We’re finally off and running with the first NLF class of 2024 player rankings.

It’s a testament to the depth of this class that more than 100 players received consideration for the rankings, which feature the top 60 players in the country. As the class continues to make itself known, we will expand our rankings to include more and more players, particularly after their big recruiting summer.

Players from all over the country are eligible for the rankings. That’s regardless of whether or not they play for an NLF club. Rankings are compiled after extensive analysis from club coaches, high school coaches and other prominent figures in the lacrosse world. We’ll be counting down to No. 1, continuing with the No. 2 player in the class.

2. Luke Hublitz, defense, Brunswick (Conn.) / Eclipse

It doesn’t take long to notice Hublitz on the field. At 6-3, 190 pounds, he’s already built like an ACC defenseman. He made Brunswick’s varsity as a freshman despite the Bruins having the best defense in the country. As a sophomore, he starts on the best defense in the country. Hublitz was an all-star at the NLF at IMG, as well as the One Percent, and he was fantastic in last summer’s NLF National Championship game.

He might be the most versatile defensive player in the class. Some see him as a potential LSM in college, while others prefer him down low. Either way, he’s the total package. He throws checks to hurt people and his slap check is his preferred takeaway check. Hublitz moves well, is smart on his slides and makes a few plays every game that jump off the page. He covers a ton of ground, uses his strength and power to bully attackmen and can run by guys in the open field.

You see this?

This is not normal. Luke Hublitz is a mutant. An animal. A monster. He will be a priority recruit for everyone.

Hublitz was also a guest on the NLF Insider Podcast, where he broke down his time at IMG, the upcoming summer and much more.
