Inside Lacrosse is proud to announce the IL/EvoShield Power 100 Freshman Rankings.

No surprise, Syracuse’s Joey Spallina —the new No. 22— is the No. 1 player in the class.

Syracuse has three players in the Top 10 and five 5-star athletes:

1. Joey Spallina, A, Syracuse | Mount Sinai (N.Y.)
5. Finn Thomson, A/M, Syracuse | St. Michael’s (Ont.)
6. Riley Figueiras, D, Syracuse | St. John’s (D.C.)
11. Billy Dwan, D, Syracuse | Loyola Blakefield (Md.)
20. Jimmy McCool, G, Syracuse | New Hampton (N.H.)

The Class of 2022 has never been ranked on this scale. The COVID-19 pandemic altered their key recruitable stretches, and when the contact period opened this group did their visits and discussions with coaches over Zoom and FaceTime. The group is presented as a full 100 list for the first time.

ACC commits make up eight of the Top 10 players. Will Schaller, an LSM from Hill School (Pa.) comes in at No. 8, and Griffin Scane, a Culver (Ind.) midfielder, is at 9.

Spallina has been a known quantity since an elementary schooler on the fields of the MLL All-Star Game. He leads the way for a stellar Orange class and pulls no punches in what he hopes to accomplish.

I think the theme for our class is to bring ’Cuse back, and that’s what we’re going to do,” Spallina said after earning MVP of the Senior All-America Game.
