Thanks!
Saw on that first link that he is graduating HS in 2013, so he is SB class of 2017. Thats two juniors committed already, 7 seniors (class of 2016).

Just posted on LP, the third recruit in the Class of 2017:
KYLE ROWE '17
Vienna, VA / James Madison HS

National Faceoff Tournament- Rising Junior 1st Place: http://faceofftournament.com/results
-
I think nagle can really recruit.
-
Yeah. Thats three rising juniors who have verballed already.
Size is good for FOGOs. Lets say this kid is 15. At 5'11'' 190lbs, he may grow even bigger.
-
I think Coach Nagel is doing a fine job of recruiting both locally and nationally. Alot of optimism about this team especially in 2013, but we will surprise folks in 2012 !

Looks good. Thanks for the update Chairman!
-
Scratch that above- i think it says Reh is a senior in 2011-12, so he will appear in the fall of 2013, set to graduate in 2016. I moved him over to the 2016 thread.

More updates on our HS commitments, again, this is the Laxpower cpu rating:
Johnstone (Hill Academy): 10-3 (#142 CCR) a few big wins, tough sched
Garcia (Germantown): 10-10 (#95 CCR) a lot of close games, low scores
Rowe (James Madison): 12-6 (#328 CCR) a close losses, i think made playoffs
Cunningham (MacArthur): 7-9 (#1089 CCR) struggled against good teams
Andreassi (Sachem North): 13-5 (#184 CCR) struggled against good teams
Again, FWIW.

I'm guessing that second link is from a couple years ago because some of those kids look pretty young. There's also a couple kids who have transferred within the last two years, and that list still shows their previous school. I'm guessing he's more like 6'2" or 6'3" now.
-
Well either way, he is a player on a good team. 65pts as a junior, UA team, LI Showcase, All Conf as a soph, All County as a junior. Here's a photo:

2013 Team Superstar Blue Elite

2012: 25G, 4A
2012 All Section
2012 All League
Can dodge, shoot, faceoff, and clear. He's also a wrestler, a running back, and has a brother one year younger than him. Seems he has scored some nice extra man goals with his outside shot. And one more year of high school left to grow and hone those skills.
Here's an article i found: http://boyslacrosse.lohudblogs.com/2012/04/13/about-last-night/
The Tuskers are going to be very good before the season’s over, but there are so many sophomores in the rotation there’s bound to be a couple of hiccups along the way. I was surprised to see how strong the midfield is right now. Thare are some difference-makers running around out there, namely Alex Corpolongo and Chris Marasco.
-
Class of 2017 has six so far (havent played their senior years yet): Johnstone (G), Garcia (D), Rowe (M/FO), Cunningham (M), Corpolongo (M), and Mahon (A).
Mahon scored a goal in the UA Underclassmen games against New England: http://insidelacrosse.com/news/2012/06/30/under-armour-underclassman-tournament-day-1-and-2

Another sport where the future is more than bright. I mean this season was a total rebuilding year top down with no F/O guy and we still won the AE. Imagine with all this talent in the pipeline what we will be like.

He put up 27, 3 last year as a junior, including a hat trick against John Jay in the NY Section 1 title game. I also saw this quote: Brian Prestreau is drawing rave playoff reviews, scoring 10 goals in four post-season affairs and 16 goals in his last six games overall. Throw in 11 GBs for good measure and you have the makings of a complete player.
2012 All Section. ski team, basketball team. No video available, one year of HS left to go.

Brandon Bailey, LSM, Bowie (Md.) has verbally committed to Stony Brook. The 5-11, 175-pound Bailey lettered in four sports his junior year( football, indoor & outdoor track & lacrosse) and earned second-team All-League honors in lacrosse. He played summer lacrosse for T2 Storm Lacrosse Club and was a participant in 2012 King of the Hill Tournament (all-star honors) and in the 2012 MVP Team Tournament (all-star honors). Also considered Hofstra.

He attends Bowie HS in MD, where he plays football and track, however, they only have a club team. So i guess he competes in lacrosse only at nearby Eleanor Roosevelt HS.

Nagle loves multi sport athletes. Bailey has long jumped over 20 feet. He'd probably be a welcomed addition to our track and field team.

Thats 8 guys, to my knowledge, already signed up for the Class of 2017. And they all have a year left in HS.
Also, 1 signed up so far thats heading into his junior year.

Looks like we got a verbal from Paul Bentz of Massapequa for the class of 2017...can't find a ton of info but it looks like he had 3 goals and 2 assists in the Nassau class A Semi's vs Port Washington.

And some video here (#14): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gh5nZkb-JwQ
Pequa made a perfect 10-0 in Class A this year, 15-3 overall, losing to some really great teams. A goal shy of the county title. Bentz returns next year. Is he the younger brother of Stephen Bentz from Hofstra?
Looks like he is also a WR/QB.

