HOCKOMOCKSPORTS FIRST TEAM
Ben Harvey – Franklin – Defense
Franklin junior Ben Harvey was a leader for one of the league’s top defensive units. Despite playing some of the top attacking teams in the state, Harvey and the Panthers allowed fewer than nine goals per game this year. It was one of the factors in the Panthers winning a ninth straight league title and reaching the Div. 1 quarterfinal. He was selected as an all-star by the league’s coaches. Franklin coach Lou Verrochi said, “Ben always covered the top attack or middie. He’s a total beast and calls all defensive sets and slide packages. He’s a very cerebral player.”
Luke Davis – Franklin – Attack
Franklin junior Luke Davis put up another impressive offensive season for the Panthers, leading them to a ninth straight league title and a spot in the Div. 1 quarterfinal. One of the three Franklin players to eclipse the 100-point mark this year, the BU-commit and HockomockSports.com Player of the Year (see above) scored 94 goals and dished out 42 assists while earning his second straight All-American nod. He was also voted league MVP. Franklin coach Lou Verrochi said, “Luke is a difficult cover for any pole and he always gets the No. 1. If he gets the early slide he finds the open stick.”
Jayden Consigli – Franklin – Attack
Franklin junior Jayden Consigli built on his breakout sophomore season to help the Panthers win a ninth straight league title and reach the Div. 1 quarterfinal. Consigli scored 78 goals and had 56 assists, as part of a powerful Franklin attack that scored nearly 60 goals more than any other team in the Hock. He was selected as a league all-star and as an All-American. Franklin coach Lou Verrochi said of Consigli, “He’s the best off-ball player we’ve had at Franklin. Jayden is a very accurate shooter and an excellent feeder.”
Justin Alexander – Franklin – FO
Franklin junior Justin Alexander continued to dominate the face-off ‘X’ for the Panthers this spring, making sure the Panthers had plenty of extra possessions for the league’s top attack to take advantage of and helping them win a ninth straight KelleyRex title and reach the Div. 1 quarterfinal. Alexander won 68 percent of his faceoffs this year, despite regularly battling some of the top face-off guys in the state. He was selected as a league all-star. Franklin coach Lou Verrochi said, “From a coaching standpoint, Justin’s our MVP because he gets us so many possessions.”
HOCKOMOCKSPORTS SECOND TEAM
John Walshe – Franklin – Midfield
Franklin junior John Walshe was an all-around performer for the Panthers this season, providing assistance on the face-offs, on the ride, in the defensive end of the field, on man-up and man-down situations, and with his playmaking. Walshe’s efforts helped the Panthers win a ninth straight Kelley-Rex title and reach the Div. 1 quarterfinal. He scored 22 goals and dished out 21 assists this season and was selected as a league all-star. Franklin coach Lou Verrochi said, “John is a very physical player with excellent speed and lacrosse IQ. I’m expecting continued excellence from him next season.”
Tyler Sacchetti – Franklin – Attack
Franklin junior Tyler Sacchetti had a breakout spring and became part of a trio of Panthers to reach the 100-point mark this season, which helped them clinch a ninth straight league title and advance to the Div. 1 quarterfinal. He scored 54 goals and recorded 60 assists this year, breaking the school’s single-season assist record. He was selected as an all-star by the league’s coaches. Franklin coach Lou Verrochi said of Sacchetti, “Many teams made the mistake of not playing him tight. He has great vision and is a tremendous shooter and feeder.”
