       Dane Reda to Stony Brook
       Dane Reda's introduction to playing for Team 91 Crush was
       intense, to say the least.
       "In my first game, I didn't get on the field much, but I just
       watched and my neck kept snapping back and forth because of how
       fast the ball was moving," said the Mattituck midfielder. "It
       was like watching a ping pong game."
       His "welcome to Crush" moment, though, was a little bit harder
       on him.
       "(Crush defenseman and Maryland commit) Jack Schirtzer threw a
       rusty gate on me, and Coach (Joe) Spallina just goes, 'you don't
       see that at Mattituck, do you?'" Reda said.
       Not often, though to be fair, not many defensemen in the country
       land as many big-time checks as Schirtzer does. Since that time,
       Reda learned on the fly what you need to do in order to compete
       with potentially the best team in club lacrosse history, and it
       helped elevate his game into a next-level midfielder. The
       Mattituck standout posted 19 goals and 27 assists this spring,
       but the wheels were already in motion for his development before
       that as he continued to get acclimated to the pace of play.
       When the new style of play, complete with a shot clock, was
       introduced to college lacrosse last spring, it meant good things
       for Reda, given his style of play. The two-way standout made his
       bones in transition and isn't a stranger to the defensive end of
       the field, and his offensive chops were already there. Even
       though most of his teammates had already committed, he stayed
       patient and weighed his options. When the right opportunity
       presented itself, he pounced on it.
       "I went to Stony Brook a week ago and I talked to the coaches on
       campus, and their philosopdhy was spot-on with what I wanted to
       hear," Reda said. "On my way home from the visit, I was thinking
       about it and thought that it was the place that I wanted to be.
       I didn't make the decision until a couple of days later, but it
       was the place for me."
       Reda opted to commit to the Seawolves and new head coach Anthony
       Gilardi, joining Crush teammate Tommy Dolciotto in the Stony
       Brook class and becoming the 20th Crush player to commit, all to
       Division I schools.
       "Academically, it's a really good school and I want to study
       either physical therapy or athletic training," Reda said. "The
       campus was nice and the facilities were awesome, and the coaches
       are amazing. It's great to be coming in with a new coaching
       staff because you can make close connections with all of them.
       We're all going to be in the same boat and it'll be a new
       experience for me, but we're going to make the best of it and
       hopefully do well."
       Reda saw his Crush teammates fly off the board to the top
       schools in the country, and while he was ecstatic for them to
       find a home, he knew that he had to be patient to find the right
       fit. At Mattituck, he's the go-to guy, and for Crush, he's part
       of the machine that makes up the top team in the country, so
       finding the right balance between how to play for both teams was
       also instrumental.
       "At a small school, we don't have the insane talent that's on
       Crush, so we have a slower style of play, so that's how I used
       to play," Reda said. "When you're with Crush, you play so fast,
       so it accelerated my game and made me a lot better. When I
       watched my teammates getting picked off like crazy, I was, like,
       'that's great for you guys, and when my time comes, it'll come.'
       There was some question as to where I'd find a school to play
       at, but I'm just so happy to be going to Stony Brook."
       Reda credited a combination of coaches for his development, too.
       Learning from three different head coaches in high school was
       monumental for him and his development.
       "(Mattituck coach) John Amato helped cement the style of play
       that he wanted from me and asked me to be as consistent as
       possible," Reda said. "(2020 Orange coach) Jeff Capri helped me
       with my confidence and he showed me that I could compete at a
       high level, and Coach Spallina helped me see the game a
       different way. He taught me that the 'one more' pass is always
       there, and you have to know where you're going to move the ball
       before the person who has the ball passes it to you."
       For Spallina, seeing one of his late-rising players reach such a
       high level is pretty thrilling, too, especially considering the
       fact that the Seawolves' women's coach will have a chance to see
       Reda play pretty often.
       "I think that Stony Brook got a rising star in Dane," Spallina
       said. "His improvement and balance in his game over the past
       year have been incredible. The thing about Dane ius his ability
       to do so many different things at a high level, which makes
       players so marketable at the next level. I'm so excited for him
       to have found a great local home and I can't wait to watch him
       do great things at Stony Brook."

       [quote]Dane Reda, midfield, Mattituck (N.Y.) / Team 91 Crush –
       Highlights.
       Reda is one of the few remaining uncommitted players from the
       Crush squad, but that won’t last if he keeps playing the way he
       did this weekend. With Joe Spallina‘s squad losing a couple of
       middies to injury, Reda stepped up big-time, making a bevy of
       nice plays in transition. He’s noticeably bigger and faster, and
       he looked more poised in tough situations. Reda managed to get
       his stick on a handful of tough ground balls, too.[/quote]
