One of the teams that will be mentioned early and often when it comes to most number of committed seniors from the nation’s No. 1 hotspot for lacrosse, the NY/NJ/CT tristate region, will be Suffolk County (NY) power Sachem North.
The Flaming Arrows have 11 Class of 2015 standouts who have announced their intentions to play at the collegiate level.
Among them is defender Brian Biase, whose commitment to Division III Moravian, first reported when it was made by Joe Lombardi on LaxLessons.com’s Lacrosse Insider premium coverage section.
“Brian is a great kid and teammate,” Sachem North coach Jason Mauro said. “Brian has worked hard to improve his game over the last year. He will continue to work and improve.”
The 5-foot-6 Biasi, a righty, is an aggressive and physical player who is known for his all-out style of play.
Now, here’s a Q&A with Brian on his commitment.
What were the main factors in your decision?
The main factors for my decision to attend Moravian were the fact that dducation is one of the top majors at this school, the campus location and appearance, and finally the coaching staff.
What other schools were you considering and what schools did you visit?
Anna Maria College, Albertus Magnus College and Kean University.
What are your strengths as a player and how would you describe your style of play?
I like to play physical and I constantly try to increase my lacrosse IQ.
What area of your game do you need to work on?
My footwork and overall speed.
How did you get introduced to lacrosse and what other sports have you played?
I was introduced to lacrosse in second grade after quitting baseball. I have played football since I was 5 years old.
What travel team do you play on what showcase events did you participate in?
I played for SCC travel until they split the league up into north and east high school.
Since then I have been playing for Sachem North travel team.
Over the years I have played at Lehigh, Hershey, Umass, Hofstra, Stony Brook and many other events.
Any final thoughts and people you want to thank?
I want to thank the following people, Coaches Jason Mauro, John Lang, Paul Benway and Alexandar Grimm.
I would also like to thank my youth coaches Wayne Ratigan, Bill O’Brien and Vito Russo.
Last but not least, my parents for always being there for me.
