Nike G8: College Coaches Need These Players

The Nike G8 is an invitation-only event, a Yellow Jackets and STEPS Lacrosse production. Hosted at Capelli Sports Complex and Rider University, the 2027s-2034s played on July 9-July 11. The top college coaches were in attendance to watch the top club teams compete.    Farwell is a smooth and clean dodger. She has a crazy quick inside roll that she smokes defenders with. Her vision stood out in her game against Salt City Snipers. The attacker from Delaware ripped an underhand shot off the eight meter. In her game against Laxachusetts, she came up from “X” and made an unbelievable shot that she put in on the nearside pipe. The NXT product can pull out BTB shots, which are so impressive.     Myers stands at 5'11” and plays for HHH and William Penn Charter School (Pa.). She looks like a college player playing against high school players. Myers plays great lockdown 1v1 defense and is super physical. She causes turnovers, intercepts passes, and scoops up ground balls. In the clear, she is automatic and makes heads-up passes. Against Laxachusetts, she had 4 self-draws in the first half. Her stock continues to rise.     Beard is a very good player. Her on-the-run shot is fast. In her game against Aces Elite, she had a righty sweep, which she got downhill and scored. Her next goal was identical. Right sweep, turned the corner, and got downhill.     Lucia Ruscitti is a 6'1” attacker from Toronto, Ontario, who attends Taft School in Connecticut. A very powerful lefty who takes the draw and can win it to herself. Her upside is very high. Great feeds to the inside. Competes for ground balls. A player to keep an eye on come 9/1.     Corcoran's quick first step is extremely lethal, and it's special. She is one of the shiftiest players in the Class of 2028. In her game against Hero's, she absolutely cooked her matchups. There was a ton of talent in the game between both rosters, and let's just say Corcoran shook a player more than once who is highly sought after in the Class of 2028. A straight-up workhorse on every play. Flies around on defense.     Holden flies from pipe to pipe. Makes the most unbelievable saves. Every time I watch Holden play, she impresses me more and more. Out of all the goalies in the Class of 2028, Holden might have the quickest reflexes and hand movement. Another great outing from the top goalie in the Class of 2028.
