Lanese's ability to improvise out of the pocket to make throws was evident, especially breaking tackles at the LOS. Additionally, Lanese can scan the field with great vision going through his full progressions to hit his intended targets. Thereafter, he can make lob throws with accuracy and touch in the corner of the end zones. Impressive ability to stand tall in the pocket and lead his receivers down the field.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/19954258/671ef5484c20845194a41795' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67ccb6bc9b13f"} /--> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Congratulations to our Pirates who were named All Rockland County! <br><br>1st Team:<br>[player_tooltip player_id='1624553' first='TJ' last='Lanese'] <br>Brendan Carlacci <br><br>2nd Team:<br>Anton Omundsen <br>Josh Tobacco <br>Liam Reilly <br>[player_tooltip player_id='1283859' first='Anthony' last='Graziano'] <br>Sean Davin <br>Pat Morrissey <br>Danny Fitzgerald <br><br>Honorable Mention:<br>Ben Raspanti <a href="https://t.co/6cjRhPN80m">pic.twitter.com/6cjRhPN80m</a></p>&mdash; Pearl River Football (@hs_pearl) <a href="https://twitter.com/hs_pearl/status/1874841332797309104?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 2, 2025</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1624495"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67cb916aafe19"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Talented QB that had a heck of a junior season throwing for 1,781 yards with 22 TDs on a combined record of 22-2.
