Paris Riverwolves	Hunter Aggus T-R 01/11/00 6-2 210 Ancaster, ON
Declared early for the 2019 NLL Entry Draft Traded to the Six Nations Arrows in Janaury 2020 2019 Hamilton Bengals OLA Jr B 2019 Oakville Titans OSL 2019 Burlington Chiefs OLA Jr A 2020 Paris Riverwolves ALL 2020 2nd Team Arena Lacrosse League All-Star 2018 World Junior Lacrosse Championship - Canada - Gold Medal Won 2017 Meredith Cup with the Brantford Warriors   IL Indoor 04/27/20 - Stamper's Musings: Imagining the 2020 NLL Draft Without College Players 7 Philadelphia Wings Hunter Aggus, RT, Hamilton Bengals Jr B and Paris RiverWolves Aggus is a risk/reward type player. He's big and strong, can play a robust game and has the speed and stick skills to be dangerous in transition. Aggus put up 35 goals in the last two Jr B seasons with the Bengals and got into a handful of games with the Jr A Burlington Chiefs. He also played for Canada at the World Juniors in 2018 and has spent the last two winters with Paris in the ALL; in both situations he showed he can be one of the better players on the floor. He also does at least one thing every game that just makes you shake your head and wonder what he was thinking. The latter tendency must have overshadowed his talent for NLL evaluators as he was passed over after declaring early for last year's draft.   IL Indoor 08/24/20 - Stamper's Musings: Who Are the Top NLL Prospects Actually Available to Play This Year? There are other runners who will contenders to go in the top half of the draft. Among them are Delta Islanders lefty transition player Brendan Szabo, lefty forward Adam Kitchen from the Jr B Clarington Green Gaels, Barrie Lakeshores lefty tranny Oriale Mandeville, and Hunter Aggus, a righty transition who played for the Hamilton Bengals Jr B and the Paris RiverWolves in the ALL. Bryan Costabile is also an intriguing prospect; with no box experience but a dynamic game that could translate, the Notre Dame grad played in the PLL this summer so he has moved on from college   IL Indoor 09/11/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 41-50 49 Hunter Aggus, RT, Hamilton Bengals Jr B and Paris RiverWolves Aggus is a risk/reward type player. He's big and strong, can play a robust game and has the speed and stick skills to be dangerous in transition. Aggus put up 35 goals in the last two Jr B seasons with the Bengals and got into a handful of games with the Jr A Burlington Chiefs. He also played for Canada at the World Juniors in 2018 and has spent the last two winters with Paris in the ALL; in both situations he showed he can be one of the better players on the floor. He also tends to do make at least one glaringly poor decision per game. The latter tendency must have overshadowed his talent for NLL evaluators as he was passed over after declaring early for last year's draft. I'm not going to slam Aggus too much for making mistakes; we all make them and I know I would reconsider some of my decisions when I was his age if given the chance. With solid coaching and some maturation, he could develop into a solid pro player.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2016 Hamilton Bengals OLA JR B 1 0 0 0 0 2017 Hamilton Bengals OLA JR B 7 1 1 2 10 2017 Brantford Warriors OLA JR C 9 12 4 16 29 2018 Burlington Chiefs OLA JR A 2 0 0 0 2 2018 Hamilton Bengals OLA JR B 20 20 22 42 51 2018 Canada WJLC 2 0 4 4 2 2019 Paris RiverWolves ARENA LL 13 4 4 8 20 2019 Oakville Titans OSL SR B 4 0 2 2 4 2019 Burlington Chiefs OLA JR A 7 0 0 0 8 2019 Hamilton Bengals OLA JR B 14 15 23 38 20 2020 Paris RiverWolves ARENA LL 10 7 4 11 32 Totals SENIOR B 4 0 2 2 4 Totals ARENA LL 23 11 8 19 52 Totals JUNIOR A 9 0 0 0 10 Totals JUNIOR B 42 36 46 82 81 Totals JUNIOR C 9 12 4 16 29 Totals WJLC 2 0 4 4 2   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2017 Hamilton Bengals OLA JR B 1 0 0 0 0 2017 Brantford Warriors OLA JR C 14 19 9 28 33 2018 Hamilton Bengals OLA JR B 4 4 0 4 12 2018 Canada WJLC 1 0 1 1 10 2019 Paris RiverWolves ARENA LL 3 0 0 0 2 2019 Oakville Titans OSL SR B 1 0 0 0 0 2019 Hamilton Bengals OLA JR B 9 7 8 15 33 Totals SENIOR B 1 0 0 0 0 Totals ARENA LL 3 0 0 0 2 Totals JUNIOR B 14 11 8 19 45 Totals JUNIOR C 14 19 9 28 33 Totals WJLC 1 0 1 1 10

PLL/Archers	Grant Ament F-R 04/15/97 5-9 165 Doylestown, NY Penn State
2020 Archers LC PLL 2019 USILA Division I First Team All-American 2017 USILA Division I Honorable Mention All-American   IL Indoor 10/22/19 - Stamper's Musings: Early 2020 NLL Mock Draft, Plus Who to Watch for '21 & '22 Grant Ament RF Penn State If you're looking for an early candidate for one of the first American field players taken, how about Grant Ament? Penn State has a dynamic attack, with Mac O'Keefe and Dylan Foulds likely to go in the first two or three rounds of the NLL draft; the talented Ament could ride the draft wave with them, particularly if he is able to get some box experience in the interim. Ament produced his second straight 30-goal season with the Lions in 2019 (the previous one was 2017, as he redshirted in '18), but what really pops out is his 96 assists this past spring.   IL Indoor 08/24/20 - Stamper's Musings: Who Are the Top NLL Prospects Actually Available to Play This Year? Grant Ament, RF, PLL Archers and Penn State Ament doesn't have box experience, but he has loads of skill and a game that looks like it should translate fairly indoors. Given how quickly he adjusted and starred in the PLL this summer, Ament appears to be a quick learner. I'd have to imagine he'd be a practice squad guy to begin, but a team could venture a pick as high as the second round on him if they think he can evolve in the box the way that Matt Rambo has for Philadelphia.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 31-40 35 Grant Ament, RF, PLL Archers and Penn State Ament is a three-time All-American and the first Nittany Lion to be a Tewaaraton Award finalist. He was sixth all-time in NCAA assists when he graduated, then he went to a strong PLL rookie season this summer. He's got plenty of talent, but he also has no box experience and stands just 5-9 while weighing 165 pounds, according to his Penn State bio. Both can be overcome, but it will likely take some time and patience on the part of a coaching staff for Ament to earn his stripes in the box game.   Playing from Behind - #26 Overall - @GrantAment @MammothLax I imagine that Philly likely trades up and takes him early in the 2nd. But since I do not do trades in this, I have COL taking him just based on upside alone. I’m a lot higher on Ament’s transition to the NLL than I am on Sowers’.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 27 Halifax Grant Ament, RF, PLL Archers and Penn State Ament is the popular field guy this year who folks think can make the adjustment to the box game quickly and successfully. There's good reason for that. The three-time All-American has great vision and talent. The quickness and shiftiness in his game could translate well indoors. Halifax has a deep depth chart at right forward, but competition is always good. + Athleticism. - No box experience. Comp Kyle Buchanan. While not a big player, Buchanan can turn on a dime and has elite agility.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM

A season in the ALL with Six Nations bolsters his candidacy for the draft; Argent was a core member of the Snipers offence, finishing second on the team with 29 points in 11 games.   IL Indoor 09/11/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 41-50 50 Tye Argent, LF, Hamilton Bengals Jr B and Six Nations Snipers Argent is a smaller player (5-11, 160 pounds), which always makes earning a spot at the higher levels of the game challenging, but he's willing to go inside and do the dirty work to play a depth role as needed. Argent scored 39 goals and 96 points in Jr B in 2019 but put up only 9 points (including 5 goals) in seven games with Jr A Burlington. A season in the ALL with Six Nations bolsters his candidacy for the draft; Argent was a core member of the Snipers offence, finishing second on the team with 29 points in 11 games and showed he can handle suiting up against men, even at his size. He's another player who could have really benefitted from a 2020 summer season, in which he was expected to play a key role for Burlington.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2016 Hamilton Bengals OLA JR B 1 1 1 2 0 2016 Brantford Warriors OLA JR C 12 16 10 26 52 2017 Burlington Chiefs OLA JR A 1 0 0 0 0 2017 Hamilton Bengals OLA JR B 19 23 22 45 6 2017 Brantford Warriors OLA JR C 2 3 2 5 2 2018 Hamilton Bengals OLA JR B 14 21 27 48 20 2019 Burlington Chiefs OLA JR A 7 5 4 9 0 2019 Hamilton Bengals OLA JR B 20 39 57 96 39 2020 Six Nations Snipers ARENA LL 11 14 15 29 8 Totals ARENA LL 11 14 15 29 8 Totals JUNIOR A 8 5 4 9 0 Totals JUNIOR B 54 84 107 191 65 Totals JUNIOR C 14 19 12 31 54   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2016 Brantford Warriors OLA JR C 2 0 1 1 0 2017 Hamilton Bengals OLA JR B 8 1 2 3 2 2017 Brantford Warriors OLA JR C 16 29 24 53 41 2018 Hamilton Bengals OLA JR B 5 4 10 14 4 2019 Burlington Chiefs OLA JR A 2 0 1 1 0 2019 Hamilton Bengals OLA JR B 9 8 25 33 25 Totals JUNIOR A 2 0 1 1 0 Totals JUNIOR B 22 13 37 50 31 Totals JUNIOR C 18 29 25 54 41

ISAAC ATENCIO NCBS leagues hand out a “Coaches Award” every season to a player on each team. The unique accolade was created to recognize players who had a positive impact to their team's success, chemistry, and character. Only one player in the CCBLL has been honored with that award in each of the league’s three seasons. That player is Isaac Atencio. A Jim Veltman-type player whose leadership and attitude away from the floor are as important to the team as his unselfish and game-changing abilities while the game clock is ticking. While many theorize that Team USA needs to develop more goalies or more high-end goal scorers, they also unquestionably need more Isaac Atencios too. Great player.

Boehm is sturdily built, not afraid to get his nose dirty but doesn't take a lot of unnecessary penalties. He can take faceoffs and, while he won't score much and or take the ball to the net often, he handles the ball well enough to clear the defensive zone and get the ball to his team's forwards.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2017 Kitchener-Waterloo Braves OLA JR A 10 0 0 0 10 2016 Guelph Regals OLA JR B 19 1 7 8 32 2017 Kitchener-Waterloo Braves OLA JR A 15 0 3 3 8 2018 Cobourg Kodiaks MSL SR A 1 0 1 1 0 2018 Paris RiverWolves ARENA LL 13 2 4 6 6 2018 Kitchener-Waterloo Braves OLA JR A 19 0 4 4 25 2019 Paris RiverWolves ARENA LL 13 1 5 6 11 2019 Kitchener-Waterloo Braves OLA JR A 18 0 3 3 8 2020 Paris RiverWolves ARENA LL 11 0 8 8 12 Totals SENIOR A 1 0 1 1 0 Totals ARENA LL 37 3 17 20 29 Totals JUNIOR A 62 0 10 10 51 Totals JUNIOR B 19 1 7 8 32   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2016 Guelph Regals OLA JR B 1 0 0 0 2 2017 Kitchener-Waterloo Braves OLA JR A 3 0 0 0 22 2017 Kitchener-Waterloo Braves OLA JR A 3 0 0 0 4 2018 Paris RiverWolves ARENA LL 3 0 1 1 0 2019 Paris RiverWolves ARENA LL 3 1 0 1 0 Totals ARENA LL 6 1 1 2 0 Totals JUNIOR A 6 0 0 0 26 Totals JUNIOR B 1 0 0 0 2

Drafted by the Brooklin LC in 4th Round 19th Overall in the 2020 MSL Draft 2019 Whitby Warriors OLA Jr A Won Silver Medal for Team Canada at 2016 U19 World Field Lacrosse Championships Won Silver Medal for CLAX at 2015 U19 World Lacrosse Challenge 2019 OLA Jr A 2nd Team All-Star Lacrosse Flash - TOP 2020 NLL DRAFT PROSPECTS: DEFENDERS Lacrosse Flash - NLL Draft Profile - Mathieu Boissonneault   IL Indoor 10/22/19 - Stamper's Musings: Early 2020 NLL Mock Draft, Plus Who to Watch for '21 & '22 13 Mathieu Boissonneault RD Whitby Warriors & Canisius The second-team Ontario Jr A all-star will have his detractors because he's only 5'7”. Boissonneault is sturdy, though, and plays at a consistently high level despite his lack of physical stature. He has scored 51 points over the last two summers with Whitby while focusing on defence first.   IL Indoor 06/30/20 - Stamper's Musings: 2020 Mock Draft 2.1, College Players Back in the Mix Other candidates Mathieu Boissonneault RD, Whitby Warriors Jr A & Canisius I apologize to Boissonneault for always mentioning his height in writeups. The reality, though, is that him being 5-7 is the first thing that jumps out at scouts and the main thing that some observers will base his prospect ranking on. The fact that he is a serious consideration for a first-round grade anyway shows just how good a player he is. Boissonneault has developed expertise at using angles, leverage and footwork to play solid defence and he's got quick feet and good enough hands to be effective in transition.   Playing from Behind - #12 Overall - @MBois_45 @SaskRushLAX Keenan gets another one of his guys from @Whitby_Warriors. He will have Boissonneault ranked higher than any other GM. One of the best “ball team” players in @OJALL_Official the last few years and made Whitby as a 16 yr-old (123g gp).   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 11-20 20 Mathieu Boissonneault, RD, Whitby Warriors Jr A & Canisius With almost half of the top 20 of my prospects list consisting of defenders, Boissonneault is at the bottom of the group. It is a tightly bunched group of prospects, though, and any given evaluator could have him higher than this. Boissonneault has always had to overcome his size, standing at just 5-7, but it really hasn't stood in his way. I've been watching Boissonneault play since he was in his mid-teens and attending the All-Canada Games recruiting tournament; I'm not sure I've ever seen an opponent that was too big or strong for him to compete with. He's exceptionally strong, he's quick, and he's skilled enough to have scored 51 points in his final two seasons of junior. It would have been nice for him to get a chance this summer to line up against men and prove he can handle that step up in competition, but I have little doubt about his ability to hold his own.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 19 Rochester (from Vancouver) Mathieu Boissonneault, RD, Whitby Warriors/BLC & Canisius Rochester gave up more goals than any team in the league last year, so adding defense is critical. I think they could really use another lefty forward as well but one among Ty Thompson, Sam Firth and Larson Sundown should be available when the the Knighthawks pick again at 25. The supply of defenders at Boissonneault's caliber who fit well with Rochester is getting thinner. + Smart, skilled and tenacious. - Size. At 5-7 or less, Boissonneault will always have to overcome doubts about his ability to complete against bigger men, although it's never stopped him from excelling at any level he's played so far.

Not a bad career for a smaller defender, winning an NLL championship and gold medal at the world championships.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2015 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 17 1 3 4 16 2016 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 18 2 8 10 10 2017 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 20 0 10 10 8 2018 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 20 14 14 28 0 2019 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 20 5 18 23 0 Totals JUNIOR A 95 22 53 75 42   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2015 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 10 1 3 4 2 2016 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 4 0 1 1 2 2017 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 6 0 4 4 0 2018 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 3 1 3 4 0 2019 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 5 1 1 2 2 Totals JUNIOR A 28 3 12 15 6

2020 Kitchener-Waterloo Braves OLA Jr A 2018 CUFLA West Division Honarable Mention   IL Indoor 04/27/20 - Stamper's Musings: Imagining the 2020 NLL Draft Without College Players 8 Georgia Swarm Andrew Borgatti, RD, Kitchener-Waterloo Braves Borgatti has been reliable both in playing a steady defensive game and in missing only one game in four full Jr A seasons between Brampton and KW.   Playing from Behind - #25 Overall - @AndyBorgatti @RocKnighthawks Another youthful addition to the KHawks defence. Rochester’s staff has familiarity with him from his time with @BramptonJrA. My player comparison for Borgatti would be Matthew Bennett.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 31-40 39 Andrew Borgatti, RD, Kitchener-Waterloo Braves & Wilfred Laurier Borgatti is reliable and intelligent. He suited up for 79 of 80 possible regular season games in his Jr A career and helped Brampton to the Minto Cup finals in 2018 before being traded to KW for the summer of 2019, where he scored a career-high 6 goals.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 36 New York (Compensatory pick, from San Diego—Garrett Billings) Andrew Borgatti, RD, Kitchener-Waterloo Braves & Wilfred Laurier New York gets another righty defender to try to stabilize their back end, and stability is one of Borgatti's key calling cards. He's steady and consistent with sufficient stick skills to help clear the zone. + Reliable, smart defense. - Could be bigger, but he's solid. Comp Mitch Belisle.

