Brendan Obloj – M- West Islip should be on this list.
Played in every game as SSDM and ended the last 1/4 of season starting first midfield. Thanks
What about Gavin lamere plainview sophomore varsity lsm 60 gbs on the Season and 30 forced turnovers 2024
Thank you for putting in the effort to compile this list but you have multiple players listed as the wrong positions.
FOGO from Westhampton Beach; Nolan Michalowski. I don’t know how he’s not on this list.
I’m wondering how it’s made bc I go to north shore and if it’s made by stats I had 30 as a middie and think I could be on this list for sure
I am not sure how this list is established. If you can please explain that Process please.my son Thomas Raccomandato an attack man for West Babylon was second on his team in points for the second year.
Lead the team with assists. And did not qualify for some unknown reason. A team ate of his witch is a 2023 made that list and didn’t have nearly the year Thomas did.I hope this isn’t another high school political sight on who you now.
