Widely regarded as the top defensive prospect in the 2024 College Draft, Ajax Zappitello does a lot of things really well defensively. He can defend on-ball with elite footwork. He’s always in an athletic stance off-ball, ready to slide and help a teammate or…

By Topher Adams | May 16, 2024 Brennan O’Neill had to be the pick.

Eli Gobrecht, who took the most faceoffs on the team last season, will no longer be able to play that role with a pole. Zach Currier will still be able to take some draws, but new head coach Bill Tierney doesn’t want…
