I wonder how many of the best face off players were wrestlers? You ask any college lacrosse coach, or go to any recruiting seminar, like the one at 3D blue chip, they are looking for multiple player athletes, but no matter what I say you will say I am wrong and clueless, so keep having your boy train just for lax, I am sure you know more then everyone else, BTW google Fowler, great HS wrestler.
I think the best face off guy alive is some high school wrestler who has not played lacrosse yet...that position is dominated by kids who are or could be great wrestlers. Face offs clamps are not a lacrosse stick skill and FOGOs don't need other stick skills.
You are insane. Every player on the filed needs stick skill, speed and Lax IQ. Yes, I have a fogo who is also a better middie than most but happens to be exceptional at fogo...

If face off get off guys have such great face off skills why do they get off? If your fogo is better than most middies the coach should be playing him or you should find a new team so the kid can play. To be specialized at the high school level and basically podgeonholed in one area really hurts development. What is the goal if the kid takes face offs then leaves the field in ninth grade? Especially that age wouldn't you want your best athletes and players on the field?
