Sam has developed himself into a national level defenseman and and person of exceptional character. Our top 50 rank MM 2024 AAA team, lends its success to our defense with Sam as an integral piece.. Able to hold a #1 matchup at bay. Sound Team concept with Team Takeaway and ground ball ability. Sam will be a 4 year varsity football player and two sport captain going into his senior year of High School. A two sport captain as a Junior. Leadership, heart, hard work. Sam has been a blessing to compete with. Sam will be an invaluable asset to any locker room, program, and game day Challenge at the NCAA level. Sam's grades and test scores speak to his Academic Strength. A hard working intellectual on and off the field. I am proud to endorse Sam Hardy knowing that he is prepared for success.
Corey Bulken
Sam, is a new addition to our National team and he immediately made an impact. He's got some snarl in his game and you can tell when he gets his hands on dodgers, he uses his length and frame really well to win his match up. He was responsible off ball and a was accepting of the coaching he got. It did not take long to get a sense of the type of person he is, high character and able to fit in with a new group of teammates easily. He will bring a lot of tools for coaches to with in the college game.
Cory Childs
What separates Sam from the pack is his mentality and dedication to his craft. Not only have we been impressed with his abilities at the national stage, but his maturity and understanding of what it takes to play at the highest level. Sam embodies what it means to be an elite student-athlete. Feel free to contact me directly for more information.
Mike Russo
Sam is a physical defenseman and has the ability to shut down an offensive player from all spots on the field. He plays his angles really well and capitalizes in tight with his frame and power. He is a "team" first type player and helps build a fantastic culture wherever he goes. On the clearing side, he has strong stick work and can quickly create transition opportunities for the offense. Sam has great grades and will be a welcomed addition for many college rosters. Please let me know if you would like more information.
Evan Hylok
Sam is the most coachable player I've worked with. His ability to absorb information and apply it in game situations is unmatched. Sam is capable of playing LSM and Close and he's equally effective at both positions. As a freshmen he started every game at LSM and as a sophomore he was one of our loudest voices and most potent take-away poles on the field. A high lacrosse IQ combined with a hard-nosed mentality for ground balls, Sam will be a welcomed addition to any program. I'm more than happy to discuss Sam and his capabilities further, feel free to reach out.
