About Brinn
Expert Analysis
Justin Staggers | Prep Girls Lacrosse Scout
A plug-and-play type of player, Brinn Castrechini can be put anywhere on the field and excel. She takes the draw and plays attack, and does both exceptionally well. A strong draw taker who can win it forward or backward, her specialty is the self draw. She uses her height to get above other players and secure possession at will. She is among the best in her class from the self-draw standpoint, and dominated on Sunday against Baltimore doing just that. As an attacker, she is dynamic, capable of finishing from different angles and release points. She draws a lot of contact with her size and regularly ends up at the eight-meter mark as a result. She had a step-down top-shelf rip on the free-position attempt that was as clean a finish as seen this weekend. She sets the tone with a physical effort on the ride as well, using her height to put immediate pressure on goalies and force errant passes and bad decisions on the clear. Castrechini will be a highly prized recruit come September.

Castrechini wrapped up an incredible summer campaign. Her game will translate well into the college game. Against Team West Coast, she had a nice dunk low on the left pipe. She paired that with two self-draws in the first half. In her game against Team Long Island, she had a great underhand rip off the 8-meter that drilled the top-left corner. Against Team Baltimore, she had three self-draws in the second half.

Castrechini has extremely quick hands when taking the draw. She loves to win the draw to herself. The 2028 recruit is truly one of the best draw takers in the class. In her game against UMASS, she ran the floor really well, got the ball inside, and put it in the back of the net.

Castrechini is one of the best draw takers in her class. She won three self-draws in the first half against Hero’s. Extremely quick hands for the Fairport (N.Y.) native. Against Eagle Stix, she had five self-draws in the first half. It will be interesting to see if college coaches try to sell her on being a draw specialist at the next level. She can literally change the output of a game. Aces Elite beat Eagle Stix 7-5, and she had a huge part in it.
