Two future ND lax players were on display this weekend in DC

There was a faux national HS lax championship tournament held in DC between four nationally ranked teams - St. Johns, Taft, Culver, and G-Town Prep. St. Johns took care of G-town Prep and Taft beat Culver to play last night in the championship. Taft won being led by three future ND players - Thomas Ricciardelli, Jeffery Ricciardelli and Chris Kavanaugh (yes, he is the youngest brother). Ricciardelli looks very smooth. Kavanaugh is going to struggle some in college. He is on the smaller and while he can make assists not sure he is quick enough to overcome his size when playing top end Dmen. His other issues is that he talks a ton of needless (and some very dumb penalties. In 2 games he had 4 1 minute penalties (at least 3 were slashes). Thomas Ricciardelli was the goalie for Taft and probably had 20 saves last night. St. John's had a ton of great looks but he did phenomenal job stopping some very tough shots.