Round 4 Pick 64
Manhattan University	Kelson Borisenko X-F-R 04/29/97 5-10 170 Winnipeg, MB Manhattan
Player Profile: Kelson Borisenko Will return to Manhattan for 2021 after 2020 season cancelled to COVID-19 Lacrosse Flash - NLL Draft Profile - Kelson Borisenko   IL Indoor 10/17/18 - Stamper's Musings: Early Mock Draft for 2019, Plus Really Early Contenders for 2020 & 2021 Looking Ahead to 2020 If you're looking for a sleeper for 2020, keep an eye of the progress of Kelson Borisenko. The midsized righty forward graduated this year from the Manitoba Blizzard Jr B team in Winnipeg. He's a junior at Manhattan College in the Bronx. It's basically impossible to project a player's NLL potential from Rocky Mountain Jr Lacrosse League Jr B stats. I've had the chance to watch Borisenko at the last two Founders Cups, though, and he has an intriguing blend of athleticism and skill. He is fearless going inside and does spectacular things while flying through the air when he drives the net. I'm curious to see what Borisenko does in senior lacrosse wherever he winds up for the next couple of summers. He may wind up being a late round pick or not selected at all in two years. On the other hand, there's just something about him that makes me think he could climb up from under the radar.   IL Indoor 10/22/19 - Stamper's Musings: Early 2020 NLL Mock Draft, Plus Who to Watch for '21 & '22 Kelson Borisenko RT/F Manitoba Blizzard & Manhattan Borisenko was often spectacular for the Blizzard playing primarily offence. He did go out the back door sometimes and played close defence for Manhattan, and Borisenko understands that there are more opportunities for D/tranny players on rosters than there are forwards. He will likely play Sr A next summer, meaning heading to either BC or Ontario. If he can reprise some of the acrobatic plays he pulled off with Manitoba, he could catch some eyes and provide himself a chance to become the rare Manitoban to earn a crack at the NLL (we're looking at you, Halifax Thunderbirds Luc Magnan).   IL Indoor 08/24/20 - Stamper's Musings: Who Are the Top NLL Prospects Actually Available to Play This Year? Kelson Borisenko, RF/T, Manitoba Blizzard & Manhattan Remember the comment above about how many players could have benefited from playing Canadian lacrosse this summer? Borisenko may be at the top of that list. He's a dynamic athlete with great stick skills and work ethic. We just can't know how all that will translate to the pros because he has virtually no experience at Jr A or senior (he played 9 games with Jr A Burlington Chiefs as an 18-year old). Borisenko was exploring senior options for this summer when the season got shut down; I believe he would have showed well, boosting his draft stock. One note about why Borisenko didn't play Jr A: he was part of a strong cohort with the Manitoba Blizzard and the group was committed to sticking together and going as far as they could representing their home province. Luc Magnan is the standard bearer for Manitobans in the NLL, but Borisenko is talented enough to share that load with Magnan. I find it hard to picture a team taking him in the first round unless it's Georgia because their multiple picks give them so many options to try out. Seven teams have multiple selections in the 20-pick second round (there are seven! compensatory picks as the end of the round); I think one of them will take a swing at the hidden gem of this draft.   Playing from Behind - #27 Overall - @KelsonB27 @HFXThunderbirds Even though the @MBLacrosse product played offense in Jr, I see him playing out the back door at the next level. The T-Birds became the unanimous favourite team for all Manitoba lacrosse with this pick.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 21-30 24 Kelson Borisenko, RF/T, Manitoba Blizzard & Manhattan I get the feeling that I'm in the minority in ranking Borisenko this high, although I know that he has caught the attention of some NLL talent evaluators. Borisenko is a dynamic athlete with great stick skills and work ethic. We just can't know how all that will translate to the pros because he has virtually no experience at Jr A or senior (he played 9 games with the Jr A Burlington Chiefs as an 18-year old). One note about why Borisenko didn't play Jr A: while teams were interested in bringing him in, he was part of a strong cohort with the Manitoba Blizzard and the group was committed to sticking together and going as far as they could representing their home province. That, for me, allays some of the concerns about why someone didn't play at the highest level possible. A summer of senior lacrosse would have gone a long way to showing how Borisenko would fare against men and improved competition. He can play effectively at either end of the floor: he scored 106 points in one Jr B season and actually topped that points per game average in his final season, but was a long pole defender at Manhattan. That may make Borisenko a strong candidate to start his pro career going out the back door then eventually move to offence, as so many players do.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 23 Buffalo (from Philadelphia) Kelson Borisenko, RF/T, Manitoba Blizzard & Manhattan Borisenko is fast, skilled and wiry strong. He could step into an offensive role right away and fit right in with the speed with which Dhane Smith, Josh Byrne and Chase Fraser play. His excellence as a longpole for Manhattan demonstrates his versatility and he's willing and eager to embrace whatever role a team wants him to play. The risk/reward ratio could prove to be very beneficial in the long term for the team who takes and develops Borisenko. + Excellent athlete who can play either end. - No experience above Jr B and hasn't played box for a couple of years. Comp Chase Fraser. Talented forward who has the ability to play defense.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2013 Manitoba Gryphons RMLL JR B 5 1 4 5 0 2014 Manitoba Blizzard RMLL JR B 20 21 28 49 14 2015 Burlington Chiefs OLA JR A 9 2 3 5 12 2015 Manitoba Blizzard RMLL JR B 11 13 13 26 43 2016 Manitoba Blizzard RMLL JR B 20 56 50 106 38 2017 Manitoba Blizzard RMLL JR B 13 36 29 65 61 2018 Manitoba Blizzard RMLL JR B 14 37 45 82 44 Totals JUNIOR A 9 2 3 5 12 Totals JUNIOR B 83 164 169 333 200   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2014 Manitoba Blizzard RMLL JR B 2 1 1 2 4 2015 Manitoba Blizzard RMLL JR B 15 14 19 33 47 2016 Manitoba Blizzard RMLL JR B 8 21 14 35 6 2017 Manitoba Blizzard RMLL JR B 14 38 42 80 24 2018 Manitoba Blizzard RMLL JR B 19 48 61 109 48 Totals JUNIOR B 58 122 137 259 129

He's physical, athletic and has a high lacrosse IQ. Bowering will be taken early in the WLA draft and could rise near the top of these rankings with a strong Sr A summer in 2020.   IL Indoor 06/30/20 - Stamper's Musings: 2020 Mock Draft 2.1, College Players Back in the Mix 5 Calgary Roughnecks Reid Bowering LD, Coquitlam Adanacs (Jr A) & Drexel Head coach Curt Malawsky is familiar with Bowering from the defender's Coquitlam Jr A days and knows that he could inject an immediate dose of high-level play into Calgary's back end.   Playing from Behind - #5 Overall - @ReidBowering14 @NLLRoughnecks Hard to imagine that the CGY staff will look at his NCAA production and inside-finishing ability and not try to find a way to get him involved in the offense. Nonetheless, Bowering is strong defender who doesn’t make many mistakes.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 1-10 ***4 Reid Bowering LD/T, Coquitlam Adanacs Jr A & Drexel Bowering has been the BCJALL's defender of the year three times and was named the top graduating player in 2019. Yet again, having a chance to see him play against men this summer as he graduated to the WLA would have really given us a chance to determine how his game translates to the levels above junior. There's not much question that he'll be good and it likely won't take long for him to fit in on the NLL stage. His leadership is lauded, leading many to the conclusion that he'll eventually be the captain for whatever team drafts him.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 4 San Diego Seals Reid Bowering, Coquitlam Adanacs Jr A & Drexel The Seals area of need is defense, and Bowering is a three-time BCJALL defender of the year; perfect match. If Vancouver were to take Bowering, then you have to figure San Diego GM Patrick Merrill would be more than happy to take a prototypical Orangeville player in Henrick. +Speed and skill combo platter make for great two-way play. -Not 6-5, 230 pounds. I know it's a repeat but some of these top guys really don't have a lot of weaknesses. Comp Early career Jeff Shattler. Remember when Shattler played out the back door?

The next year, the SWAT moved up to Jr A, and Boyenko barely missed a beat, posting a 55/60/115 line at the higher level in the Rocky Mountain League. In a brief stint with the Coquitlam Adanacs down the stretch of 2017, he scored 13 points in three games then added 15 in four playoff contests. Moving up to senior in '18, Boyenko showed flashes with 11 goals and 10 assists. His talent is clear, and he understands and is willing to accept the role his coaches ask of him.

Again, with a long list of talented lefty forwards available, Buck almost surely won't go in the first round. Consider that two of the lefties he played with for Orangeville at last year's Minto Cup are in this draft, and both Ty Thompson and Sam Firth played and scored more than Buck did in that tournament. Buck has done plenty to show that he has talent and drive, though. He made the all-tournament team at the 2018 World Junior championship. He also led the Toronto Monarchs and was sixth overall in the Arena Lacrosse League this spring, his second in the league. He's definitely small, and he's not going to overwhelm you with his athleticism, but he can play. Buck is a typical Orangeville player, combining talent with drive, grit and lacrosse IQ.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 21-30 27 Tanner Buck, LF, Orangeville Northmen Jr A Buck has done a lot of winning over the last few years. His run of championships started with a Founders Cup in 2017, followed by a gold medal at the 2018 World Juniors (at which he was named to the All World team), and culminated in a Minto Cup title in 2019. Unlike many of his draft class mates, Buck also got to play some high level lacrosse in 2020. He suited up with the Toronto Monarchs in the Arena League and wound up leading the team in scoring with 31 goals and 26 assists for 57 points in 12 games, placing him 6th overall in the league scoring race. Buck has great hands, excellent vision, a high lacrosse IQ and a knack for getting into the dirty areas to come away with loose balls, despite his lack of size. He will be well suited to stepping into a complementary role and doing whatever a team asks of him.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 30 Toronto (Compensatory pick—Brodie Merrill) Tanner Buck, LF, Orangeville Northmen Jr A and Toronto Monarchs The Orangeville connection is strong with the Rock, and Buck is no stranger to the Toronto Rock Athletic Centre, where he's playing in a pandemic-modified-rules league. That's also where he played home games with the Toronto Monarchs of the ALL, where he was sixth in the league in scoring in the 2020 season.

2019 Toronto Beaches OLA Jr A 2020 Whitby Steelhawks ALL 2019 CUFLA East Division All-Canadian Lacrosse Flash - TOP 2020 NLL DRAFT PROSPECTS: DEFENDERS Lacrosse Flash - NLL Draft Profile - Curtis Conley   IL Indoor 04/27/20 - Stamper's Musings: Imagining the 2020 NLL Draft Without College Players 1 New York Riptide Curtis Conley, RT, Toronto Beaches, Whitby Steelhawks and Trent University Conley is strong, athletic and aggressive. He plays a tough but smart game and has solid stick skills. He's a standout for Trent in CUFLA and he comes with the benefit of against men for a couple of seasons in the Arena Lacrosse League. Conley would be a good addition to an NLL team's training camp and could develop into a productive pro player. He is not, however, Jeff Teat. I am a fan of Conley's game and if I were an NLL GM I would definitely have him on the list of players I'd be interested in drafting this fall, but if he were to wind up being the first overall pick in 2020, it would have to be considered a major disappointment for the Riptide.   IL Indoor 08/24/20 - Stamper's Musings: Who Are the Top NLL Prospects Actually Available to Play This Year? Curtis Conley, RT, Toronto Beaches, Whitby Steelhawks and Trent Back in April, before the NLL had decided how they would handle players going back to school next year in this year's draft, I wrote a first-round mock consisting only of players who couldn't be at NCAA schools next spring. Conley sat at the top of that mock. He clearly falls from that perch with Jeff Teat et al back in the draft fold, but don't sleep on the sturdy and athletic defender. Conley does focus primarily on his own end, but he's also added 8 goals and 8 assists in 24 games over three Arena Lacrosse League seasons. That experience playing against men provides ample evidence that he's ready to step up to a role in pro lacrosse. The way that he's improved steadily both with the Whitby Steelhawks and as one of the best defenders in the Canadian University Field Lacrosse Association suggests that that role will grow substantially as he adapts to the NLL. Conley fits somewhere in the teens in my Top 5 prospects, giving him a longshot chance at cracking the first round but more likely a solid second-round pick.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 11-20 19 Curtis Conley, RT, Toronto Beaches, Whitby Steelhawks and Trent University Back in April, before the NLL had decided how they would handle players going back to school next year in this year's draft, I wrote a first-round mock consisting only of players who couldn't be at NCAA schools next spring.

Whitby Warriors	Tanner Cook X-F-L 05/27/98 6-3 205 Courtice, ON North Carolina
Will return to North Carolina in 2021 after 2020 season cancelled due to COVID-19< 2019 Whitby Warriors OLA Jr A Won silver medal for Team Canada at 2016 U19 World Field Lacrosse Championships Lacrosse Flash - 2020 NLL DRAFT TOP PROSPECTS: FORWARDS Lacrosse Flash - NLL Draft Profile - Tanner Cook NLL DRAFT PROSPECTS – TANNER COOK   IL Indoor 10/22/19 - Stamper's Musings: Early 2020 NLL Mock Draft, Plus Who to Watch for '21 & '22 5 Tanner Cook LF Whitby Warriors & North Carolina This isn't a deep draft, and this is about where the drop off begins from the elite prospects. Still, Cook is a big, strong and talented lefty forward and those are always in demand. How ready he is for pro lacrosse should become more apparent when he suits up for Brooklin Lacrosse Club in MSL next summer. With nine players taken in this year's draft—including four first-rounders and seven within the first three rounds—Brooklin is an exciting young club that should provide Cook a good chance for growth and development in 2020.   IL Indoor 06/30/20 - Stamper's Musings: 2020 Mock Draft 2.1, College Players Back in the Mix 7 Philadelphia Wings Tanner Cook LF, Whitby Warriors Jr A & North Carolina A year of senior lacrosse would have been important for Cook to show how he will adapt to playing against men (that is a theme that could be repeated for pretty much every player after the top five). He is promising and coming off a strong junior career including '17 and '18 seasons in which he produced goal/assist/point lines of 35/37/72 and 46/28/74, respectively. Without that senior experience, Cook will be a bit more of a projection than if scouts had the chance to see him stepping into another level. Still, he's talented and he won't get pushed around, and Cook definitely has the potential to be a solid NLL contributor.   Playing from Behind - #7 Overall - Tanner Cook @SaskRushLAX Cook being available at 7 is a dream scenario for Derek Keenan and the Rush. The big bodied forward gives Sask some much needed 5v5 scoring.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 1-10 ***6 Tanner Cook LF, Whitby Warriors Jr A & North Carolina Size, grit, skill and a left-handed shot. That combination is always in demand and it will make someone very excited to get to draft Tanner Cook. The Courtice native also has the benefit of having come up through Whitby lacrosse, which has been one of those iconic programs that teaches young players how to play and respect the game. That includes the minor system and the Clarington Green Gaels Jr B club, with whom Cook spent a season and which is an excellent development team. Cook has put up good numbers, posting back-to-back seasons of 72 points (35G, 37A) and 74 points (46, 28). Whenever people who have coached him or observed him closely talk about him, though, their rave reviews go beyond his statistics; Cook is lauded for doing the hard work to help his team and for his willingness to play whatever role is needed at a given time. That kind of attitude goes a long way for a young player entering the NLL. One note, in case anyone is concerned that he may take too many penalties: when he accumulated 91 minutes in 2018, 63 of those came from just two games; for the most part he is disciplined, just taking the occasional penalties you'd expect from a rugged forward who isn't afraid to get his nose dirty. He won't be a liability on that front.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 7 Saskatchewan Rush (from Philadelphia) Tanner Cook, LF, Whitby Warriors Jr A & North Carolina Saskatchewan will be thrilled if Cook falls to them. As with Georgia, this is a good year to need a lefty because there is a plethora of them. Two things really make Cook the top option for the Rush: GM Derek Keenan's familiarity with everything he brings to a team that doesn't show up on the scoreboard from their shared Whitby Warriors background, and the fact that he is going back to school. Getting a player who isn't available to come this year is actually a boon for Saskatchewan. It's almost the equivalent of acquiring an extra first-round pick for next year, which is when the Rush really need players. Even with the trade of Connor Robinson (for an actual first-round pick next year), Saskatchewan is doing pretty well with Mark Matthews, Ryan Keenan and Jeff Shattler on the left side. But Shattler has been open about the fact that he's nearing the end of his playing career and transitioning to coaching. So Cook could come in next year and either bide his time behind Shattler or be the fourth lefty if they opt to go strong left more often. Also, it removes one from the list of players they'll need to protect in the Fort Worth expansion draft next summer. Seems pretty ideal for Saskatchewan. + Size, skill and toughness. - No senior experience to see how his game will adjust playing against men. Comp Duane Jacobs. Dewey was a tough and talented player who didn't fight a lot, but he didn't hesitate to drop the mitts when the situation called for it.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2015 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 1 0 2 2 0 2015 Clarington Green Gaels OLA JR B 18 13 24 37 47 2016 Brooklin Redmen MSL SR A 1 0 0 0 0 2016 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 18 16 20 36 10 2017 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 17 35 37 72 38 2018 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 18 46 28 74 91 2019 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 13 24 22 46 42 Totals SENIOR A 1 0 0 0 0 Totals JUNIOR A 77 121 109 230 181 Totals JUNIOR B 18 13 24 37 47   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2015 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 1 0 0 0 0 2015 Clarington Green Gaels OLA JR B 8 10 8 18 4 2016 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 4 5 6 11 0 2017 Brooklin Redmen MSL SR A 1 1 2 3 0 2017 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 6 11 13 24 4 2018 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 3 6 3 9 16 2019 Whitby Warriors OLA JR A 5 5 6 11 32 Totals SENIOR A 1 1 2 3 0 Totals JUNIOR A 19 27 28 55 52 Totals JUNIOR B 8 10 8 18 4

There are other runners who will contenders to go in the top half of the draft. Among them are Delta Islanders lefty transition player Brendan Szabo, lefty forward Adam Kitchen from the Jr B Clarington Green Gaels, Barrie Lakeshores lefty tranny Oriale Mandeville, and Hunter Aggus, a righty transition who played for the Hamilton Bengals Jr B and the Paris RiverWolves in the ALL. Bryan Costabile is also an intriguing prospect; with no box experience but a dynamic game that could translate, the Notre Dame grad played in the PLL this summer so he has moved on from college   Playing from Behind - #13 Overall - @bryan_costabile @GeorgiaSwarmLAX When there’s a @NDlacrosse alum getting NLL looks, the question shouldn’t be “who will pick him?”, rather “when will Georgia pick him?” Could also see this pick being Del Zotto/Tait/Powless if they want instant front-door help.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 31-40 33 Bryan Costabile, RT/F, PLL Atlas and Notre Dame There is talk that Georgia will take Costabile with the 13th pick of the first round. That arises largely because folks assume that Swarm owner and noted Fighting Irish alumnus John Arlotta (after whom the stadium in which Notre Dame plays is named) will pick any good player coming out of the school. That's a bit oversimplified, but there is some logic to the idea, given that Georgia has four first-round picks and can afford to take a bit of a flier on an athlete who hasn't played box lacrosse. The downside is that Costabile has a very good job that could make it difficult for him to play in the NLL, and that as a rising PLL star he will clearly prioritize that league over playing indoors. The upside, though, could be high. Costabile is talented, outrageously athletic, and plays a fast, gritty game that looks like it should translate well to box. He sits at 33 in the Top 50 because it's not certain he even wants to play in the NLL, so taking him may turn out to be a wasted pick. But if he decides to devote himself to excelling indoors, his ceiling could be very high, and he could merit a ranking well above 33 in a retrospective look at the players from this draft.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 34 Philadelphia (Compensatory pick, from Saskatchewan—Scott Campbell) Bryan Costabile, RT, PLL Atlas and Notre Dame Costabile is worth a swing for the fences and GM Paul Day has shown he's not afraid to give field players a shot. He's an amazing athlete and took to a defensive role in the PLL after a prolific scoring career in college field lacrosse. If he's excited to play and can structure it around his work schedule, you just never know...he could turn into something special. + Tremendous athleticism. - No box lacrosse experience.

