Lacrosse Reference has High Point returning 94-percent of its defensive production. High Point’s defense, like its offense, returns most of its impact players. We aren’t in the business of posting scrimmage goals but c’mon this is awesome #KTS x #GoHPU /BpcbvUdoon Clearly, High Point’s offense revolves around Nolting’s ability to draw slides but also find open players cutting around the goal. Graduate attackman Sean Coughlin cuts a similar profile to Mayea.

As his advanced statistics show – 25 th percentile in assist rate, 95 th percentile in shots on goal, and 98 th percentile in shooting percent – Mayea does his damage in close to the goal. Attackman Brayden Mayea put up 42 points with 37 of those being goals as a freshman last season. Kevin Rogers led the Panthers with 38 goals last season and is a big midfielder who gets downhill and shoots on the run. On the whole, High Point’s offense routinely turns the ball over on more than 40-percent of its possessions, which places High Point in the bottom-half of the nation for turnovers.Īlong with Nolting, the Panthers return nearly 83-percent of their point scorers from 2021. However, like the rest of High Point’s offense, Nolting is turnover prone, averaging over 4 turnovers per game. Like High Point’s offense on the whole, Nolting is an accurate shooter who will put many of his shots on goal.

He will spot feed behind-the-back, shovel, and one-handed passes to cutting teammates. He has led the Panthers in scoring and assists in each of his four seasons while only leading the team in goals during the shortened 2020 season. The former SoCon Player of the Year and four-year, first team All-SoCon attackman poses challenges for defenses with his size – six foot, two-inches and 210 pounds – and savvy stick skills. When discussing High Point’s offensive players, fifth-year senior Asher Notling is the starting point.

High Point entices teams to get into a run-and-shoot game where its elite offensive finishers put pressure on teams to keep up with the scoring pace. In fact, High Point’s nationally 25 th -ranked pace of play last season was markedly down from the 20 pace of play rankings of fourth and fifth, respectively. That number is up from the previous two seasons where the Panthers averaged under 28 seconds of possession before shooting. Strap in for an entertaining game on Saturday.Īccording to the lacrosse analytics website Lacrosse Reference, High Point averages just under 32 seconds of possession before taking a shot. However, that 2020 season debuted a more fluid style of lacrosse for the Terrapins, one that would carry the Terps to the 2021 national championship game and appears to be the style of play that program will continue this season. The go-go Panthers play an exciting style of lacrosse that prior to the 2020 season, the Terps would have been content to slow down. That changes this Saturday with a visit from a High Point program against whom, if you believe in coincidences, the Terrapins opened that ill-fated 2020 season. The second-ranked Terrapins have not played a non-conference regular-season game since the COVID-truncated 2020 season.
