COACHES VIEW:
"With Jack's ACL injury, we will have to wait for him to emerge on the PSU lacrosse scene. From the fall, we were able to see the unlimited potential he shows as a complete lacrosse player. His finishing skills are excellent and he has a quick release, the ability to get into seams on defense and he definitely makes others around him better." - Coach Thiel
