How Penn Shut Down The BEST Player in College Lacrosse

Duke attackman Brennan O'Neill is the best player in college lacrosse, but he looked oddly human in an upset loss on March 1. This video will show how three major factors - including the performance of Penn defenseman Brendan Lavelle - shut down the No. 1 player in the country.

Who is the leading candidate for the Tewaaraton Award right now?

connor shellenberger

It's still way to early

[@nayr497]

@@tobydraper5684 How old is he now? Five years of high school, I think. A redshirt year, a covid year. I can't WAIT to get all the 25 year old dudes out of college lacrosse. This is the last covid year. I was still 21 during my senior season. MASSIVE difference between an 18 year old freshman and a 24 year old RR+Covid Senior. Even between a 21 yo and a 24 yo. Tyler Carpenter on Duke turns 24 in May. I swear the guy has been playing for Duke since 2010. He's hands down the best ground ball between the boxes in a swarm guy I've ever seen, but jeez, Tyler. PLEASE get out of college already.

[@FightNightFanaticsMMA]

Weather definitely played a huge impact. Can't get separation if you can't put your foot in the ground and change direction without slipping. Still kudos for #46 for making plays regardless of circumstances.

[@Abundant_Lax]

maybe Duke needs some new cleats for muddy fields? maybe a gofundme to buy them some new shoes...ha ha

[@FightNightFanaticsMMA]

Lacrosse needs some new cleats for muddy fields as a whole! lol@@Abundant_Lax

[@quickcuts3000]

the q collar squeezed his brains out

[@davidlovesrunning]

LOL

LOL

[@carterstroud270]

Brennan is a amazing player, UPenn’s defense was just better. He’s still one of the best players in the country.

[@lax_nuggets_.]

No I don't think so I think it was the weather UPenn and duke need a rematch

[@nayr497]

Someone recently tried tell me it's not called UPenn. When the Air Gait happened...it was against UPenn and I'm glad to see other folks still calling them UPenn.

[@yomama75]

Gotta love NC weather. Highschool games getting canceled left and right.

[@andrewleblanc2449]

do people understand that some guys just have off days as well, no one can have a career day every single time they play

[@dannydarienzo3743]

No ppl don't realize the best players in all sports have off games once in a while. It's just jelousy ppl wish they could play half as good as this kid.

[@Ndfourlife]

He’s good but Pat Kav is arguably better. Yes, I’m bias. ☘️

[@dannydarienzo3743]

What???? He's one of the best in the world which included pros that he was MVP playing along pros in world lax this past summer. He is the most dominant player in college and will be dominant in the PLL starting this summer too.

[@adamduffy1041]

This aged well

[@Ndfourlife]

Notre Dame seems to do it every time.

[@glennkrzeminski7539]

What I see is good defense and capitalizing on sloppy offensive play. You can’t run a yard off your pick. If they switch off or double team you should get a favorable matchup or a roll to the net. Sometimes the rain will expose who’s been getting by on talent vs fundamentals. I see a defense of crazed dogs. Sic’em boys!

[@30nabster]

"The Best" would shoot better and not get stripped. Sorry. Over hyped.

[@30nabster]

or brought down by rain 🤣🤣

[@evyatar2106]

This guy is going to be the goat. Nobody has ever got to his record. Watch his performance at the mens world championship where he got the mvp!!! At 21 yo

[@dannydarienzo3743]

Over Hyped I mean was just a monster in the worlds this past summer with a team of all Pro Lacrosse players. U wish u had half his talent he ridiculous. Every player can have a bad game. All the best have bad games it happens.

[@yomama75]

You’d say this about Kavanaugh too right? After he got locked up by the freshie from Georgetown.

[@garfield6297]

This is an unbelievably dumb comment. He most certainly is the best. He can body just about every defenseman and his speed with ball control is undeniable. Match that with his ability to sting just about any corner he wants on the run. He is downright the best in college right now.

[@LayOReyesURL]

Can we getta bigger cage ?

[@Jason-ee3yl]

Zawada messes up his flow
