How to Improve Stick Skills as a Longpole (Lacrosse Guide)
Lacrosse
Catching and throwing is one of the most basic skills as a defender, yet many don't fully know the proper way to do it. In fact, every single freshman defender at Maryland has to relearn how to catch and throw with the proper mechanics when they step onto campus.
In this video, Matt Dunn and Maryland All-American defenders AJ Larkin and Will Schaller walk through how they are taught to handle a longpole, including how to catch and throw and switch hands efficiently as high-level college players.