Patrick Dodds, RF, Victoria Shamrocks Jr A Dodds is a fairly recent addition to the draft list, having renounced his NCAA eligibility around when he turned 19 in July. He is a big-body forward with skill and was the BCJALL rookie of the year in 2019 after leading all first-year players with 78 points a year after putting up 94 in Jr B. Dodds also has good genes as the son of Will Dodds, a former high-level rower who went on to coach for Canada's national junior rowing team. Patrick had a good Minto Cup with the Shamrocks last year; his highlight video from that tournament displays his grit, lacrosse IQ and creativity. I see Dodds as a second-rounder, partly because most NLL teams are already so well-stocked with righty forwards, but I wouldn't be stunned if he snuck into the end of the first round.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 11-20 17 Patrick Dodds, RF, Victoria Shamrocks Jr A Dodds is a little tricky to assess relative to the rest of the top prospects because he has only one year of Jr A under his belt. He made the most of that year, though, leading all BCJALL rookies with 78 points and having an excellent Minto Cup, helping the Shamrocks to reach the final. He brings a nice blend of size, skill, grit and creativity. There is a bit of an anomaly in this year's draft: as usual, most teams are already pretty well-stocked on the right side of the offence, which tends to depress the value of righties and lead to lefties or defenders leapfrogging them in the draft. However, there isn't a wealth of high-calibre righties in this draft, so teams that do need one may actually wind up taking one earlier than they normally would. That makes it interesting to see where Dodds and Kelson Borisenko (my No. 24 prospect, included in yesterday's instalment of the Top 50) will be drafted. Dodds in particular could wind up going higher than this ranking. An example could be if Georgia, who traded Zed Williams and hasn't yet signed Randy Staats, feels compelled to use one of their four first-rounders on a righty and isn't convinced that Bryan Costabile is both available and prepared to play at an NLL level right away.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 18 New England Black Wolves (from Rochester) Patrick Dodds, RF, Victoria Shamrocks Jr A New England added some potential righty forwards in trade or free agency, but Joe Resetarits is the only RF on their roster who had more than 4 points in the NLL last year. I like Dodds' chances of being immediately ready for a bigger role than any of the other candidates and I think he do more to help the players around him be better, as well. + Blend of size, skill and grit. - Lack of high-level experience, with only one season of Jr A. Comp Drew Westervelt. The Maryland native could go through you or around you. He put up seven straight seasons with 26 or more goals.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2018 Victoria Shamrocks BCLA JR B 18 40 54 94 25 2019 Victoria Shamrocks BCLA JR A 20 36 42 78 4 Totals JUNIOR A 20 36 42 78 4 Totals JUNIOR B 18 40 54 94 25   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2018 Victoria Shamrocks BCLA JR B 7 11 18 29 27 2019 Victoria Shamrocks BCLA JR A 16 20 21 41 2 Totals JUNIOR A 16 20 21 41 2 Totals JUNIOR B 7 11 18 29 27

2020 Orangeville Northmen OLA Jr A 2020 Nepean Knights OLA Jr B Won 2019 Minto Cup with Orangeville Northmen 2018 OLA Jr B East Most Valuable Player YouTube - Sam Firth Box Lacrosse Highlights Lacrosse Flash - 2020 NLL DRAFT TOP PROSPECTS: FORWARDS Lacrosse Flash - NLL Draft Profile - Sam Firth   IL Indoor 04/27/20 - Stamper's Musings: Imagining the 2020 NLL Draft Without College Players 2 Rochester Knighthawks Sam Firth, LF, Nepean Knights Jr B and Bishops Firth has posted 230 points including back to back 50-goal seasons over the last two summers with Nepean. He also played half a dozen games with the Orangeville Northmen over those two seasons; he helped the Northmen, put up 15 points in the six games but clearly his scoring didn't translate at nearly the same pace as in Jr B. Firth matched that 15 points in the six games of the Minto Cup last summer as he helped them to win the national championship. While Firth is a talented player, it isn't demeaning him to say that the dropoff from Teat to Firth as the top-rated lefty forward is substantial.   IL Indoor 08/24/20 - Stamper's Musings: Who Are the Top NLL Prospects Actually Available to Play This Year? Sam Firth, LF, Nepean Knights Jr B and Bishops Firth is another CUFLA star finishing his 21-year-old season of junior lacrosse this summer. Like Ty Thompson, Firth joined the Orangeville Northmen for a handful of regular season games and for the Minto Cup. Firth's huge Jr B scoring didn't translate to as much success with the Northmen as Thompson's did; Firth also isn't as big or as athletic as Thompson. Firth is, however, highly skilled, and highly skilled lefties are always in demand. Selecting him would demand a fairly substantial projection on a team's part. He could go in the second round. If you're shaking your head and saying Firth doesn't feel like a second-rounder, bear in mind this year there are 36 picks between the first two rounds while just three years ago, 36th overall was solidly into the fourth round. Given that five of the nine players taken in that 2017 fourth round are still playing in the league, guys taken at this stage have a legit chance to stick around and earn playing time.   Playing from Behind - #24 Overall - Sam Firth @MammothLax Another Ottawa area prospect gets picked up (more later!). The @officialNKJRB product showed well with the @JrANorthmen in the Ontario finals/Minto Cup.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 21-30 21 Sam Firth, LF, Nepean Knights Jr B and Bishops Firth posted filthy numbers in Jr B, totalling 100 goals and and 230 points over his final two seasons with Nepean. He also joined the Orangeville Northmen as an affiliated player and helped them to win the 2019 Minto Cup. Firth isn't as big as teammate Ty Thompson and he didn't score at the same pace as Thompson with Orangeville. Firth did, however, outscore Thompson by 46 goals and 47 points over their last two seasons with the Knights. With his sturdy frame and slick hands, there are NLL GMs who think he has at least as bright a future in the NLL as Thompson does. Don't be surprised if Firth winds up being selected even earlier than this high ranking for a primarily Jr B player suggests he might.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 25 Rochester (from Buffalo) Sam Firth, LF, Nepean Knights Jr B/Orangeville Northmen Jr A and Bishops Taking Boissonneault earlier looks like a good decision with Firth still being available. The Knighthawks may even have preferred Firth to Thompson, who went a few picks ago in this mock; I'm not sure if Rochester was one of them, but some teams definitely did. Firth is sneaky quick, has great hands and a nose for the net. + Elite scoring ability. - Limited experience at the Jr A level. Comp Jean-Luc Chetner. You may not think of Chetner as a big scorer because he is still establishing himself in the NLL and he has been playing a fair bit of transition both in the pros and the WLA. He was the top scorer at the first ever European Box Lacrosse championships in Finland in 2017 as he led Israel to the gold medal.

Coquitlam Adanacs	Dylan Foulds X-F-R 04/28/97 6-0 180 Port Coquitlam, BC Penn State
Will return to Penn State in 2021 after 2020 season cancelled due to COVID-19 Won 2018 Minto Cup with Coquitlam Adanacs Poco Jr Saints - 2020 @NLL Draft Prospect - Dylan Foulds   Playing from Behind - #22 Overall - Dylan Foulds @MammothLax The @JuniorAdanacs connection with the COL coaching staff is there. And with their current offensive situation, the Mammoth can afford to stash the talented righty as he plays a 5th year at @PennStateMLAX.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 31-40 ***34 Dylan Foulds RF, Port Coquitlam Saints and Penn State The fact that Foulds is sandwiched between a pair of NCAA All-Americans who don't have box experience, including Penn State teammate Grant Ament, highlights the challenges of creating this ranking. Foulds hasn't had nearly the career that Ament and Bryan Costabile had in college, but he does have a 96-point 2018 BCJALL season to his credit. One thing to keep an eye on when players have big production in Jr A is whether they are having success against the top teams as well as the bottom ones. Foulds averaged 4.2 points per game in his 10 games against top-four teams in 2018 and 6.8 against bottom-four teams. That means he scored 62% more points per game against the weaker teams than the stronger ones. It's not unusual to score more against lower-ranked teams, and it's encouraging that Foulds was still putting up a solid average against New Westminster, Victoria and Coquitlam (he was traded to the Adanacs for the final three games of the season but didn't face his former Port Coquitlam teammates). In the playoffs, his scoring average was 3.1 ppg as he led the team in total points, and he was third on the Adanacs in scoring as they won the Minto cup. It's a small sample size but does point to him being able to remain productive against quality competition.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 32 Calgary (Compensatory pick—Riley Loewen) Dylan Foulds, RF, Port Coquitlam Saints and Penn State Foulds put up nearly half of his 199 Jr A points in his final season of 2018, when he was a first team all-star. He would be worth a look for the Roughnecks, although they may also want to consider Calgary native Brett McIntyre, who posted back-to-back seasons with at least 58 goals and 103 points in the RMLL. + Playmaking ability. - Hasn't played box since 2018.

Justin Geddie, G, Nanaimo Jr A Geddie actually played for Israel at the 2019 World Juniors and put on a largely impressive performance as he led them to overtime of the bronze medal game against the United States. At 6'4” and 220+ lbs, Geddie tends toward the blocker style but he's agile enough to remain effective with the extra six inches of net he had to cover for Israel. He's just 19 this year, so Geddie still has time to develop, but his rookie-of-the-year campaign in the BCJALL displayed his potential to move up to the pro level at some point. He's probably the top goalie prospect coming out of BC this year.   IL Indoor 09/11/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 41-50 43 Justin Geddie, G, Nanaimo Jr A In his BCJALL rookie-of-the-year campaign in 2019, Geddie leapfrogged the West Coast goalie prospects and is generally considered the top pro candidate coming out of BC this year. He's big and plays a blocking style. The switch to the larger nets and smaller sticks in the pros is always a major challenge. While Geddie hasn't had much of a chance to play with those parameters, he was in the big nets for the '19 World Junior (representing Israel). and he showed that he has the agility to adjust. The adjustment to the NLL is a much larger one, of course, and like most young goalies Geddie will probably take a while to develop at the highest level. Analysts like his chances to get there eventually, though.   Regular Season Year Team League GP W L T OTL MIN GAA GA SV SV% 2018 Nanaimo Timbermen BCLA JR A 2 0 1 0 0 60:00 15.00 15 44 .746 2018 Nanaimo Timbermen BCLA JR B 17 3 5 0 1 555:18 10.59 98 441 .818 2019 Nanaimo Timbermen BCLA JR A 20 12 3 0 0 867:39 8.71 126 561 .817 2019 Israel WJLC 2 0 2 0 0 113:39 12.14 23 88 .793   Playoffs Year Team League GP W L T OTL MIN GAA GA SV SV% 2019 Nanaimo Timbermen BCLA JR A 6 2 4 0 0 329:41 8.37 46 240 .839 2019 Israel WJLC 3 1 1 0 1 174:23 12.04 35 134 .793

Harris got to play behind some excellent defenders with Canada at the 2018 World Juniors, though, and showed how effective his athleticism can be. Stylistically and build-wise, Harris is more Dallas Eliuk than Nick rose, but Harris does have some of Rose's sense for angles. Harris is one of a group of half a dozen goalies in this draft who have shown some promise but don't appear prepared for an NLL shot yet. That's not a huge knock on them; goalies generally take longer to develop to the point where they're ready for the pro game, so someone like Harris, Briley Miller or Dustin Hill could still become a solid NLLer down the road. But in a normal draft, none of them would be considered the rare goaltender worth spending a first-round pick on (Dillon Ward and Evan Kirk are the only goalies to have been taken in the first round in the past decade).   IL Indoor 08/24/20 - Stamper's Musings: Who Are the Top NLL Prospects Actually Available to Play This Year? Brody Harris, G, Delta Islanders Jr A Harris was with the cellar-dwelling Islanders last summer, but he got a chance to show how good he can be with Canada at the 2018 World Juniors and the 2019 EBox. At the former, he was the starter in the gold medal game (ahead of Hruska) and stopped 85.5% of the shots he faced from a talented Iroquois team to help the red and white earn the gold medal to earn tournament all-star goalie honours in the process. He's smaller and athletic, a style which can create a gradual adaptation process to the pro game, but his success playing in the bigger nets with smaller sticks at World Juniors and EBox show that he is already taking strides along that path.   IL Indoor 09/11/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 41-50 46 Brodie Harris, G, Delta Islanders Jr A Harris was with the cellar-dwelling Islanders last summer, but he got a chance to show how good he can be with Canada at the 2018 World Juniors and the 2019 EBox.

Wyatt Haux, RT, Saskatchewan SWAT Jr A Much like Ogilvie, Haux played diverse roles for the SWAT and coach Kyle Wongstedt last summer. He is primarily a defender, where he uses his size and naturally nasty on-floor disposition to make life difficult for opposing offences. The SWAT were lacking some size and grit on offence in 2019, so Haux would often run out the front door as a willing and eager pick setter and space opener. He's got pretty good hands, too, although I would tend to consider him a defender who can join the rush at times rather than a transition player. It's generally hard to project how RMLL players will translate to the pros because they just don't have the luxury of as much or as high-calibre competition as their Ontario and BC counterparts. You don't have to search far, though, to see that the prairies are producing players who are ready for the NLL. Just go back to last year, when Colorado took Brett Craig 26th and Dylan Kinnear 39th and both played substantial roles as rookies. Haux, along with Harrison Matsuoka (returning to Stony Brook but a possible first-rounder this year), are poised to continue that tendency. Haux also took advantage of opportunities to broaden his horizons and get some experience beyond his regular league, playing for Canada at the 2018 and '19 World Juniors (the former as a hometown boy for the Saskatoon tournament) and at the '19 European Box Invitational in Prague. While it may sound like a broken record, I could see Haux being part of that 20-pick second round.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 31-40 38 Wyatt Haux, RT, Saskatchewan SWAT Jr A Haux played diverse roles for the SWAT and coach Kyle Wongstedt last summer.

Just go back to last year, when Colorado took Brett Craig 26th and Dylan Kinnear 39th and both played substantial roles as rookies. Haux, along with Harrison Matsuoka (returning to Stony Brook but a possible first-rounder this year), are poised to continue that tendency. Haux also took advantage of opportunities to broaden his horizons and get some experience beyond his regular league, playing for Canada at the 2018 and '19 World Juniors (the former as a hometown boy for the Saskatoon tournament) and at the '19 European Box Invitational in Prague.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 26 Saskatchewan (from Toronto via Colorado) Wyatt Haux, RT, Saskatchewan SWAT Jr A This is several spots above where I have Haux ranked in my Top 50 prospects, but the margins between prospects in the middle of the list are not enormous, and there is great value to selecting a local player. Haux would almost surely not make the team right away. He does, however, have substantial potential and there may be no better way for him to realize it than to be on the Rush practice squad, getting coached by their coaching staff and learning what it takes to be a pro from players like Kyle Rubisch and Chris Corbeil. It is notable for lacrosse in the province, by the way, that the Rush would probably need to pull the trigger on Haux here because he likely won't be available in later rounds, when the team usually selects at least one homegrown player. + Big and ornery on the floor. - Lack of high-level competition.

