2021 PLL College Draft Prospects: Attack

Jake Carraway – Georgetown

Jake Carraway, like Tierney, doesn’t quite get the credit he deserves in a draft class surrounded by names like Sowers, Teat and Bernhardt. Carraway is a lethal shooter and has the numbers to back it up. This year through nine games with Georgetown, he’s scored on 35.8% of shots that he has taken.

During his career, Carraway has scored 178 goals in 64 games, including a career high 57 goals in his junior season. He’s gotten better with age too, increasing his offensive output each season. Simply, he’s a big bodied, consistent offensive threat who will add an extra weapon to whatever team gives him an opportunity.

Casey Powell’s Take: He doesn’t have the cache as some of these other names, but Carraway has all the tools: good size, good speed, he can stick shots from the outside. He takes it to the cooker and I love his emotion. Dare I say, he’s Pat Spencer-ish?