He's quite the competitor- bball PG (MVP); football QB/DB/K; lax midfielder (MVP, All County, Captain, started as a freshman). He's so well rounded, he can score, pass, and even picked up 90 GBs last year. Also an honor student and one year left to go!
If you look around the news, some of game stories and the quotes of coaches/opposing coaches indicate that he is a big-play type of athlete.

I like the mix of recruits we are getting both from Long Island and non Long Islanders nice balance. Just want the sports season to begin for real . I think we are going to good in quite few sports this year !

ahhh, Riverhead...not really a lacrosse hotbed but home of one of Stony Brooks greatest athletes ever; Miguel Maysonet

The count for 2017 (that we know of) is up to ten recruits already, with a year to go!

626 1 Bentz, Paul Massapequa NY Massapequa NY Midfield R Stony Brook
658 1 Bitzer, Ryan Riverhead NY Riverhead NY Midfield E Stony Brook
And of course, one already for 2018.
Id say we are pretty even with Hofstra (conservatively); a small step ahead of UA and Bingo (at least for 2017s); and quite a bit ahead of Hartford. For BC, i just dont know the recruits well enough to gauge. St. John's has a great start on 2017s.
Again, this is all based on what's public.
-
Tyler Andreassi is also a 2017 recruit. It may be early but Nagel is doing one hell of a job recruiting, especially local talent.

thanks- just emailed laxpower to have him added.

Tyler has hip surgery last week...6 months of recovery ahead. Not good for a kid in high school.

Spoke with Mr.Andreassi at the UMBC gm and he said Tyler will be ready for fall ball in Sept. Also he said Mike had a slight tear in his meniscus, not to serious should be back soon.

Keep them coming ! Nice future class's coming in.

I think Nagle has the program moving in the right direction. I know some people may look at this past season as a step in the wrong direction, but this was very much a rebuilding year. We have a great duo to build around going forward with Eastwood and Rodgers. Incoming freshman like Bentz and Prestrau are having great senior seasons. I also wouldn't sleep on incoming frosh Ryan Bitzer. I know his lax stats may not look stellar, but he's a stud a three sport athlete from Riverhead In lacrosse, basketball, and football. While riverhead lacrosse may not be the most reputable, they have pretty notable and basketball and football programs where young Mr. Bitzer has excelled greatly. I think he is an under the radar recruit who will surprise a lot of people.

Watched a Yorktown game this weekend and I have to say this kid Presteau is really impressive. He has 63g 20a in 19gms with the state playoffs still to come. His 63g on the season are 2nd only to Roy Cosley in school history for a middie. He is fast and has a rocket of a shot. He really shoots well on the run creating his own offense. Joe Linardi said he is one of the most underrated kids in the country.
-
Presteau made the All American team ta boot...not sure if any other recruits did.
Can't wait to see this kid on the Brook

Prestreau had another 4 goals in the state quarterfinals loss to Niskayuna. Kid looks like a stud.

Ellis is a stud!! This kid has real speed. Would make a great def middie . He has Milican speed or possibly faster. He is also a great DB in football. He has the athletic ability to contribute in both sports. He has what is most important and can't be coached, speed. He was running low 4.5 and high 4.4 forties as a senior in high school. Really nice find for both teams, I thought this kid was underated and under recruited at Garden City.

Abdellatif and Aro i believe are 2018s, is that correct? If so i can move them to the other thread...
-
Just saw inside lacrosse's top 100 freshman list...disappointed to say the least that Brian Prestreau wasn't included. He put up crazy numbers for Yorktown this past season, and did it against some really good competition. Also I don't believe it's been posted yet that Prestreau was the player of the year in the Hudson Valley according to MSG Varsity.
http://www.msgvarsity.com/westchester/2013-all-hv-we-boys-lacrosse-team-1.1496703
-
Without even looking at the list I'm going to say 85% of the kids listed are going to ACC or Ivy League schools. That is how Inside Lacrosse does it.
-
Paul Carcaterra said Prestreau is the real deal and should start right away. His critique never has any bias to it so I will take his word over those hacks at inside lacrosse.
-
Anyone know if Tyler Andreassi is red-shirting? I know the plan was for him to come here and play with his brother but haven't heard anything. He would have been a top 2017 recruit.
-
Prestreau with a goal on 2 shots in his debut with Penn State...so happy Nagle wanted him to play D Mid.

Yeah, scoring a goal to make it 18 - 4 must have been an important one. I hear Prestreau is up for Big Ten Rookie of the Week ;D

Today, the "Great" Prestreau has 0 Goals, 0 Assists, 0 Shots on Goals, 0 Ground Balls in a Penn State loss versus Loyola.
-
Let's not be an ass...nobody said he was the chosen one, but he was their top recruit and he couldn't get out of program quick enough. He would have started for Stony Brook last night with Andreassi out. Could have used him.