He was hoping to get some Sr A time, although the three-time defending Mann Cup champion Peterborough Lakers have a pretty tough lineup to crack. He'll be trying to follow the path that Axemen teammate Ty Logan travelled to the NLL. While Hendrycks isn't quite at Logan's level (and also didn't get a chance to showcase himself at the WILC in 2019, as Logan did with the Iroquois Nationals), Hendrycks is a big (6-1, 197 pounds), solid, fast and athletic defender with some transition skills.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2014 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 11 0 4 4 8 2015 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 16 5 4 9 19 2016 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 11 7 4 11 36 2017 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 18 4 10 14 16 2018 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 6 0 1 1 0 2018 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 18 6 10 16 29 2019 Capital Region Axemen QSLL SR B 10 1 7 8 8 2020 Peterborough Timbermen ARENA LL 2 0 0 0 0 Totals ARENA LL 2 0 0 0 0 Totals SENIOR B 10 1 7 8 8 Totals JUNIOR A 6 0 1 1 0 Totals JUNIOR B 74 22 32 54 108   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2014 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 2 0 2 2 0 2015 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 1 0 1 1 0 2018 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 1 0 0 0 0 2019 Capital Region Axemen QSLL SR B 10 1 5 6 12 Totals SENIOR B 10 1 5 6 12 Totals JUNIOR B 4 0 3 3 0

Another year of senior experience next summer should leave him well-prepared to be ready for a significant role in the pro game from day one. He was the first overall pick, by Cobourg, in the 2019 MSL draft but headed west for the summer and played 17 games for New West, putting up 6 goals and 8 assists for 14 points while accumulating 25 penalty minutes.   IL Indoor 06/30/20 - Stamper's Musings: 2020 Mock Draft 2.1, College Players Back in the Mix 2 Rochester Knighthawks Jeff Henrick LD, New Westminster Salmonbellies & Ohio State The Knighthawks could seriously consider Ryan Smith here. Ultimately, Rochester set itself up fairly well on offence in the expansion draft and its first entry draft last year, but it needs more high-quality depth on defence. Henrick may immediately challenge last year's second overall pick, Ryland Rees, for the team's top defender award that Rees won this year.   Playing from Behind - #4 Overall - Jeff Henrick @SealsLax San Diego gets a much needed spark in transition. Henrick played a midfielder-type role for the @JrANorthmen and is an immediate plug-and-play defender with a high lacrosse IQ.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 1-10 ***3 Jeff Henrick RD/T, New Westminster Salmonbellies & Ohio State I have waffled constantly between Henrick and Bowering for this spot. Bowering has a little more jump in his transition game, which leads some evaluators to give him the edge. Henrick is probably a bit better as a pure defender while he's also very effective in transition. I don't actually think you could make a bad decision if you had to choose to select one or the other. Ultimately, having a strong rookie season of Sr A lacrosse on his resume may have given him the slight edge when I had to finally stop flip-flopping and send in my list. Henrick is a quintessential Orangeville player, and that means a lot (of course, Bowering is from Coquitlam, another excellent program consistently producing top-quality players who play the game the right way).   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 3 Vancouver Warriors Jeff Henrick, RD, New Westminster Salmonbellies and Ohio State There is a boatload of speculation that Vancouver will take one of the top West Coast natives—Reid Bowering or Tre Leclaire—but Henrick played for GM Dan Richardson in New West and did plenty to impress the Warriors brass. +Tough but smart, physical defense. -Not 6-5, 230 pounds.

While Smith was one of the toughest defenders in the NLL, Hill's game is based more on speed. He uses his quickness, footwork and intelligence to play a pretty solid defensive game and displays a knack for knocking down passes. When he gets into open space, there aren't many players who'll catch him and he has good enough stick skills to contribute in transition or even stay up and play some effective offensive shifts. Hill averaged 2-plus points per game in his last two Jr B seasons and maintained a point-per-game-plus pace in two years of Jr A.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 31 Colorado (Compensatory pick—Cory Vitarelli) Kevin Owen Hill, LT, Six Nations Arrows and Syracuse Hill plays pretty good defense but will need to work on improving it to carve out an NLL career. Brad Self should be able to relate; he was a big-time scorer in junior but had to work hard on the defensive side of his game as he shifted to a transition role in senior and the pros. Hill's effortless-looking strides and slick hands are a pleasure to watch on a lacrosse floor. + Speed, stick skills and lacrosse IQ. - Undersized. Comp Brad Self.

Hruska (his last name means "pear" in Czech, by the way) was the RMLL rookie of the year and a second-team all-star as a 17-year-old in 2017. Has boatloads of potential but, like most young goalies, is still working on developing greater consistency. A definite candidate to be a long-term NLL franchise goalie.   IL Indoor 04/27/20 - Stamper's Musings: Imagining the 2020 NLL Draft Without College Players One other goalie could land well up on this list if he chooses to enter the draft. Laine Hruska—the pride of Warman, Saskatchewan—turns 19 in a few weeks and has been drawing attention since he was a 16-year-old. Hruska has played for Canada a the last two World Juniors and showed his commitment to improving when he moved to Ontario to stay with relatives and play in the Arena Lacrosse League this winter. His plan was to stick around for the summer season, which would have given him a great opportunity to face more and higher competition than he saw in the RMLL. That plan, of course, is threatened now, but Hruska impressed this winter with the Whitby Steelhawks, where he became the go-to and was probably the best of a strong goaltending trio.   IL Indoor 08/24/20 - Stamper's Musings: Who Are the Top NLL Prospects Actually Available to Play This Year? Laine Hruska, G, Saskatchewan SWAT and Whitby Steelhawks Canada's middle provinces are getting some love in this column; first Manitoba's Borisenko and now Hruska from Saskatchewan. Hruska probably isn't ready for a regular role playing in the NLL, but his immense potential has been on display since he burst onto the Rocky Mountain Lacrosse League scene as a 16-year-old. Now 19, Hruska is coming off a solid Arena League season where he split time with Lukas Coote (recently signed by Georgia) and won five of the six games he played. He was going to play with the Minto Cup host St. Catharines Athletics this summer in Ontario Jr A, so he would have enjoyed the distinction of going to the Minto with three different teams (he was previously picked up by the Calgary Mountaineers and Okotoks Raiders). Hruska would be a perfect choice to put on the practice squad and develop him; he may not be the next Christian Del Bianco, but he does have the potential to be a long-term NLL starter in a few years. If I were one of the teams that has a few second-round draft picks this year, I would seriously consider spending one of them on Hruska.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 21-30 26 Laine Hruska, G, Saskatchewan SWAT and Whitby Steelhawks The Saskatchewan Rush have been selecting graduating Sask juniors since the team moved to Saskatoon. It's a nice gesture for the players and it helps to develop the game in the province. Some had a better chance of actually making the NLL than others; I thought defender Mike Kaminski was a legitimate prospect (and he could still get there). This year marks a big step for Saskatchewan lacrosse, though. Neither Wyatt Haux nor Laine Hruska is likely to be picked by the Rush; the team doesn't have a second-round pick and neither player is likely to be available when the Rush go back on the clock at 43rd overall. The trend of Saskatchewan players earning real NLL looks should continue, too: keep your eyes out for the likes of defenders Keagan White and Quinn Ingalls in the next few years. Hruska was the RMLL rookie of the year in 2018 and first-team all-star goalie in 2019, then went and stayed with relatives in Ontario last winter so he could play in the Arena Lacrosse League with the Whitby Steelhawks, where he posted the best numbers in the league. He was going to spend the summer with the St. Catharines Athletics, where he would probably have gotten the chance to be a starter in the Minto Cup (St Kitts was to host) after twice being picked up by RMLL teams to provide backup depth for the tournament. That would have been a great experience, but he gain substantial value from getting to adjust to NLL size nets and goalie sticks in his two trips to the World Juniors for Canada and his season in the ALL.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 16 Philadelphia (Compensatory pick—Jordan Hall) Laine Hruska, G, Saskatchewan SWAT and Whitby Steelhawks This may seem like a bit of a stretch, but as Bob Chavez pointed out in his team needs story the Wings have already added Ben McIntosh and Corey Small up front plus Alex Crepinsek and Brock Sorensen in the back end. While Zach Higgins had a breakout season in net last year, backup Brandon Miller is 41 and wasn't 100% confident that he had another season in him last year. Philly could take the time to nurture Hruska, whether on the active roster or practice squad this year, and may just find themselves with a franchise goalie to smoothly receive the torch from Higgins when he begins to wind down. + Blend of ability and passion for the game. - Youth: goalies usually take longer to develop, so at 19 Hruska's long-term upside is a bit of a guessing game (as is the case with most young netminders). Comp Bob Watson.

2019 Brampton Excelsiors MSL Lacrosse Flash - TOP 2020 NLL DRAFT PROSPECTS: DEFENDERS Lacrosse Flash - NLL Draft Profile - Robert Hudson   IL Indoor 10/22/19 - Stamper's Musings: Early 2020 NLL Mock Draft, Plus Who to Watch for '21 & '22 7 Robert Hudson RT Brampton Excelsiors & Vermont Hudson had an excellent junior career with the Mimico Mountaineers, using his size and strength to provide solid defence, scoring 28 goals and 67 points in 71 games while taking just seven minor penalties (he also received a 10-minute fighting misconduct in the final period of his last regular-season game). Hudson adjusted to senior lacrosse quickly with Brampton. He wound up playing in all but one game all season for the Excelsiors and rarely looked like a rookie. He didn't score much this summer, but he did show the ability to clear the defensive zone calmly and effectively, a skill set that will stand him in good stead in the NLL.   IL Indoor 06/30/20 - Stamper's Musings: 2020 Mock Draft 2.1, College Players Back in the Mix 10 Toronto Rock Robert Hudson RT, Brampton Excelsiors & Vermont The popular rumour flying around seems to be that Toronto will try to trade Long Island native Tom Schreiber to New York for the first pick to get Jeff Teat. And if the Riptide would go for that trade, you do it in a heartbeat if you're Toronto. The reality is that the asking price for Teat would likely be more along the lines of Schreiber, another roster player and a couple of first-round picks. You simply do not give up the kind of franchise-changing asset that Teat could be without getting a ton in return. And that's not to diminish at all the amazing NLL career that Schreiber has fashioned; but at 28 he'll be a free agent in a couple of years, he's had some injury issues over the last couple of seasons, and he's living at least part time in Los Angeles while working for the PLL, which might make him a bit less appealing from the hometown boy perspective for the Riptide. Enough about who the Rock may or may not be in play to trade for. Sticking with their 10th pick, Toronto could add a solid defender who shone in his MSL rookie season in 2019. Robert Hudson is a Mimico Mountaineers product who was very good in junior but really stepped his game up when he moved to major. That is a good sign for a player's adjustment to the pro game. Toronto will love his commitment to playing strong defence first but always being ready and able to push the ball up the floor once it's turned over.   IL Indoor 08/24/20 - Stamper's Musings: Who Are the Top NLL Prospects Actually Available to Play This Year? Robert Hudson, LT, Brampton Excelsiors & Vermont Hudson is the top player available in this draft who won't be going back to school, having graduated from Vermont in the spring. He'd be a surefire first-rounder regardless, and probably top half of the first round in any scenario this year. The question becomes whether his availability to play this season vaults him ahead of the two defenders I've got ranked higher than him: Reid Bowering and Jeff Henrick. Hudson is a solid, smart defender who showed good decision-making in transition as an MSL rookie last summer. So many players could have benefited from having a chance to show their stuff this summer, but Hudson did enough last year that teams will have a pretty good handle on how he will fit in at the pro level. I haven't worked fully through my mock draft yet, but it's easy to see Hudson as a great fit for Georgia at #6 overall. The Swarm lost Alex Crepinsek and Leo Stouros from their back end, and with Zed Williams traded to Colorado it seems likely that Brendan Bomberry will move to offence. That means that Georgia needs defence and they need it now. They also have enough picks in the next few drafts—at least two other firsts this year, three first and three seconds next year, two or three firsts in 2022—to address their long term needs. Whether it's Georgia or someone else, don't expect Hudson to last past the midpoint of the first round.   Playing from Behind - #8 Overall - @_roberthudson @GeorgiaSwarmLAX Hudson’s game reminds me a lot of Bryan Cole. So it would make sense that the Swarm would want him as they look to reload their defense.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 1-10 8 Robert Hudson, LD, Brampton Excelsiors & Vermont Hudson had an excellent junior career with the Mimico Mountaineers, using his size and strength to provide solid defence, scoring 28 goals and 67 points in 71 games while taking just seven minor penalties (He also received a 10-minute fighting misconduct in the final period of his last regular-season game). Even given how good he was in junior, I thought Hudson was even better when he got to senior lacrosse with Brampton in MSL in 2019. He wound up playing in all but one game all season for the Excelsiors and rarely looked like a rookie. He didn't score much (1G, 4A in 17 games), but he did show the ability to clear the defensive zone calmly and effectively, a skill set that will stand him in good stead in the NLL. The fact that he stepped his level of play up when he was with and against better players bodes well for him to step into the NLL and immediately be able to play a key role.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 6 Georgia Swarm (from Colorado) Robert Hudson, LT, Brampton Excelsiors & Vermont This is where things get really hard to project. I saw Georgia taking Hudson for quite a while, then shifted to Tanner Cook. Ultimately, what swayed me back to Hudson was the wealth of quality lefty forwards available in this draft; Georgia can get the excellent defender who can come and play this year while still knowing there'll be a really good forward there for them in a couple of picks. Speaking of availability, listing it as Hudson's key strength isn't meant as a slight at all; Hudson is very good and may well have gone in the first half of the first round even if he were going back to school. A Georgia defense that lost Alex Crepinsek and Leo Stouros could really use someone who can come and play right away, though, and that might nudge Hudson ahead of some other quality prospects who are returning for the extra year of eligibility. + Available to play this year. - His scoring touch from junior didn't transfer to senior in his rookie MSL season. That's probably just a phase as he adjusts to the higher levels; I expect he will be effective in transition in the NLL. Comp Adam Wiedemann. Like his Brampton teammate Wiedemann, Hudson was a good junior player who stepped up his game when he moved up to MSL and was playing with and against better players.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2013 Mississauga Tomahawks OLA JR A 7 1 1 2 2 2013 Mississauga Tomahawks OLA JR B 17 6 9 15 18 2014 Oakville Buzz OLA JR B 17 15 24 39 6 2015 Mimico Mountaineers OLA JR A 9 6 10 16 0 2016 Mimico Mountaineers OLA JR A 15 8 10 18 0 2017 Mimico Mountaineers OLA JR A 20 3 11 14 6 2018 Mimico Mountaineers OLA JR A 20 10 7 17 16 2019 Brampton Excelsiors MSL SR A 17 1 4 5 12 Totals SENIOR A 17 1 4 5 12 Totals JUNIOR A 71 28 39 67 24 Totals JUNIOR B 34 21 33 54 24   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2014 Oakville Buzz OLA JR B 9 4 5 9 0 2016 Mimico Mountaineers OLA JR A 7 4 7 11 2 2017 Mimico Mountaineers OLA JR A 10 4 0 4 0 2018 Mimico Mountaineers OLA JR A 5 4 2 6 0 2019 Brampton Excelsiors MSL SR A 4 2 0 2 2 Totals SENIOR A 4 2 0 2 2 Totals JUNIOR A 22 12 9 21 2 Totals JUNIOR B 9 4 5 9 0

University of Albany	Ron John X-T-R 04/17/98 6-1 195 Angola, NY Albany
Drafted by the Oakville Rock in 3rd Round 16th Overall in the 2020 MSL Draft Will return to Albany in 2021 after 2020 season cancelled due to COVID-19 2019 Six Nations Arrows OLA Jr A Won Bronze Medal for Iroquois Nationals at 2016 U19 World Field Lacrosse Championships Won a bronze medal with the Iroqouis Nationals at 2018 World Field Lacrosse Championships Won 2017 Minto Cup with Six Nations Arrows Lacrosse Flash - TOP 2020 NLL DRAFT PROSPECTS: DEFENDERS Lacrosse Flash - NLL Draft Profile - Ron John   IL Indoor 10/22/19 - Stamper's Musings: Early 2020 NLL Mock Draft, Plus Who to Watch for '21 & '22 11 Ron John RT Six Nations Arrows & Albany There's always some guesswork involved in ranking projects, but for the top 10 I feel pretty confident that they're legitimate contenders to go in the first round next year. At this point, the players tend to demand a bit more of a projection, which of course increases the margin for error. John's strengths are athleticism, smart toughness and skill; he was a man among boys at the 2018 Founders Cup and showed flashes of elite potential at both the World Juniors and the 2018 field worlds with the Iroquois. The major question mark is simply his lack of high level game experience. A season of Sr A ball next summer should help him answer that question and will go a long way to determining how high he will go in the draft. What isn't in doubt is that John has a lot of potential.   IL Indoor 06/30/20 - Stamper's Musings: 2020 Mock Draft 2.1, College Players Back in the Mix 13 Georgia Swarm [from New England Black Wolves] Ron John RT, Six Nations Arrows & Albany John flies a bit under the radar because he has played only one full season of Jr A, which played a role in his fairly stunning fall to 16th overall in the MSL draft in January. His strengths are athleticism, smart toughness and skill; he was a man among boys at the 2018 Founders Cup and showed flashes of elite potential in 2018 at both the World Juniors and the field lacrosse worlds with the Iroquois. The major question mark is simply his relative shortage of high-level game experience, but he has a ton of upside. The latest information I have suggests that John has graduated and will not be returning for the extra year of school; that could move him up the list and make him a contender with Ty Thompson for the first player to be drafted who'll actually be available this fall.   Playing from Behind - #11 Overall - Ron John @HFXThunderbirds This pick makes a lot of sense to me. A roster that does not have many short-term holes to fill is able to select a high-upside defender who played his last season of Junior lacrosse with the @OfficialArrows.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 1-10 ***10 Ron John, RT, Six Nations Arrows & Albany John was good for the Arrows in 2017. The next summer he spent with the Jr B Seneca War Chiefs and led them to the gold medal game of the Founders Cup, where he was one of the three best players in the tournament. John scored 6 goals and 10 points in Seneca's five games while going out the back door to anchor the defence, pushing the pace smartly in transition and proving effective when he stayed up for some shifts on offence. He carried all those traits back to Jr A when he returned to the Arrows for 2019. The sample size is still limited—just 28 Jr A games—so it would have been great to get a chance to see him play with the Oakville Rock, who took him in January's MSL draft, this summer. We should get that chance next summer, after he returns to Albany for the COVID-19 extra year of eligibility and before he heads to his first NLL training camp. John did line up with and against men at the world field championship in Israel in '18, and he didn't look out of place at all in the Iroquois Nationals' lineup. While field experience isn't directly relatable to the box game, seeing John fare well against the best players in the world does inspire even more confidence that he'll be ready to be a solid contributor right out of the gate when he enters the NLL for the 2022 season.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 10 Georgia Ron John, RT, Six Nations Arrows & Albany Having added Hudson to play right away, the Swarm can nab another excellent two-way player for the back end who they won't have to protect from the expansion draft. As with the Rush, this is like adding another first-round pick next year (which is almost an embarrassment of riches, given that they already have three). John should get a season of Sr A in next summer, which will help prepare him to adapt his tremendous skill set to playing against men and have him ready to hit the ground running in the 2022 NLL season. + Athleticism and lacrosse IQ. - Hasn't played as much high-level box lacrosse as most of the other top-end defenders in this class. Comp Scott Self. A former NLL all-star and four-time Major Series Lacrosse defender of the year, Self was a dynamic two-way player for much of his career.

