OUR CAMPS ARE POWERED BY THE PROS

Mikie Schlosser, PLL Star Midfielder – One of the most athletic midfielders to play the position, Mikie’s game combines blistering speed with hard dodging and a team first, move the rock mentality. Mikie is a pioneer of California Lacrosse, paving the way for younger West Coast lacrosse players to play at the highest levels of lacrosse. Mikie was a High School All American out of Davis HS, who went on to star collegiately at DI University of Michigan. His college success has blossomed into an even better pro career in the MLL, NLL and now PLL as one of the best athletes in the league. With skill, resolve, and a team first game, Mikie edged his team, the Waterdogs, to its first PLL Championship in Summer 2022!

Taylor Simmers, Collegiate All American, Champion and Pro – Taylor’s success in the classroom and on the field at Landon School earned him a spot on Princeton’s Men’s Lacrosse Team, where he dominated as an all IVY League, All-American and Scholar All-American Attackman and 2X NCAA Champion. Taylor played internationally for Team Germany in the European Championships, where he was named the tournament MVP, and in the World Cup, where he set a single game assist record. He also played in the MLL for the San Francisco Dragons and NLL for the Philadelphia Wings. As a professional educator and long time lacrosse player and aficionado, he’s simply one of the best coaches in lacrosse.

Brent Adams, PLL Star Midfielder – One of the most dynamic two way midfielders in the professional ranks, Brent’s skillset is highlighted by elite speed, a blistering shot and the ability to shift game momentum with skilled transition play. Brent is a multi-time all star in the pro ranks, and played collegiately at Fairfield University, where he was an All-American and 2X All-League ECAC selection. He’s a seasoned pro, looking to have another breakout season with his Cannon’s teammates this summer.

AJ Mercuiro, University of Denver Star Defender – AJ Mercurio is the very best lacrosse player to ever come from the state of Nevada. AJ graduated from Damonte Ranch in Reno, NV as a multi-time HS All American and 4X all league player. AJ finished his high school career with over 50 goals scored – as a defenseman! Now at University of Denver, a perennial top tier DI program, AJ is a two-time All-Big East Second Team selection, and was recently selected at All-Big East First Team for the 2023 season. More impressive than his illustrious accolades, AJ is a childhood cancer survivor, role model and trailblazer for any young, rising student-athlete. AJ is a true gamebreaker whose elite size (6’3 230 lbs), skill, speed and will to win have professional teams vying to draft him as a top incoming talent.
