Varello Set for Return
4/16/2020 9:35:00 AM | Men's Lacrosse
Syracuse finished 2020 with the fifth-best faceoff win percentage in the country. In 2021, the group responsible will remain intact.
Senior Danny Varello announced that he'll be taking the opportunity to pursue a fifth year at Syracuse, following the NCAA's ruling that spring sport student-athletes impacted by their seasons being halted due to COVID-19 could retain their eligibility from the year.
Â
Individually, Varello finished 12th-nationally in faceoff percentage, winning over 63-percent of restarts. The senior split time with junior Jakob Phaup (.679) and Nate Garlow (6-of-6), to help the Orange finish the shortened 2020 season winning over two-thirds of faceoffs.
The other player to announce his decision to date was Nick Mellen. Already a fifth-year senior, the two-time All-American has elected not to pursue a sixth season in Orange.