Kidd has speed and decent hands for a defender, as you can see in a highlight reel he posted to YouTube. He also shows a tendency to run into traffic that raises questions about his decision-making, but his athleticism often allows him to escape tricky situations into which he places himself. Like Conley, Kidd is a promising prospect who could easily be on the list of players NLL GMs would pay attention to, but he doesn't jump out as a traditional first-round prospect. And while it's always nice to add a homegrown prospect, the Warriors would be forgiven for wishing they might have a shot at fellow BC native Leclair or Henrick, who spent last summer playing for New Westminster.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 21-30 30 Bobby Kidd, RT, Langley Thunder This is likely to be a polarizing ranking.

At least, he could escape them in junior; that won't happen in the NLL, so Kidd's success in the pros will depend upon his ability to learn and adjust his game. There's no question that he has substantial upside.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 24 Colorado (from Georgia) Bobby Kidd, RT, Langley Thunder Jr A Kidd has a dynamite first step and a lot of skill.

Bryan Costabile is also an intriguing prospect; with no box experience but a dynamic game that could translate, the Notre Dame grad played in the PLL this summer so he has moved on from college   IL Indoor 09/11/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 41-50 47 Adam Kitchen, LF, Clarington Green Gaels Jr B and Trent Kitchen presents another of the challenges in comparing prospects from different leagues, locations and levels.

NewWest Salmonbellies	Tre Leclaire X-F-R 03/22/98 6-1 205 White Rock, BC Ohio State
Territorial Pick - Compensatory Pick by the Langley Thunder in the 2020 WLA Draft 2019 New Westminster Salmonbellies BC Jr A Leclaire returning to Ohio State in 2021 after 2020 season cancelled to COVID-19 Won Silver Medal for Team Canada at 2016 U19 World Field Lacrosse Championships Played for Team Canada at 2018 World Field Lacrosse Championships 2017 USILA Division I Third Team All-American 2018 & 2019 USILA Division I Honorable Mention All-American YouTube - Tre Leclaire (Class of 2016) Lacrosse Highlights YouTube - Tre Leclaire 2015 Lacrosse Highlights New Westminster Record - Juniors get close look at next big star 2019 BCLA Jr A 2nd Team All-Star NLL DRAFT PROSPECTS – TRE LECLAIRE Lacrosse Flash - 2020 NLL DRAFT TOP PROSPECTS: FORWARDS Lacrosse Flash - NLL Draft Profile - Tre LeClaire @OffTheCrosseBar interviews Tre Leclaire   IL Indoor 10/17/18 - Stamper's Musings: Early Mock Draft for 2019, Plus Really Early Contenders for 2020 & 2021 Looking Ahead to 2020 In virtually any Teatless draft year, Tre Leclaire (RF, New Westminster Salmonbellies Jr A & Ohio State) would be a serious contender for first overall. The righty forward is big, athletic and talented enough to have played a key role for Canada at the 2018 world field lacrosse championships. Leclair had 52 goals and 35 assists in 2018 and is poised for a massive 2019 in Jr A before moving up to senior lacrosse.   IL Indoor 10/22/19 - Stamper's Musings: Early 2020 NLL Mock Draft, Plus Who to Watch for '21 & '22 2 Tre Leclaire RF New Westminster Salmonbellies Jr A & Ohio State Leclair burst onto the BC Jr A scene back in 2015 as a 6'1”, 205-pound 17-year-old and proceeded to put up 40 goals and 54 assists to earn rookie of the year honours. Two years later he was a USILA third-team All-American then scored 52 goals after moving from the Delta Islanders to the Salmonbellies in the BCJALL. Last summer, Leclair was a teammate of Teat at the world field championships in Israel. The one concern with Leclair is that his production has plateaued at the junior level as other players caught up a bit with him physically. His per-game point averages in his four years of Jr A (he didn't play in '17), in order, were 4.7, 4.1, 4.8, 4.6. Those are very good numbers, they just didn't produce the 100-plus-point seasons that seemed inevitable for him. Leclair was a second-team all-star in the BCJALL this year; the three forwards on the first team were Malcom, Manns, and 2017 NLL first-rounder Ryan Martel. He is a strong candidate to go first overall in the WLA draft next February then will have a season of senior lacrosse to reinforce his elite prospect status.   IL Indoor 06/30/20 - Stamper's Musings: 2020 Mock Draft 2.1, College Players Back in the Mix 3 Vancouver Warriors Tre Leclaire RF, New Westminster Salmonbellies Jr A & Ohio State Smith would be the likely pick if an Eastern-based team were selecting in this slot, but being able to bring in an athletic and talented BC native will be tough to pass up for the Warriors. Interesting draft factoid from Warriors' colour commentator Brad Challoner via Twitter: Vancouver hasn't selected in the first round since 2013. They'll really want to make this one count.   Playing from Behind - #3 Overall - @treleclaire @nllwarriors An ideal scenario for the Warriors as they are able to select a local product at a position of need. Leclaire shoots it as hard as anyone in the league.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 1-10 ***7 Tre Leclaire RF, New Westminster Salmonbellies Jr A & Ohio State This is definitely a drop from where Leclaire has been regarded pretty much ever since he burst onto the BC Jr A scene back in 2015 as a 6-1, 205-pound 17-year-old and proceeded to put up 40 goals and 54 assists to earn rookie of the year honours. Leclaire won a world field championship medal with Canada in Israel in 2018 and he put up per-game point averages in his four years of Jr A (he didn't play in '17) of 4.7, 4.1, 4.8, 4.6. Those are great numbers and combine with his athleticism to confirm his status as a high-calibre prospect. There is just some concern that he never seemed to raise the level of his game from his rookie campaign. My draft broadcast colleague Teddy Jenner has made the point that Leclaire eventually faced the opposition's top defenders every game, which has some validity, and Leclaire did still score 52 goals in 2018, his first season after being traded from Delta to New Westminster. That is elite production. Leclair was a second-team all-star in the BCJALL in 2019. The four forwards on the first team, with when they were drafted into the NLL, were: Ryan Martel 11th in '17 Dennon Armstrong 30th in '18 Will Malcom 23rd in '19 Zach Manns 27th in '19 The reason behind pointing that out is not to denigrate Leclaire, by any means. In fact, the point is to show that he's still an excellent athlete and prospect and that there is no shame in being ranked 7th among all the players in this draft. It just may seem like a disappointment to land there after having been more highly touted for several years leading up to this draft. Someone is still going to be very happy to add Leclaire to their roster with a pick early on the evening of Sept. 17.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 5 Calgary Roughnecks Tre Leclaire, RF, New Westminster Salmonbellies Jr A & Ohio State The rumor mill says that Calgary has been trying to trade up to No. 2 to grab Bowering, who played for coach Curt Malawsky in Coquitlam. That connection makes sense, but if the trade doesn't happen and Bowering is gone, Calgary can address its main area of need at righty forward with one of the most athletic players in the draft. + Athleticism.

Declared Early for the 2020 NLL Entry Draft 2019 Gold Miners CCBLL 2018 CCBLL MVP YouTube - Troy Loper 2017 CCBLL Highlights Monterey County Now - Troy Loper UC-Santa Barbara 2016   12/27/19 - Best in Box: National Collegiate Box Series Top 40 - 3. TROY LOPER He may be from California, but we’re pretty confident Troy Loper could step into any rink north of the border and never be detected for not being a Canuck. The Gold Miners captain and long-time Cali*Lax ALL-STAR stud plays the game hard, and quite honestly, fills pretty much any role that exists in box lacrosse. Even though he crushes it defensively in his own end, his offensive abilities go far beyond simply sparking the press. Loper finished first on the Miners' goal scoring charts (30), which is incredible considering how many minutes he logs doing so many other things. His stick skills are superb, his box IQ is off the charts, his leadership ability is unmatched, and he’s so athletic he could probably change sports as a Senior at CSU and still make whatever roster he chooses. The CCBLL MVP in 2018, Loper will be a most valuable frontrunner again this upcoming summer. He will be drafted in the 2020 NLL Draft. He will play in the NLL. He will play for Team USA. He will.   06/27/20 - Best in Box: U18 #bctour Top 25 - 4. Troy Loper (2014 & 2015) For so many years, Americans playing in the NLL were applauded for their athleticism and work rate, but criticized for their lack of indoor IQ. No more. And it’s players like Troy Loper that will change that tired auto reply from those still stuck in the past. As difficult as those first two tours were, Loper was still able to showcase his super-freak athleticism, box-specific knowledge, and on-floor ability against the toughest of opponents in his ten tour contests. The versatile Cali*Lax ALL-STARS alumn finished at Cleveland State this year and should surely be selected in the upcoming 2020 NLL Draft, joining the likes of former NCBS players like Trevor Baptiste and Bryan Hancock by attending and impressing at an NLL training camp.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2017 Gold Miners CCBLL 12 31 9 40 0 2018 Gold Miners CCBLL 10 18 17 35 4 2019 Gold Miners CCBLL 10 30 5 35 Totals CCBLL 32 79 31 110 4   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2017 Gold Miners CCBLL 1 0 1 1 0 2018 Gold Miners CCBLL 1 2 1 3 0 Totals CCBLL 2 2 2 4 0

McClelland is an athletic defender who was a constant presence on some very successful @BramptonJrA teams.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 11-20 **12 Connor McLelland LT, Brampton Excelsiors & Marquette McLelland plays a strong all-around game. He's a steady defender with just enough of an edge to keep things interesting, but he doesn't hurt the team by taking lots of foolish penalties. He's fast, has pretty good stick skills and he'll push the pace effectively in transition but always seem to be in control and make good decisions. Brampton is turning out some really strong D/transition players and McLelland is right up there with the best of them.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 12 Saskatchewan Rush Connor McLelland, LD, Brampton Excelsiors & Marquette Similar to his Brampton defensive teammate and fellow first-round contender Robert Hudson, McLelland was a very good junior player who was quickly able to translate his high level of play from Jr A to Sr A. McLelland is fast and skilled and has a solid lacrosse IQ. + Plays fast and with an edge. - Not 6-5, 230 pounds. In other words, you're not getting Graeme Hossack at 12th overall, but you can still get a really good player. Comp Justin Robinson. Last year, Saskatchewan took a 6-1, 185-pound speedster of a lefty transition player who plays steady defense 9th overall. This year they could get a very similar player at 12th.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2014 Brampton Excelsiors OLA JR A 18 3 5 8 14 2015 Brampton Excelsiors OLA JR A 16 4 4 8 10 2016 Brampton Excelsiors OLA JR A 14 5 3 8 16 2017 Brampton Excelsiors OLA JR A 19 5 4 9 35 2018 Brampton Excelsiors OLA JR A 18 0 4 4 6 2019 Brampton Excelsiors MSL SR A 17 3 9 12 12 Totals SENIOR A 17 3 9 12 12 Totals JUNIOR A 85 17 20 37 81   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2014 Brampton Excelsiors OLA JR A 9 0 5 5 6 2015 Brampton Excelsiors OLA JR A 9 0 2 2 4 2016 Brampton Excelsiors OLA JR A 10 2 1 3 12 2017 Brampton Excelsiors OLA JR A 8 1 2 3 15 2018 Brampton Excelsiors OLA JR A 21 1 3 4 30 2019 Brampton Excelsiors MSL SR A 4 0 1 1 7 Totals SENIOR A 4 0 1 1 7 Totals JUNIOR A 57 4 13 17 67

Round 1 Pick 9
Langley Thunder	Brad McCulley F-L 01/31/97 6-2 200 Victoria, BC Robert Morris
Declared Early for the 2020 NLL Entry Draft 2019 Langley Thunder WLA jr_shamrocks - Meet #10 Brad McCulley ☘️ 5th Yr. Junior Lacrosse Flash - 2020 NLL DRAFT TOP PROSPECTS: FORWARDS Lacrosse Flash - NLL Draft Profile - Brad McCulley   IL Indoor 06/30/20 - Stamper's Musings: 2020 Mock Draft 2.1, College Players Back in the Mix 12 Saskatchewan Rush Brad McCulley LF, Langley Thunder & Robert Morris The Rush are in good shape with Mark Matthews being one of the best offensive players in the game and Ryan Keenan being a reliable complementary player. But then there are questions for the Rush's left side. Jeff Shattler averaged just 2.7 points per game this season. That may have been a blip, since in 2019 he played about as well as he ever has, which is very good. But when a player is 36, it becomes more important to monitor how much he's got left in the tank. Saskatchewan's fourth righty, Connor Robinson, was a high pick a couple of years ago but hasn't forced the team to work him into the lineup with his play. That leaves the door open for someone like McCulley to be a long-term answer in Saskatoon. McCulley is 6-2 and 200-plus pounds. He was a steady scorer in the BCJALL, posting back-to-back 72-point seasons for the Victoria Shamrocks. He had 20 goals and 37 points in 18 games for Langley last year as a WLA rookie. Those aren't overwhelming senior numbers, but it was enough to lead a Thunder club that won only four games and scored 32 fewer goals than any playoff team last summer.   Playing from Behind - #14 Overall - @bradmcculley @HFXThunderbirds Halifax gets an injection of youth into their left side with the @RMUMLacrosse alum. Age, contracts, and expansion could have a substantial effect on their lefty O in the near future. This is the T-Birds doing their due diligence.   IL Indoor 09/02/20 - Stamper's Musings: Four More 2020 Draft Prospects Available to Play This Year Brad McCulley, LF, Langley Thunder & Robert Morris While he doesn't have the skill level that Powless does (to be fair, not many people do), McCulley has the advantages of being a sturdy 6'2” and 200+ pounds, and of having played a season of Sr A last summer with the Thunder. He actually led Langley in scoring in 2019 after a strong junior career with the Victoria Shamrocks. Given that there are quite a few quality lefties in this draft, McCulley seems to be a likely second rounder—especially with Powless adding a huge talent to that list—but it wouldn't be shocking if he slipped into the tail end of the first.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 11-20 13 Brad McCulley, LF, Langley Thunder & Robert Morris McCulley is 6-2, 200-plus pounds and brings a mix of grit and skill to the floor. He was a steady scorer in the BCJALL, posting back-to-back 72-point seasons for the Victoria Shamrocks. He had 20 goals and 37 points in 18 games for Langley last year as a WLA rookie. Those aren't overwhelming senior numbers, but it was enough to lead a Thunder club that won only four games and scored 32 fewer goals than any playoff team last summer. In the NLL, he won't be asked to be the focal point of a team's offence, at least not right away, so he'll have a window of opportunity to play a complementary role while he adjusts to the pace and competitive level of the pro game.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 9 Buffalo Bandits Brad McCulley, LF, Langley Thunder & Robert Morris The Bandits lost free agent Corey Small, who was the 9th pick in the 2009 entry draft. In McCulley, they could replace him with a player who reminds me of Kyle Clancy, the player Buffalo took with the 10th pick in that draft. Many folks won't remember Clancy because he didn't last long in the league after suffering a serious injury in a car accident a couple of years into his career. Clancy was an excellent shooter who played a physical game for the Peterborough Lakers in their run of championship contention in the late 2000s. He scored 47 goals and 108 points in 2009. One thing that had me perhaps a bit lower on McCulley than a lot of other folks seem to be is that he didn't score a ton of points in junior or his first year of senior. He maxed out at 36 goals and 72 points in Jr A and posted just a 20/17/37 line in Sr A in 2019 (albeit leading Langley in scoring at that mark). Then I saw the stats of another BC Jr A player that weren't overwhelming but didn't keep him from doing pretty well in the NLL. That player's three top scoring seasons saw him post 62, 65 and 69 points. His name is Curtis Dickson. That comparison makes me feel much better about slotting McCulley in here. And, much like with Cook, there are things he does to help a team that don't show up on the score sheet. + Size and playing with an edge. - Didn't post huge scoring totals in junior or his first year of senior. Comp Kyle Clancy. Big, physical forward who scored 47 goals and 108 points in 2009 in Jr A.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2015 Victoria Shamrocks BCLA JR A 1 1 0 1 0 2016 Victoria Shamrocks BCLA JR A 21 25 47 72 42 2017 Victoria Shamrocks WLA SR A 1 0 1 1 0 2017 Victoria Shamrocks BCLA JR A 16 36 36 72 32 2018 Victoria Shamrocks WLA SR A 3 4 1 5 14 2018 Victoria Shamrocks BCLA JR A 16 26 31 57 24 2019 Langley Thunder WLA SR A 18 20 17 37 16 Totals SENIOR A 22 24 19 43 30 Totals JUNIOR A 54 88 114 202 98   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2017 Victoria Shamrocks BCLA JR A 4 5 7 12 4 2018 Victoria Shamrocks WLA SR A 7 2 5 7 6 2018 Victoria Shamrocks BCLA JR A 3 4 3 7 9 Totals SENIOR A 7 2 5 7 6 Totals JUNIOR A 7 9 10 19 13

