In addition they cut the defensemen of the year in Nassau voted on by all the coaches and he played lights out during tryouts. I guess all the Nassau coaches are wrong. He is not attending any of the coaches schools so I am not surprised. 5 face off players still on roster. That will change but still. My only question is what sleeve on game jersey will have Ohio St logo. No problem with kid from Bama. He played well. But well enough ??


You mean 36%? Just because you played well in Nassau County, does not mean you automatically are the best when you go up against a selected pool and are not with your teammates. This team was not picked because of HS awards, although it did help them get picked initially. Remember that NC did fall short at championship time. The PSU attackman picked overall did better that his HS teammate. Was a better field player and feeder, just better overall even if he didnt score two goals. I'm actually a big fan of the kid, but there were so many great ones, I agree with the choice. As for fogos, PSU kid was the best by far at the tryout, it would have made sense for them to cut 2-3 which still would have left the OS kid most likely, I was surprised they cut the NC kid being cut, he did well at the game.
