Ohio Boys Lacrosse Watch List

Summer is over. Fall ball is here. Lacrosse Playground is here to be your one-stop shop to prepare you for the 2024 Midwest lacrosse season. We’ll start by looking at some top 2024 and 2025 high school boys’ and girls’ lacrosse players. Last week, we started in Illinois.

Now, we head to Ohio. With lacrosse hubs in Cleveland, Cincinnati, and Columbus, Ohio is home to some of the Midwest's deepest and most talent-rich talent.

We consulted with high school coaches, club programs, and various online recruiting sites to compile our list. Don’t see your name on the list? Leave a comment, include a highlight video, and your commitment. You can also use it as bulletin board material as the off-season ramps up.

Two Wolves Performance Drill

Speaking of off-season prep, follow Coach Jack of 2 Wolves Performance for tips on improving your lacrosse IQ and skill. "Catch it at your ear." That is a staple if you come to one of my practices.

Where your players catch the ball provides them with options to make quicker decisions. Coach Jack provides some great pointers to help players put themselves in a position to succeed.