2019 Peterborough Lakers OLA Jr A 2020 Whitby Steelhawks ALL Uncle Andy Ogilvie is a Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Famer who played for the Buffalo Bandits, Vancouver Ravens and Calgary Roughnecks First Cousin Mack O'Brien played with the Chicago Shamrox Won 2015 Meredith Cup with the Peterborough Lakers Member of the Ontario Jr. A Lacrosse League Player Council 2019 CUFLA West Division Honarable Mention Played for Australia at the 2019 World Junior Lacrosse Championship   IL Indoor 08/24/20 - Stamper's Musings: Who Are the Top NLL Prospects Actually Available to Play This Year? Mitch Ogilvie, LT, Peterborough Lakers Jr A and Guelph Ogilvie faces a conundrum as a prospect. When you just look at him, he doesn't strike you as having the physical attributes NLL teams look for; at 5'9” and a non-chiseled 200 pounds, he looks simultaneously too small and too big to succeed as a pro. But watch him play for a bit. Ogilvie was the unquestioned leader of a Lakers Jr A team that was missing a boatload of players to school and injury early last season. So all he did was lead the defence, play regularly on O, man the penalty kill and run the top of the power play. He's sneaky quick, has good hands and never looks like he gets too tired to just keep running up and down the floor doing whatever his team needs him to do. Ogilvie played a similar role for Australia at the 2019 World Juniors in Mississauga, where the coach was his uncle and legendarily tough player Andy Ogilvie. On a Peterborough team that didn't have the talent or experience to win many games, Ogilvie was one of the two main reasons (goalie Landon Kells being the other) that the Lakers weren't an easy out for other OJALL teams last summer. He would definitely be worth taking a chance on for one of the teams with multiple second-round picks that have already been mentioned.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 31-40 31 Mitch Ogilvie, LT, Peterborough Lakers Jr A and Guelph Ogilvie is first cousins with fellow Peterborough product Mac O'Brien, who got into a couple of NLL games and was one of the best transition players to ever set foot on a CLax floor. Ogilvie shares some traits with his cousin in that he's a D-first guy but is effective running the floor and has good stick skills. Ogilvie has another relative who played: his uncle Andy is a Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Famer who won a pair of Minto Cups, three Mann Cups and a world championship. Andy's NLL career started in 1999, the year that Mitch was born. Mitch took on a huge leadership role with the Lakers the last two years, serving as captain in 2019. He was also a top-five scorer on the team despite playing primarily defense. In 2019, though, he did it all, leading the defense corps, killing penalties, playing sometimes on offense and quarterbacking the power play. He played the same kind of role for Australia at the 2019 World Juniors, at which Andy was the Aussie coach. Importantly, while playing tons of minutes, Mitch was clearly focused on helping his Australian teammates learn and develop as much as they could on their North American adventure. He doesn't look super athletic, but he never seems to stop running, and Ogilvie has the heart of a warrior.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 33 New England (Compensatory pick—David Brock) Mitch Ogilvie, LT, Peterborough Lakers and Guelph If you watch Ogilvie play for a while you will become a fan. He's a heart-and-soul defensive grinder who is talented enough to stay up and play offence occasionally if you need him to. He'll go through a wall for his teammates and coaches and come out the other side smiling. + Grit, heart, more skill than you realize at first, and leadership. - Just 5-9 and conditioning may be a question, although he has a constant motor and just keeps going and going while playing big minutes. Comp Nolan Heavenor. A sturdy 5-9 ball of energy and team player.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2015 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR C 8 1 2 3 0 2016 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR C 15 10 9 19 6 2017 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 18 2 9 11 0 2018 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 20 5 17 22 6 2019 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 18 8 10 18 12 2019 Australia WJLC 2 2 1 3 2 2020 Whitby Steelhawks ARENA LL 1 0 0 0 4 Totals ARENA LL 1 0 0 0 4 Totals JUNIOR A 56 15 36 51 18 Totals JUNIOR C 23 11 11 22 6 Totals WJLC 2 2 1 3 2   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2015 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR C 10 0 0 0 4 2016 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR C 8 4 3 7 6 2019 Australia WJLC 2 5 9 14 0 Totals JUNIOR C 18 4 3 7 10 Totals WJLC 2 5 9 14 0

Orangeville Northmen	Mac O'Keefe X-F-L 02/06/98 6-0 180 Syosset, NY Penn State
2019 Generals CTCBLL Will return to Penn State in 2021 after 2020 season cancelled to COVID-19 Won Gold Medal for United States at 2016 U19 World Field Lacrosse Championships 2019 USILA Division I Second Team All-American 2017 & 2018 USILA Division I Honorable Mention All-American Lacrosse Flash - 2020 NLL DRAFT TOP PROSPECTS: FORWARDS Lacrosse Flash - NLL Draft Profile - Mac O'Keefe   IL Indoor 10/22/19 - Stamper's Musings: Early 2020 NLL Mock Draft, Plus Who to Watch for '21 & '22 Mac O'Keefe LF Orangeville Northmen & Penn State Far more potential than production so far, having played just 15 games for Orangeville in 2017 and putting up a 15/18/33 stat line, but the talented Syosset, NY native has advocates and could be a high pick with some more time in the box next summer.   06/27/20 - Best in Box: U18 #bctour Top 25 - 3. Mac O’Keefe (2015) He played one game in the pre-NCBS Connecticut Collegiate Box Lacrosse League (now fully NCBS sanctioned) last year. Many were hoping he’d play in the new Upstate loop this year (pre-pandemic cancelation) to up his NLL draft stock. But for those that saw Mac O’Keefe on the 2015 U18 #bctour, you could already see what this future pro player would be capable of indoors. O’Keefe proved to be a fire finisher but also baited, dished, and created offensive space all week with his hard to miss orange mitts and red runners. While we’ll have to wait another year to hear his name called out at a future NLL Draft, one thing is for certain, O’Keefe will follow in his father’s footsteps and play in the box big leagues. How good would O'Keefe look in a Riptide jersey? Everyone already knows he looks pretty fresh in navy.   IL Indoor 06/30/20 - Stamper's Musings: 2020 Mock Draft 2.1, College Players Back in the Mix 9 Buffalo Bandits Mac O'Keefe LF, Orangeville Northmen Jr A & Penn State Small sample size is a big problem when assessing O'Keefe, as well. The skilled lefty is a Top 10 all-time goal scorer in NCAA history and will almost surely shatter Justing Guterding's record of 212 when he returns to the Nittany Lions next spring (O'Keefe has 189 goals, leaving him 24 short of breaking the record, and he scored 25 goals in just six games in the abbreviated 2019 season). But in the box, O'Keefe has just one season of Jr A under his belt (a 15-goal, 18-assist summer of 2017 with the Orangeville Northmen). He also got into a single game in '19 in the Connecticut Collegiate Box Lacrosse League, where he was likely to play again this summer before it was cancelled. So while O'Keefe clearly has talent, it's always difficult to project the success of primarily field players in their adjustment to the NLL. He could be the next Matt Rambo, which would make the Bandits very happy in this scenario. One upside of O'Keefe returning to Penn State is that he should have a chance to play some box in the summer of 2021 before he heads to his first NLL training camp.   Playing from Behind - #18 Overall - @MacOKeefe3 @NEBlackWolves Arguably the best shooter to come out of the NCAA in the past 20+ years. I was extremely impressed with his ability to create separation using picks and seals off-ball. His season with @JrANorthmen is also an added bonus.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 21-30 **29 Mac O'Keefe, LF, Orangeville Northmen Jr A & Penn State Small sample size is a big problem when assessing O'Keefe.

But in the box, O'Keefe has just one season of Jr A under his belt (a 15-goal, 18-assist summer of 2017 with the Orangeville Northmen).

All positives for a Riptide team that is looking to create local awareness and support. + Excellent talent and a bit of box experience. - That box experience was just one summer in Orangeville as a 19-year-old.

@worldjrlax	Marshall Powless F-L 07/27/00 6-0 185 Six Nations, ON Mohawk
Declared Early for the 2020 NLL Entry Draft 2019 Six Nations Rebels OLA Jr B 2019 Six Nations Arrows OLA Jr A 2020 Six Nations Snipers ALL 2018 World Junior Lacrosse Championship - Iroquois Nationals - Silver Medal 2018 WJLC IIJL All-World Team Brother of Johnny Powless of the Toronto Rock 2019 OLA Jr B West - MVP Lacrosse Flash - NLL Draft Profile - Marshall Powless   IL Indoor 10/22/19 - Stamper's Musings: Early 2020 NLL Mock Draft, Plus Who to Watch for '21 & '22 Marshall Powless LF Six Nations Rebels Jr B When Powless scored 84 points with Wallaceburg in 2018, it didn't seem likely he could almost double his point total a year later. That's what he did, though, topping his previous total in assists alone with 97 and adding 54 goals for a whopping 151 points in 20 games. En route to the final of the Founders Cup, Powless added another 108 points in 21 games. Then he helped the Six Nations Rivermen win the Presidents Cup Sr B championship by scoring 21 points in seven games. That was one more point than his older brother, Johnny, by the way. It sure was fun watching them play together for the Rivermen and it will be fun watching Marshall bring his luminescent stick skills to the highest levels of the game.   IL Indoor 09/02/20 - Stamper's Musings: Four More 2020 Draft Prospects Available to Play This Year Marshall Powless, LF, Six Nations Rebels Jr B & Six Nations Snipers ALL Powless is clearly the gem of the renunciation list. With one more year of regular junior eligibility (plus the possible extra year if the OJALL sticks with their plan to include 22-year-olds in junior), Powless was committed to moving up to Jr A with the Six Nations Arrows this summer. Getting a chance to see him play at the highest level of competition for a full season would have made it much easier to compare him to other players in the draft; it's always hard to project Jr B numbers to higher levels. But wow, his Jr B numbers were spectacular. He scored 151 points, including 54 goals, in the 2019 regular season then added 108 in the playoffs. AS a point of comparison, likely 2nd overall pick Ryan Smith scored 37 goals and 71 points in his 19-year-old Jr B season split between the Hamilton Bengals and Oakville Buzz. That speaks well to Powless' skill and production. Now, Smith went on to post lines of 45/35/80 and 53/49/102 in two seasons of Jr A with the Burlington Chiefs. We don't know what numbers Powless would have put up had he gotten to play Jr A this summer. Smith also had an excellent rookie season in Major Series Lacrosse last summer, scoring 22 goals that could easily have been 30 had he not been a bit snake bit on great scoring chances, especially early in the season. None of this is to say that Powless should be ranked ahead of Smith, who has earned all the accolades and attention he is getting as one of the best players in the draft. It's more to point out that Powless is ridiculously talented and very difficult to gauge precisely as a prospect because we haven't seen him play Jr A. One thing that does help is that last summer, Powless played for the Six Nations Rivermen as they won the Presidents Cup Sr B championship. He finished third on the team in scoring and in some games was the best offensive player on a squad that included Zed Williams and Marshall's older brother Johnny Powless. So we know he can stand up against men. I checked with Marshall and he says he is now 6'0”, 185 pounds, so while he's not a bruiser he is big enough to hold his own. Certainly, he never seemed out of his depth at the Prezzy. Where does he go? Hard to say, but I'd be stunned if he gets out of the first round and he could go higher rather than lower in that round.   Playing from Behind - #20 Overall - @marpowless18 @HFXThunderbirds Seems like an obvious fit to me (@SN_Arrows). Styres drafted older brother Johnny and got 3 titles out of it. If Marshall had declared before I released my Round 1 mock draft I would have projected HFX to select him at 11 or 14.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 1-10 5 Marshall Powless, LF, Six Nations Rebels Jr B The order in which to rank Powless and Cook was one of the hardest decisions I've had to make in this Top 50 list (and I tend to overthink and get embroiled in minutiae throughout the process, anyway). When Powless declared for the draft, I spoke to a bunch of NLL GMs and other evaluators whose opinions I respect to ask how you compare players who haven't played at the same level. In this specific case, the question is what do Powless' almost video-game statistics in Jr B vs Cook's solid Jr A numbers. It would have helped so much to see Cook play in MSL with the Brooklin Lacrosse club and Powless with the Jr A Six Nations Arrows. What I have seen from Marshall Powless in the numerous games I've gotten to watch him in person is a wealth of talent and creativity. He makes passes that from his stick look simple, but when you break them down you realize the incredible blend of vision, awareness, skill and confidence that are required to make them and that even most very good players don't possess at such high levels. I just really think he's a special player. I would rather have had more than seven games at the Presidents Cup to see him playing at a higher level than Jr B upon which to base my evaluation, but there are so much bigger issues from the pandemic that I'm not going to harp on how it impacted our ability to watch some lacrosse games. Even without this summer's leagues happening, I've seen enough to believe that Powless is going to have a tremendous pro career and I'm excited to watch it unfold.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 8 Georgia Swarm Marshall Powless, LF, Six Nations Rebels Jr B Adding a high-caliber lefty opens up options for the Swarm. They could move Bryan Cole back to transition, where he probably provides greater benefit to the team, or they could keep Cole up front and let him focus on opening space for Jackson, Hall and Powell. Whatever they elect to do, adding the sublime talent that Powless brings to the roster harkens back to the Swarm championship season of 2017 when they were the highest-scoring NLL team ever. + Next-level skill and creativity. - Needs to add some strength. Comp Late career Jeff Shattler. When Shattler started going out the front door, he became an NLL MVP.

Riggs wasn't highly touted coming out of midget, but he started in Jr C and steadily worked his way up to being a Jr A stalwart for the Chiefs. He's still a bit raw and he won't be asked to handle the ball much, but Riggs is improving rapidly and is probably ready to ease his way into a pro lineup already. At just 20 years old, and with his size, Riggs' has huge potential.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 20 Halifax (from San Diego) Ethan Riggs, LD, Burlington Chiefs Jr A and Six Nations Snipers Having taken a pair of defenders who won't be available till next year, the Thunderbirds can add a dose of toughness to the back end for this season. + Big and nasty but can also play. - Not blazing speed, although he moves well for a big man.

