Jamesville-Dewitt’s run of consecutive New York State titles came to a close this season, but the Red Rams continue to roll in with college commitments.
In the next couple of days, we will be focusing on some of them.
Today, we profile junior attackman Griffin Feiner.
The 6-foot-2, 175-pounder is a strong, right-handed finisher with exceptional stick skills.
Feiner, who enjoyed a productive summer for Team United, has verbally committed to the University of Hartford.
