Balsamo plays with a chip on his shoulder a mile wide, blending aggressiveness, tenacity, drive and skill. The lefty is a terrific dodger from all over the field, comfortable dodging from the wing, X or up top. Despite missing running mate Joey Terenzi all summer and Dillon Magee for a chunk of it, he still did an amazing job of finding ways to produce on a consistent basis. Balsamo has an exceptional release, an off-the-charts lacrosse IQ and the ability to elevate the play of those around him, and he does a great job of slithering into tight spaces in front of the cage to finish. He plays good defense and has taken the ball away from a lot of guys, and he has a knack for scoring big goals.