Declared Early for the 2020 NLL Entry Draft 2020 Kitcbener-Waterloo Braves OLA Jr A 2020 Paris RiverWolves ALL Olivet 2018   IL Indoor 04/27/20 - Stamper's Musings: Imagining the 2020 NLL Draft Without College Players 14 Halifax Thunderbirds (compensatory pick for Matt Vinc signing) Kobe Robinson, Barrie Lakeshores and Paris RiverWolves Robinson went to Olivet College in Michigan for one year in 2017/18 but didn't return last year, so he's eligible for this non-college-players draft. He'd be trying to follow the path of current Halifax Thunderbirds defender Colton Armstrong in making it to the NLL after playing primarily Jr C, although unlike Armstrong, Robinson did play one full season of Jr A lacrosse. Then again, that season was for the 0-20 Lakeshores in their final year before folding. Robinson played every game for the RiverWolves this season and improved steadily to the point where he was becoming a consistently reliable defender who didn't make too many mistakes.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2016 Caledon Bandits OLA JR C 11 0 2 2 8 2017 Barrie Bombers OLA JR C 14 1 0 1 9 2018 Barrie Bombers OLA JR C 13 1 1 2 53 2019 Barrie Lakeshores OLA JR A 20 0 1 1 27 2020 Paris RiverWolves ARENA LL 12 0 0 0 0 Totals ARENA LL 12 0 0 0 0 Totals JUNIOR A 20 0 1 1 27 Totals JUNIOR C 38 2 3 5 70   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2016 Caledon Bandits OLA JR C 2 0 0 0 0 2017 Barrie Bombers OLA JR C 1 0 0 0 0 2018 Barrie Bombers OLA JR C 2 0 0 0 0 Totals JUNIOR C 5 0 0 0 0

Smith did put up a 100-point season in junior, leading the Ontario Jr A league with 52 goals and finishing second to Teat with 101 points. He formed a killer Burlington Chiefs right side along with 2021 draft first overall candidate Ryan Lanchbury and Halifax Thunderbirds Chris Boushy. Smith didn't miss a beat moving to senior, finishing in the top 10 in MSL in goals (22) and points (49). Even though those are impressive totals for an MSL rookie, watching him play regularly this summer made it clear that he could have scored quite a bit more. Smith generated tons of chances but hit a lot of posts or just missed shots. Sometimes that is indicative of a player who isn't a great finisher; in Smith's case, though, it looks much more like someone who just had a stretch of games where he wasn't quite hitting his spots. Expect him to have a huge summer in 2020 and to make a smooth transition to the NLL after he is selected high in the draft.   IL Indoor 06/30/20 - Stamper's Musings: 2020 Mock Draft 2.1, College Players Back in the Mix 4 San Diego Seals Ryan Smith RF, Burlington Chiefs Jr A & Robert Morris The Seals get a player who was very good in junior then stepped his play up a level when he reached major. That bodes well for him to step in and perform well from Day One in the NLL, albeit a year from now. Given that San Diego is pretty loaded with relatively young talent up front already, they could seriously consider Reid Bowering instead. It would be hard to pass up Smith if you get a chance to snag him fourth overall, though. He has the potential to be a stellar offensive contributor for years.   Playing from Behind - #2 Overall - @Smith_Ryan5 @RocKnighthawks Roch lands a pure outside shooter. Smith’s unique release will give @NLL goalies trouble. He can also be an extremely effective screener at 5v5.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 1-10 **2 Ryan Smith RF, Oakville Rock & Robert Morris There's a lot to like about Ryan Smith. He's got great floor awareness, excellent timing and good hands. What I really like about him as a prospect even more than all that, though, is his constant drive to improve. Just look at what he's done through his young career. 2014: 6 points in 7 Jr B games as a 16-year-old (he was born two days before Christmas, so in his 17-year-old year he was actually 16 for the whole season) 2015: 57 points (31G, 26A) in Jr B 2016: 71 (37, 34) in Jr B 2017: 80 (45, 35) in Jr A 2018: 102 (53, 49) in Jr A 2019: 49 (22, 27) in 18 Sr A games; 18 (11, 7) in 4 Sr B games One thing that stands out about that list of accomplishments to me: even though he was coming off a 50-goal Jr A season, he had no problem playing four games with the Oakville Titans when the Rock asked him to do so for experience at the senior level. Two of those games even came after the Rock had started their MSL season. Smith played for the Titans, a well-run Sr B club that is helping many players along their developmental roads, on Saturday, June 15 in Kitchener; the next day he went to Cobourg with the Rock to play the Kodiaks. That's about as long a distance as you can travel from one senior lacrosse game to another in Ontario and Smith did it without complaint. The 4-goal game in Kitchener was his last with the Titans, as the Rock obviously decided they wanted him full-time. He's going back to RMU for 2021, but expect that the team who drafts him will be excited to have him with them full-time as soon as he is available.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 2 Rochester Knighthawks Ryan Smith, RF, Oakville Rock & Robert Morris The Knighthawks could use some defensive help, but Smith is too good to pass up here. He can be a great sidekick to Shawn Evans and will be ready to be a leading man when the 34-year-old Evans is ready to pass the torch. +Mix of skill and size lets him be effective inside. -Could be quicker, although he gets where he needs to be. Comp Robert Church.

But I've already given the Thunderbirds a steady defender in this round. Let's take a look at their left side. Cody Jamieson and Ryan Benesch were both really good last year, but they are 33 and 35 this year. Both look like they've got plenty left in the tank, but you always have to be preparing a succession plan when players get into their mid-30s. Kyle Jackson's production dipped substantially (25 points in 11 games after 60/73/63, respectively, in his three full seasons). Eric Fannell has played just 11 games over the last two seasons and scored just 12 points in those games. Sowers is definitely a project, having never really played box lacrosse. He's also wondrously athletic and extremely talented. What really excites me about his potential to adjust well to the box game is his vision and passing touch under defensive pressure. The fact that he's heading to Duke for his COVID-19 bonus year would give the Thunderbirds a year and a half to work with him on developing in the box. If he's willing and available to play a season of box next summer in Canada, he might just be ready to step in and play a role come the 2022 NLL season.   IL Indoor 09/11/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 41-50 ***44 Michael Sowers LF, Princeton/Duke Sowers epitomizes the challenge of assessing prospects from the U.S. college system who haven't played box lacrosse. Based solely on skill and athleticism, Sowers would be way higher than 44th on this list. As I wrote in Mock Draft 2.1, “He's also wondrously athletic and extremely talented. What really excites me about his potential to adjust well to the box game is his vision and passing touch under defensive pressure.” The flip side is that you just never know how well a particular player will adjust to the box game; everyone is not Tom Schreiber. Also, I don't know if Sowers wants to play in the NLL, he would definitely be a field-first guy for pro lacrosse, and the job prospects beckoning Ivy League grads tend to make it more difficult to entice players to come to the NLL for an $11,000 rookie salary. Throw in the extra year he's taking at college, transferring to Duke, and you've got a real conundrum. Although in Sowers' case, that extra year could actually be a positive, since it would give him a chance to prepare for pro indoor if it's a route he wants to follow.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 35 Philadelphia (Compensatory pick, from Saskatchewan—Brett Mydske) Michael Sowers, LF, Princeton/Duke The Wings can wait a year until Sowers wraps up his transfer year at Duke, try to get him some box experience over the summer, then see what he can do indoors. + Explosive athlete. - No box experience. Comp Josh Gillam. Obviously, Sowers doesn't have Gillam's box pedigree, but Gillam was an unbelievable athlete with insane stick skills. Before injuries derailed him, Gillam was a tantalizing prospect.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM

Peterborough Lakers	Jordan Stouros X-D-L 09/27/96 5-11 200 Ottawa, ON Limestone
2019 Peterborough Lakers MSL Won 2019 Mann Cup with the Peterborough Lakers Won 2017 NCAA Division II Championship with Limestone 2019 USILA Division II First Team All-American Lacrosse Flash - TOP 2020 NLL DRAFT PROSPECTS: DEFENDERS Lacrosse Flash - NLL Draft Profile - Jordan Stouros   IL Indoor 10/22/19 - Stamper's Musings: Early 2020 NLL Mock Draft, Plus Who to Watch for '21 & '22 9 Jordan Stouros LD Peterborough Lakers & Limestone Stouros is often overlooked because he isn't a remotely flashy player, but he is a solid defender who played an important depth role in the Lakers Mann Cup win this summer. There was a run of seven straight defenders taken, from 9 through 15, in the first round of the '19 draft (Justin Robinson, Tyson Bomberry, Kason Tarbell, Brent Noseworthy, Ryan MacSpadyen, Trevor Smyth, Aaron Forster). Stouros would fit in just behind that group but ahead of this year's second round defenders based on his performance so far; with another full summer of Sr A in Peterborough, he should rise to that level and cement himself as a first round pick.   IL Indoor 06/30/20 - Stamper's Musings: 2020 Mock Draft 2.1, College Players Back in the Mix 11 Halifax Thunderbirds Jordan Stouros LD, Peterborough Lakers & Limestone Playing for successful teams can be a wonderful boost to a young player's exposure, and coming from such a program often makes the transition to playing at the highest levels of the game a little easier. But it can also create some challenges, particularly in terms of getting playing time. That's what Jordan Stouros has to overcome to get the attention he deserves as a highly ranked prospect. Stouros played a key role in the Jr A Peterborough Lakers last playoff run, back in 2015, while splitting time playing for his hometown Jr B Gloucester Griffins. Then he went through a couple of tough seasons for the Peterborough Jrs before graduating to the MSL Lakers in the middle of their current back-to-back-to-back Mann Cup championship run. He got into just five games in 2018 then 12 in 2019. But while he may not have gotten to play all the time because the Lakers have put together a remarkably strong and deep defence corps, Stouros was solid and consistent whenever his number was called. He is physically sturdy, has a high lacrosse IQ and uses his athleticism wisely. For a comparable, think of Trevor Smyth, whom Halifax took 14thoverall last year. The Thunderbirds would be thrilled if Stouros had as successful a first season and showed as much promise as Smyth did this spring.   Playing from Behind - #9 Overall - @JtrainStouros08 @NLLBandits Immediate Mitch de Snoo replacement. Stouros plays with an edge and has experience playing against men with the @PtboLakersLax.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 11-20 **11 Jordan Stouros LD, Peterborough Lakers & Limestone Playing for successful teams can be a wonderful boost to a young player's exposure, and coming from such a program often makes the transition to playing at the highest levels of the game a little easier. But it can also create some challenges, particularly in terms of getting playing time. That's what Jordan Stouros has to overcome to get the attention he deserves as a highly ranked prospect. Stouros played a key role in the Jr A Peterborough Lakers last playoff run, back in 2015, while splitting time playing for his hometown Jr B Gloucester Griffins. Then he went through a couple of tough seasons for the Peterborough Jrs before graduating to the MSL Lakers in the middle of their current back-to-back-to-back Mann Cup championship run. He got into just five games in 2018 then 12 in 2019. But while he may not have gotten to play all the time because the Lakers have put together a remarkably strong and deep defence corps, Stouros was solid and consistent whenever his number was called. He is physically sturdy, has a high lacrosse IQ and uses his athleticism wisely.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 11 Halifax Thunderbirds Jordan Stouros, LD, Peterborough Lakers & Limestone While Stouros didn't get to play all the time in the Lakers' loaded defense corps, he was ready every time he was called upon and there wasn't a noticeable drop in team defense any time he played. That is a great asset for a young player earning his way into an NLL lineup that has been pretty successful already. + Solid, consistent . - A bit short on senior playing time. Comp Alex Crepinsek. The former Swarm stalwart wasn't a sexy pick at the end of the the first round of the 2012 draft, but he provided Georgia eight seasons of reliable defense, the kind of player who coaches love knowing they can plug into the back end and get consistent performance.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2013 Gloucester Griffins OLA JR B 14 1 4 5 2 2014 Gloucester Griffins OLA JR B 16 2 7 9 15 2015 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 5 0 1 1 2 2015 Gloucester Griffins OLA JR B 11 7 6 13 2 2016 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 10 1 1 2 4 2016 Gloucester Griffins OLA JR B 7 4 2 6 0 2017 Peterborough Lakers MSL SR A 3 1 0 1 0 2017 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 10 3 1 4 17 2018 Peterborough Lakers MSL SR A 5 0 0 0 0 2019 Peterborough Lakers MSL SR A 12 0 2 2 10 Totals SENIOR A 20 1 2 3 10 Totals JUNIOR A 25 4 3 7 23 Totals JUNIOR B 48 14 19 33 19   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2014 Gloucester Griffins OLA JR B 2 0 1 1 2 2015 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 12 0 1 1 10 2015 Gloucester Griffins OLA JR B 5 2 5 7 6 2016 Gloucester Griffins OLA JR B 3 1 3 4 0 2019 Peterborough Lakers MSL SR A 8 0 1 1 2 Totals SENIOR A 8 0 1 1 2 Totals JUNIOR A 12 0 1 1 10 Totals JUNIOR B 10 3 9 12 8

But Suboch impressed me every time he played for the MSL team and could really raise his stock with a strong full season in MSL next summer. One thing that Suboch adjusted substantially as he moved up to play against men was his discipline. Toughness is great and being a 6'5” defender who plays a gritty game will earn you some penalties; the problem with Suboch's junior game is that he took 83, 68, 83 and 60 in his four years with Mimico. That's just too much time in the box; it hurts your team when you're taking that many penalties. This summer, while still playing an aggressive style, Suboch took just eight minors with BLC and never more than two in a game. That is a good sign that he's learning to be smart tough, which bodes well for him to evolve into a potential first rounder.   IL Indoor 06/30/20 - Stamper's Musings: 2020 Mock Draft 2.1, College Players Back in the Mix Other candidates Jackson Suboch LD, Brooklin Lacrosse Club & Massachusetts Big (6-5, 215 pounds), gritty, improving rapidly and quickly learning the difference between tough and smart tough, Suboch was set for a potential Brent Noseworthy-esque climb into the first round with a solid 2020 MSL summer.

He reminds you of the days before all the players wound up being teammates in other leagues and the intensity of rivalries tended to be tamped down a bit. Suboch will hit anything wearing the opposing team's colours. While he never shies away from contact, Suboch has learned to keep his physical play mostly within allowable limits to cut down his penalty minutes. His edge is just the thing that San Diego could use in its back end. Seals coach/GM Patrick Merrill (who sits fourth all time in penalty minutes in the NLL) wouldn't be a bad comparable for Suboch, either, so that could appeal to Merrill. If the Seals preferred to go with a western player, Ethan Ticehurst and Bobby Kidd are both righty defenders with plenty of potential upside that could be intriguing. + Old school mean disposition on the floor. - Could use some more high-level play for seasoning, but he can get that next summer after his COVID year at Massachusetts.

Next summer will be big for him to show what he can do with a little more experience under his belt.   Playing from Behind - #6 Overall - @Larson_Sundown @GeorgiaSwarmLAX Sundown can be a complementary scorer in an experienced Swarm offense. He has shown that he can create his own shot in the WLA (with @WLAShamrocks). This pick eases the loss of Zed Williams.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 21-30 ***25 Larson Sundown, LF, Victoria Shamrocks and RIT Sorry if I'm repeating myself, but this summer could have been a big one for Sundown and a boon to evaluators trying to get a thorough read on him. He's talented, with an excellent knack for the quick-stick, and scored 38 points in the 2019 WLA regular season with the Shamrocks. Then he posted just 15 in 14 playoff games as Victoria reached the Mann Cup finals. It's important not to read too much into one playoff run from a rookie in senior lacrosse; I learned that lesson in 2012 when I ranked Shayne Jackson far too low after he wasn't prominent in the Mann Cup. Then again, Jackson was playing with Garrett Billings, Athan Iannucci and Lewis Ratcliff, big stars who commanded plenty of touches in that offence. Sundown was outscored in the Mann by six other forwards as well as defender Steve Priolo. Sundown definitely has potential that could reward a team that is able to develop him.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 28 Vancouver (from Saskatchewan) Larson Sundown, LF, Victoria Shamrocks and RIT Sundown is from Basom, N.Y., but is used to living on the West Coast after spending seasons with New Westminster and Coquitlam in Jr A and Victoria in Sr A.

Brendan Szabo LT, Delta Islanders Jr A Szabo has blazing speed as well as good instincts and hands, which combine to make him a threat to pick off passes or snag loose balls and take off to score in transition. He is a little undersized at 5'11” and 175 pounds but uses leverage and footwork to maintain defensive integrity.   IL Indoor 04/27/20 - Stamper's Musings: Imagining the 2020 NLL Draft Without College Players 4 San Diego Seals Brendan Szabo, LT, Delta Islanders Here's what I wrote about Szabo, who played for Canada at the World Juniors and for Ireland at the WILC last fall, when I ranked him #40 in my prospects list for last year's draft: “Szabo has blazing speed as well as good instincts and hands, which combine to make him a threat to pick off passes or snag loose balls and take off to score in transition. He is a little undersized at 5'11” and 175 pounds but uses leverage and footwork to maintain defensive integrity.” I was surprised that he didn't get taken among the 88 players selected last year, but the fact that every team passed on him multiple times shows that Szabo isn't a high-profile prospect. I want to make very clear that I am not denigrating the players in this list by pointing out that they are not the kind of players teams anticipate selecting with first-round picks. These are good lacrosse players. They just aren't at the level of players like Teat, Smith, Leclaire and Henrick. Like so many other players this year, another summer of development and opportunities to show NLL scouts what he can do would be huge for Szabo. The growing likelihood that there won't be any summer lacrosse is going to make it difficult for players and evaluators alike as we head into this fall's draft, whether a lot of college players are in the draft or not.   IL Indoor 08/24/20 - Stamper's Musings: Who Are the Top NLL Prospects Actually Available to Play This Year? There are other runners who will contenders to go in the top half of the draft. Among them are Delta Islanders lefty transition player Brendan Szabo, lefty forward Adam Kitchen from the Jr B Clarington Green Gaels, Barrie Lakeshores lefty tranny Oriale Mandeville, and Hunter Aggus, a righty transition who played for the Hamilton Bengals Jr B and the Paris RiverWolves in the ALL. Bryan Costabile is also an intriguing prospect; with no box experience but a dynamic game that could translate, the Notre Dame grad played in the PLL this summer so he has moved on from college   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 31-40 36 Brendan Szabo, LT, Delta Islanders Szabo's most noticeable asset is his speed. He's also a solid defender. A summer season would have been helpful for him to showcase himself, but Szabo told me that he was spending his time off working to get bigger and stronger, more prepared to handle the challenges he'll face as he steps up to senior and hopefully pro lacrosse. He was a valuable contributor for Ireland at the World Indoor Lacrosse Championship last fall in Langley, about 20 minutes from his house. He also represented Canada at a pair of World Juniors.

With Staats entering the 2018 draft and going to San Diego with the first pick, that leaves Teat (LF, Brampton Excelsiors Jr A & Cornell) alone in the spotlight. He is an ethereal talent who scored 96 goals and 156 assists for 251 points in Jr A. Those are pretty good numbers, but here's the thing—they are just his totals in 44 playoff games! He also put up 213 goals and 364 assists for 577 points in the regular season.   IL Indoor 10/22/19 - Stamper's Musings: Early 2020 NLL Mock Draft, Plus Who to Watch for '21 & '22 1 Jeff Teat LF Brampton Excelsiors & Cornell There is no debate about this pick. Either Tre Leclaire or Ryan Smith would be a fine first overall pick, but no one is taking a player other than Teat with the first selection in this draft. He is a special talent who should be the centrepiece of a team for many years. The only question about Teat as he began his senior career with Major Series' Lacrosse's Excelsiors this summer was whether he was too small (listed at 5'9” and 160 pounds) to be as effective against men as he had been against junior players. He began answering that question with his strong performance at last summer's world field lacrosse championship, where he represented Canada. The real test, of course, is in the box. It took Teat some time to adjust to the senior game. Specifically, it took him about 60 minutes of game time. Teat wasn't very good in his first game, Brampton's season and home opener against the Peterborough Lakers. In a rematch four days later, Teat scored the Excels' first 4 goals, finished with 5 goals and an assist, and never looked back. He went on to lead MSL in goals (36, 9 more than second-place finisher Andrew Kew, the third pick in this year's draft) and points (80, 11 more than runner up and NLL veteran Kyle Buchanan).   IL Indoor 06/30/20 - Stamper's Musings: 2020 Mock Draft 2.1, College Players Back in the Mix 1 New York Riptide Jeff Teat LF, Brampton Excelsiors & Cornell Teat is a generational player. While teams may have to think about whether they want to wait a year for a player who is going back to college —like Teat, who will play at Cornell in 2021— that won't be a factor for New York.