Eh, Prestreau put up great numbers senior year, but it's hard to really compare him to a guy like Bitzer who didn't play on a good high school lacrosse team, but was a stand out basketball and football player on good teams. I'd actually be willing to bet Bitzer has a better college career than Prestreau when it's all said and done.
In general I don't blame Nagle at all for Prestreau leaving. I don't think the kid even finished out his semester here. I don't think thats a lacrosse thing.

I'm closing the book on him...he's not a Seawolf

Here is the point funny guy. Since Nagle took over 2 of his top recruits left before the fall was over ( L. Miller & Prestreu ) and another top recruit who was a freshman starter left after a year ( Tom Monzo ). That's not a good trend.

If Prestreau was the main recruit for his grade, why didn't Coach Nagle ever go see him play? I know he went to go see the other two Hudson Valley kids play multiple times. In those two games vs Somers, Brian put up 9g's 3a's against the other freshmen Alex Corpolongo who had 0g 0a.
To put on top of that, taking a kid who scored 67 times his senior year, who was an All-American, Player of the year for Hudson Valley, and the second leading scorer as a Midfielder behind Roy Colsey at the Tradition rich Yorktown High School, and switching him to a D middie is just one of the worst coaching moves anyone could make. I wouldn't blame him for leaving so quickly.
Prestreau is currently the 4th or 5th midfielder at Penn State who is in the Top 10, so he must be doing something right over there.

The Great Prestreau has 2 goals and still 0 ground balls this season.
By the way, Yorktown hasn't beaten Ward Melville since 1984 or 85. I think Yorktown has lost around 24 games in a row to Melville! :P

Does that have anything to do with Prestreau? I don't believe so, he would of probably would of put on a show just like he did to St. Anthony's (6g), Chaminade(2g), Wilton(5g) and to Ridgefield(4g). So what you just stated was useless. Bottom line, he's not the chosen one, but he is better then most kids in his grade. Give him time and he will shine.
At the end of the season, just let me know how it goes when half the freshmen class transfer out. And whats with the 2018 class decommitting? Looks like something should change with the attiude Coach Nagle is showing. Cant be good for a D1 program to have so many kids leave since he's been head coach. Whats it at now, like 9 or 10 kids leave over the past couple of seasons?

Oh, I forgot - he also has 0 assists this season! How desperate was Penn State, they needed a kid to play midfield who couldn't hack it at Stony Brook! Though, Penn State is playing great this season, they have NEVER won NCAA tournament game!
-
I still don't understand why your going at this kid. Is that what your life has come to? To give people a break down of his season?
Hes a shooter. Nothing else to say. They just lost to Denver 15-11, guess what! Prestreau had a goal! He was one for one. Every time his second line midfield group went out on the field, someone scored, so he's gotta be doing something right to be playing at a Ranked D1 team.
Let me get this straight tho, you believe every freshmen that Nagle took in was better then Prestreau? A kid who took his high school team to new levels and reaching a #3 spot in the Tri-State. A kid that if you look at the UnderArmour All-Americans, he probably had more goals then all the midfielders. Only reason he wasn't on that list was because he was committed to Stony Brook.

Get to bed Mr. Prestreau ;D

Not Mr. Prestreau, just a big fan of the kid and of the rest of the freshmen class. Ive spoken with all of them and their all great kids with big futures on and off the field. Personally i thought he was gonna be a huge gain for your program along with Alex Corpolongo and Ryan Mahon. Them with the face-off kid Kyle Rowe, but he's leaving next year also. I thought they were gonna gel together and start a new era and bring your program back to where it should be.
But in the end, when it comes down to it, Nagle needs to figure it out or leave. He will end up driving this program straight into the ground.

Because he wasn't able to make it to more of Prestreau's high school games, and asked him to play defensive midfield?
Seriously best of luck Prestreau going forward, but lets not make Nagle into some kind of monster. He's created pipelines to local high schools and has recruited family and friends of players currently the roster. The program is going to be fine.

Are you saying that Rowe is leaving next year, and if so how do you know.

Not talking about just Prestreau, I'm talking about all the kids who left the program over the past couple of years. Many young studs have left after their freshmen year who could have a huge impact to the success of the team. Ive heard some rumors of what was said during the period of Prestreau leaving. Coach Nagle can't be acting like that, its driving future stars away. Word through the grape vine is that some of the freshmen are not going to be around much longer.

LacrosseGuy, where do you get your information from? You seem to be the only person with inside knowledge of the program?

I can tell you that back in January I was talking to one of the higher profile recruits who transferred out, and he really had nothing bad to say about Nagle. In fact he said he much rather play for Nagle than his current coach.
