PLAYERS WHO IMPRESSED AT TRYOUTS: Conor Kirst-The righty who played for the New Jersey TOC champions Delbarton is a true two-way middie. He showed a knack for winning at the face off X as well as several timely shots on the offensive end of the field. Kirst’s hard work and willingness to do what it takes to win was evident from the first whistle on Tuesday. Nick Decaprio- The South Jersey standout is the only return player from last year’s roster. Decaprio showed skill getting the ball off the ground and up the field to jump start the transition game. His athleticism gives him the range to cover middies up top and his intelligence gives him flexibility to work down low on defense. However, his best quality may be his stick work. Kevin Quigly – The Duke commit shows explosive speed up the field in transition, which also helps him to gain separation to unleash his cannon of a shot. Quigly was at his best during the top 44 game with two highlight reel shots.

COACHING STAFF: Baron Wallenhurst (Moorestown HS), Tim Roy (Montgomery HS), Kerry Weigner (Immaculata HS) and Carl Houser (Glen Ridge HS).
