to an ISL offense with consistency, and that is a huge part of how he became a two-way ace for the Arrows. His game is very reminiscent of another ISL product that is having success at Bowdoin, former Govs middie Huck Trafton. Seeing those two players on the same midfield line isn’t going to happen, but the like-for-like exchange of ISL sandpaper grittiness is going to have defensive coordinators in the NESCAC throwing their hands up for another four years.

A talented lefty who finished with a hat trick, Haggerty picked an opportune time to have what was likely his best game of the season. With Sebs down 3-0 early, he registered the Arrows’ first goal of the game on a high to low bouncer off a jumper, a byproduct of Jake Beck Jake Beck 5'10" | M/A St. Sebastian’s School | 2027 MA drawing a slide on a dodge from behind the cage. Next, he swept to his left and perfectly placed a shot between the far pipe and the goalie, which came in the middle of a 3-0 run during the second quarter. A tone-setter of sorts on Wednesday, Haggerty had another gorgeous shot that kicked off the scoring in the third quarter, dodging hard with his right hand past the hash with minimal angle and pacing it over the goalie’s shoulder. Throughout the day, I loved how he dodged with purpose and got things done in a variety of ways. Still uncommitted, Haggerty put out some good midseason and late season film that’s worth a look. I can see him being a priority recruit for top Division III programs this summer, and I’m intrigued to see where he winds up.
