The only team from Canada in our top 25, Edge has a talented group of kids and is strong positionally across the board. Parolin, a crease attack, has always been great at getting loose balls and capitalizing on time and space away from the ball, Gardner said. Alongside him is a trio of St. Michael’s College School attackmen in Rory Graham (committed to Jacksonville), Carter Begley (committed to Drexel), and Andrew Dalton (committed to Cornell). Gardner pointed out Crawford, who is making the change from defense to offense and has experience in box lacrosse, as a player who he looks to step up in the midfield next to Cook, a raw, athletic middie. They’ll also be joined by Jakson Raposo, another St. Michael’s recruit, who is committed to Johns Hopkins. MacDonell, who was cut from the team before working his way back and into one of the best defensemen in Canada, is part of a backline that also includes Brock Strong (uncommitted). In goal, Edge also splits time among a few players. Josh Gamble is the team’s only full-time goalie, but Drew McGill and Mike Orlando should see some time as well.
