Congrats to Rabil, not bad for a rookie! And of course Merrill is one of the best defenders ever.
And of course former JJ star Matt Bocklet is doing so well congrats to him, he’s part of the wave of young stars flooding the MLL.
His younger brother will start on UVA next season, I’m predicting a breakout year. Apparently White and English will battle for the 3rd spot alongside Bocklet and Stanwick.