While teams may have to think about whether they want to wait a year for other players who are going back to college —like Teat, who will play at Cornell in 2021, assuming there is a college season next year— that won't be a factor with Teat. He is the clear choice whether New York hangs on to the pick or is blown away by a trade offer that they just can't refuse (which is highly unlikely). He's well worth the wait.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 1 New York Riptide Jeff Teat, LF, Brampton Excelsiors & Cornell NLL teams aren't allowed to give players who are heading back to school a team hat, so they probably aren't allowed to have their name plate sewed on to a jersey.

University of Hartford	Ty Thompson F-L 09/02/98 6-6 210 Nepean, ON Hartford
Drafted by the Brooklin LC in 1st Round 4th Overall in the 2020 MSL Draft Won 2019 Minto Cup with Orangeville Northmen Lycoming 2017-18 YouTube - Ty Thompson 2018/2019 box highlights Lacrosse Flash - 2020 NLL DRAFT TOP PROSPECTS: FORWARDS Lacrosse Flash - NLL Draft Profile - Ty Thompson   IL Indoor 04/27/20 - Stamper's Musings: Imagining the 2020 NLL Draft Without College Players Some other players are coming out this year as well. Ty Thompson is a statuesque and skilled lefty forward from Nepean, Ontario, who finished up at the University of Hartford this year. He helped the Orangeville Northmen win a Minto Cup last summer and in January was selected fourth overall by Brooklin Lacrosse Club in the Major Series Lacrosse draft.   IL Indoor 06/30/20 - Stamper's Musings: 2020 Mock Draft 2.1, College Players Back in the Mix 8 Georgia Swarm Ty Thompson LF, Nepean Knights & Hartford Thompson may have stood to benefit more than anyone else in this projected first round from a full season of senior lacrosse in 2020. His big positive is that he was excellent in helping the Orangeville Northmen win the Minto Cup last summer, he uses his size well and he definitely has talent. The down side is that he only played six regular-season Jr A games. Thompson's sample size at the highest level of junior is just too small to be entirely confident in projecting that he'll be able to thrive in the pro game. There's a lot to like about him, though, and the fact that he'll be entering the NLL this year rather than returning to college (making him possibly the first player drafted who isn't going back to school) is a bonus for whoever snags him, in this case Georgia adding some depth to the left side.   IL Indoor 08/24/20 - Stamper's Musings: Who Are the Top NLL Prospects Actually Available to Play This Year? Ty Thompson, LF, Nepean Knights/Orangeville Northmen & Hartford Thompson will be another case study in instant vs delayed gratification. Tanner Cook and Ethan Walker are probably ahead of him on most draft boards, particularly since the sample size on Thompson is fairly small; he played primarily Jr B and his Jr A exposure was mostly just the Minto Cup in 2019. He was really good in that Minto, though, showing off his ability to make good use of his size (6'6”, 210 lbs) and skill at the highest level of the junior game. Given that potential but lack of experience, a season on the practice squad seems a possibility for Thompson as he proves his readiness to play pro. It's likely that Thompson goes in the first round; whether it's in the first half or the later stages depends largely on how much teams value having him somewhere on their roster this year instead of waiting for one of the lefties who won't be available to play till the 2022 season.   Playing from Behind - #19 Overall - @TyThompson_7 @RocKnighthawks The big @officialNKJRB product can step in and immediately be Rochester’s 2nd or 3rd option on the left side. His ability to play right away is key as it allows Highfield to run out the back-door where he is most effective   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 11-20 16 Ty Thompson, LF, Nepean Knights & Hartford Thompson will be a case study in instant vs delayed gratification. Tanner Cook, Ethan Walker and Marshall Powless are probably ahead of him on most draft boards, particularly since the sample size on Thompson is fairly small; he played primarily Jr B and his Jr A exposure was mostly just the Minto Cup in 2019. He was really good in that Minto, though, showing off his ability to make good use of his size (6-6, 210 lbs) and skill at the highest level of the junior game. When Thompson is selected depends largely on how much teams value having him on their roster this year instead of waiting for one of the lefties who won't be available to play till the 2022 season. With Brad McCulley renouncing his college eligibility, making him available to play this year, there is also another lefty competitor with size and skill vying for a high draft spot.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 22 Colorado Mammoth Ty Thompson, LF, Nepean Knights/Orangeville Northmen & Hartford I know Colorado already returns Eli McLaughlin, Chris Wardle, Will Malcom and Jeff Wittig on the left and just spent first- and second-round picks to add Connor Robinson to that side. It seems like they have plenty of young talent, but while they consistently allow among the fewest goals in the league, last year the only teams they scored more often than were Rochester, Vancouver and New York. Having Thompson fall into their laps here just seems like too much to pass up for a team that is looking for ways to create offence. + Size and skill combination. - Very limited sample size at Jr A level. Comp Peter Morgan. The 6-6 Morgan made the 2002 NLL all-rookie team and had five 20-goal seasons in his career.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2015 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 13 5 12 17 2 2016 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 1 0 1 1 0 2016 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 10 5 12 17 6 2017 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 19 32 39 71 26 2018 Orangeville Northmen OLA JR A 3 3 6 9 0 2018 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 18 30 57 87 43 2019 Orangeville Northmen OLA JR A 2 3 2 5 0 2019 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 16 24 72 96 40 Totals JUNIOR A 6 6 9 15 0 Totals JUNIOR B 76 96 192 288 117   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2015 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 2 1 5 6 2 2018 Orangeville Northmen OLA JR A 13 8 20 28 6 2018 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 4 5 11 16 4 2019 Orangeville Northmen OLA JR A 8 8 17 25 0 2019 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 11 18 38 56 24 Totals JUNIOR A 21 16 37 53 6 Totals JUNIOR B 17 24 54 78 30

The following January, he was selected in the opening round of the WLA draft. Ticehurst is fast and tenacious, and he's got the stick skills to have scored at least a point per game in each of his Jr A seasons, peaking with 14 goals and 10 assists in 18 games in 2019. He's been described as a rink rat, which—in case you aren't familiar with the lexicon—is high praise coming from a coach.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 21 Calgary Ethan Ticehurst, RT, Coquitlam Adanacs Jr A and Towson Coach Curt Malawsky will be familiar with Ticehurst from their shared Coquitlam backgrounds and should like the drive he will bring to the Roughnecks' back end. Calgary was one of only three teams to allow more than 11 goals per game last year; the win total of the other three was less than or equal to the individual win totals of eight other teams. While Calgary would love to add Reid Bowering to its back end, if the Roughnecks can't get him then Ticehurst might be the closest approximation to Bowering's game they can find. + Speed, skill and tenacity. - Smallish for an NLL defender.

Canada Lacrosse	Jordan Trottier D-L 08/20/98 6-4 215 Ottawa, ON RIT
Declared Early for the 2020 NLL Entry Draft Drafted by the Langley Thunder in 2nd Round 4th Pick in the 2020 WLA Draft 2019 New Westminster Salmonbellies BCLA Jr A 2018 World Junior Lacrosse Championship - Canada - Gold Medal   IL Indoor 04/27/20 - Stamper's Musings: Imagining the 2020 NLL Draft Without College Players Jordan Trottier is another tall player, at 6'4” standing just a couple of inches shorter than Thompson. The lefty defender from Ottawa played Nepean Jr B, one full season with the Peterborough Jr A Lakers and last summer with the New Westminster Salmonbellies in the BCJALL. He was a member of the Canadian team that won the 2018 World Junior Lacrosse Championship in Saskatchewan. Trottier graduates from RIT this spring and will not be heading back to school to play an extra season.   IL Indoor 09/02/20 - Stamper's Musings: Four More 2020 Draft Prospects Available to Play This Year Jordan Trottier, LD, New Westminster Salmonbellies Jr A [drafted by Langley Thunder Sr A] & RIT Trottier was a teammate of Buck's on that 2018 Canadian World Juniors team and he stood out at times among a strong group of defenders. He's 6'4” and 215 pounds, smart and steady. He plays with enough of an edge to make opposing forwards uncomfortable but doesn't take foolish penalties. There are about a half dozen lefty D/T who will be considered for spots in the first round. There is probably a group of players at other positions between them and Trottier, but given that there are 20 picks in the second round, it's hard to picture him falling beyond the second.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 31-40 32 Jordan Trottier, LD, New West Jr A [Langley Thunder Sr A] & RIT Trottier bounced around a bit, starting with the Jr B Nepean Knights, spending a year with the Jr A Peterborough Lakers, returning to Nepean for a year, then heading to New Westminster Jr A for his final season of junior. He's a big (6-4, 215 pounds) and fairly physical defender with decent hands and solid lacrosse instincts. Whoever coaches him in the NLL will probably want him to be a bit meaner, but he is no shrinking violet. Trottier is the kind of steady defender that may go largely unnoticed but that coaches feel confident rolling out game after game knowing that he'll do his job and help the team.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2014 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 1 0 0 0 0 2015 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 2 0 1 1 0 2015 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 16 0 3 3 25 2017 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 15 1 3 4 38 2018 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 1 0 0 0 0 2018 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 8 1 1 2 8 2018 Canada WJLC 1 0 1 1 0 2019 New Westminster Salmonbellies BCLA JR A 14 4 2 6 19 Totals JUNIOR A 32 5 6 11 57 Totals JUNIOR B 25 1 4 5 33 Totals WJLC 1 0 1 1 0   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2015 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 1 0 1 1 0 2018 Nepean Knights OLA JR B 4 1 1 2 4 2018 Canada WJLC 1 0 0 0 0 2019 New Westminster Salmonbellies BCLA JR A 7 0 0 0 6 Totals JUNIOR A 7 0 0 0 6 Totals JUNIOR B 5 1 2 3 4 Totals WJLC 1 0 0 0 0

In 2019, he was the victim of extraordinary depth on the Sr A Lakers' roster (the other lefties in the lineup were Mark Matthews, Holden Cattoni, Turner Evans, Corey Small and Cory Vitarelli, with Adam Jones sitting out the season after his house burned down), allowing him to get into just six games. Still, Walker flashed enough of his potential to merit inclusion in the top half of the first round. It would immensely help him to solidify that standing if he gets a chance to play regularly in 2020.   IL Indoor 06/30/20 - Stamper's Musings: 2020 Mock Draft 2.1, College Players Back in the Mix 6 Colorado Mammoth Ethan Walker LF, Peterborough Lakers & Denver A Pioneers grad, a highly skilled lefty, and a good character kid. That's a trifecta that feels like it would be too tough for the Mammoth to pass up. One thing that could cause them to, though: Walker is listed at 5-foot-9, 170; Tanner Cook at 6-3, 205; Ty Thompson at 6-6, 210. Both Cook and Thompson are also talented, and size is a need for the Mammoth offence.   Playing from Behind - #16 Overall - Ethan Walker @NLLwings. If he is available at 16, I can’t see Paul Day passing up on the high-ceiling, skilled, lefty shooter. Walker hasn’t played much box due to Culver and Denver, but he fared well in 7gp with @PtboLakersLax in 2019.   IL Indoor 09/12/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Top 50 Prospects — 1-10 ***9 Ethan Walker, LF, Peterborough Lakers & Denver What a year this is for lefty forwards. They are a commodity always in high demand, and the crop in this year's draft class in amazingly deep: I have four of them in my top 10 prospects, six among the top 20 and fully a third of the top 30 prospects from that position. Walker is a great shooter and, despite not being the biggest guy and having dealt with some serious injury issues, shows no hesitation to go to the gritty areas of the floor and do the work to help his teammates succeed. He didn't put up enormous numbers in his junior career, but a study of his situation shows a number of reasons why that was the case. His first full year of Jr A was the last season to date that the Lakers were really competitive, in the summer of 2015. They had a deep team with a dozen players currently on NLL rosters and three others who will likely be drafted this year, including fellow first-round candidate Jordan Stouros. Walker finished sixth on the team in scoring with 20 goals and 24 assists for 44 points. Because he was late joining the team after returning from Culver Academy, though, he did that in just 12 games and was actually second on the team in points per game, ahead of players like Kyle Killen, Jake Fox and Zach Currier. Even last year, when he moved up to Sr A, Walker didn't get a full opportunity to show what he can do because the depth chart was so stacked. It's hard for even an elite prospect to earn playing time as a rookie when the five other lefty forwards on the two-time defending Mann Cup champs you're playing for are Mark Matthews, Holden Cattoni, Corey Small, Cory Vitarelli and Turner Evans. Walker did just fine when he got into the lineup, scoring 5 goals and 7 assists in limited shifts during six games. This explanation hasn't been just about Walker; it's a a long-winded way of sharing why easily scannable statistics aren't always the be-all and end-all of scouting and it's necessary to go a little deeper. In this specific case, though, it does help explain why Walker, despite not having eye-popping numbers, is still recognized as an elite prospect who will almost surely go in the first round of the draft.   IL Indoor 09/16/20 - 2020 NLL Draft: Stamper's Mock Draft 13 Georgia (from New England) Ethan Walker, LF, Peterborough Lakers & Denver What do you do with four first-round picks? Well, if you're Georgia in 2020 it makes sense to grab a couple of players who can fill roles right now and a couple who will join the team in a year. A few weeks ago, it would have been hard to imagine Walker dropping this far. But if he's here, it would be an awfully nice pickup for the Swarm to add another skilled lefty. They could consider Ty Thompson if they want more size (and if they wanted another player who can come this year). I also think it would make sense to seriously consider Patrick Dodds. With Zed Williams gone, the Swarm do have the option of moving Brendan Bomberry up front. Dodds, though, would bring a rugged presence and size that could give them a bit of a different look on the right side. Especially if they're not confident they can reach agreement on a contract with Randy Staats, adding Dodds to the mix could make a lot of sense. + Great shooter who isn't afraid to work off ball. - Size (5-9, 170 pounds). Comp Holden Cattoni. Walker's Peterborough teammate Cattoni is a deadly shooter who doesn't mind working to help free up space for his teammates.   Regular Season Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2013 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 3 1 0 1 2 2014 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 7 1 4 5 4 2015 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 12 20 24 44 0 2016 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 9 10 18 28 0 2018 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 9 18 17 35 37 2019 Peterborough Lakers MSL SR A 6 5 7 12 0 Totals SENIOR A 6 5 7 12 0 Totals JUNIOR A 40 50 69 113 43   Playoffs Year Team League GP G A Pts PIM 2014 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 5 3 3 6 0 2015 Peterborough Lakers OLA JR A 14 21 18 39 0 2019 Peterborough Lakers MSL SR A 1 1 0 1 2 Totals SENIOR A 1 1 0 1 2 Totals JUNIOR A 19 24 21 45 0

Fighting Bison	Skylar Whinery G-R 06/25/XX 6-1 230 Denver, CO Texas State
Declared Early for the 2020 NLL Entry Draft 2019 Fighting Bison CCBLL Lacrosse Flash - 2020 NLL DRAFT SLEEPERS   12/27/19 - Best in Box: National Collegiate Box Series Top 40 - 4. SKYLAR "MOOSE" WHINERY “Moose” likely has more legit minutes played at the rink and between the pipes than any other American goalie playing the sport right now. We’ll give you a minute, but trust us, there’s no one else. Between the time he’s spent playing for Denver Elite at a ton of tournaments, multiple runs with Team USBOXLA in Canada, and now eating up an obscene amount of action in three full CCBLL seasons, Whinery’s portfolio is positively poppin’. He’s previously garnered interest from Junior clubs in Canada, but “Moose” is 100% built in America. He plays his angles well, reads the game brilliantly, and should get some attention at next year’s NLL Draft. Outside of an NCBS record 80-shot shelling in Game 2 of the National Championship, Whinery’s 2019 was pretty perfect otherwise.   06/27/20 - Best in Box: U18 #bctour Top 25 - 6. Skylar "Moose" Whinery (2015 & 2016) There were some games where Team USBOXLA got lit up pretty severely both on the scoreboard and especially in the shots against column. In many of those matches, it was “Moose” that kept the team competitive with his play between the pipes, garnering attention and invites from BCJALL and OLA Junior ‘A’ teams after both U18 tours he served. Since then, Whinery has developed into one of USBOXLA’s most talked about talents and leads a growing college-aged American goalie pool that was barely a puddle prior to these tours and the launch of the NCBS.   Regular Season Year Team League GP W L T OTL MIN GAA GA SV SV% 2017 Fighting Bison CCBLL Goalie Stats Not Available 2017 Fighting Bison CCBLL Goalie Stats Not Available 2019 Fighting Bison CCBLL Goalie Stats Not Available   Playoffs Year Team League GP W L T OTL MIN GAA GA SV SV% 2017 Fighting Bison CCBLL Goalie Stats Not Available 2017 Fighting Bison CCBLL Goalie Stats Not Available 2019 Fighting Bison CCBLL Goalie Stats Not Available
