Expert Analysis
Michael Campanile | Prep Lacrosse Scout
Wyatt Branish delivered the most clutch performance I saw all fall during the Colorado Kings’ five-goal comeback win over Sweetlax Upstate at the ALL Fall Invitational. When the game tightened up, he took over from the lefty wing. In the fourth quarter, he scored on an S-dodge with a subtle hesitation, finishing while falling to cut the deficit to 7–6. Also, he added two assists off lefty rollbacks to Sean Kilkenny, one of them was the feed that sent the game to overtime. If that wasn’t enough, Branish locked up a Division I commit on defense in overtime, forcing a rushed shot that led to the save.
Branish is an impressive talent for a lot of reasons, but his dodging and re-dodging really separate him. He has a great feel for getting that first step and working to spots where he can free his hands to shoot or open passing lanes to the backside. His hesitation moves are subtle but deadly, often freezing defenders just long enough for him to slip by. The deception in his game is next level. As a feeder, he reads slides well and isn’t afraid to look defenders off to free teammates. As a shooter, he mixes release points and subtle pauses to freeze goalies before snapping it past them. Michigan landed a legit difference-maker in Branish.
