No shock to us here. @Shaneoleary28 was a matchup nightmare in high school and it’s continued into college. A stud three sport athlete and an even better person. Can’t wait to watch Shane rip it up this Spring!

Position Spotlight: Attack w/ Shane O’Leary of @UMassMLacrosse@GovernorsLax
(1) Highlights the importance of this position needing quick change of speed AND change of direction.
(2) Always dodging with head up, scanning the field with a soft gaze.
(3) Searches for SSD matchups.
(4) Watching his off-ball defender to exploit cutting opportunities.
(5) Exceptional ability to finish up the hash.
If you haven’t seen this kid play, make sure to check out UMass in 2024. He’s an incredible player and a matchup nightmare for SSD’s and poles alike. Young attackmen should study his game because he’s one of the best doing it.
SUPERSTAR IN THE MAKING:
Holy Cross has got themselves a STUD back.
In today's victory over Merrimack, Jordan Fuller had 13 rushing attempts for 120 yards and 4 touchdowns. 9.2 yards per carry is OFF THE CHARTS🤯🤯🤯
The sophomore RB scored FIVE TOUCHDOWNS.
BE AWARE. @jordanfuller27 IS THE NEXT GREAT👀

(1) As with the clip above, he recognizes short stick matchups and wins that matchup almost every time. Here, recognizes the invert and exploits the matchup
If you haven’t heard the name Shane O’Leary from @UMassMLacrosse@GovernorsLax , he’s next up in the A10
He possesses the ability to be a great feeder and was a QB in HS. Great athleticism, ability to use both hands, and great field vision set him apart from the pack
