Pat Snow
Antonio is an all around great player for our program. He can fill many shoes from midfield to attack, can take draws, as well as play strong in the defensive end of the field. He is a very coachable young man and was selected as a team captain by his teammates and coaches. He would fit the mold for many programs. Any college coach would be lucky to have a guy like Toe on their roster.
Bailey Walsh
Antonio is a very well rounded lacrosse player and athlete. Speed is his number one trait which he uses well on both sides of the ball as well as in transition. If not on the offensive side, Toe is capable of shutting down dodgers, pushing the ball in transition, and great decision making. He is very smart with the ball and crafty off ball. A great teammate and leader, Toe would be a great addition to any roster and will be coachable and produce.
