After taking a look at a big slate of Saturday’s games, Ohio State’s early start vs Hopkins stood out.
They came out firing, and went hard at the middle of the field with their 4 Out set from up top. Let’s take a look! (THREAD)

High Wing
Here you see the 4 Out look. Very similar to a high pairs look or umbrella look. Isolating off the high wing, the dodger can go under or over. The adjacent teammate is be ready to mirror / pick. Mitchell makes a nice rollback, gets his hands free and scores.

Underneath dodges that don’t create a quality shot can be transferred, or carried through X. Notice the low pair exchanging. After the ball swings a few times back through the X carry, LeClaire takes his opportunity to sweep topside, bearing downhill and turning the corner.
Topside
Mitchell attacks the top foot and sweeps. Both inside pairs players cut down, getting to a mirror and inside spot. An On the Run Hitch forces a poor approach, and Mitchell turns the corner for a shot.
Notice the true "mirror" as it swings back around for the goal!

Early in the 2nd quarter, Mitchell cashes in on a LH sweep in this same look. Both high players press down, no slide comes, and he bears down on a sweep after a LH carry.
The one hand cradle and change of speed is subtle! High percentage looks come in the middle of the field!

Low Wing
Mitchell’s dodge underneath displays a quick forward through X, and a transfer to the wing. After a shot out of bounds, the low wing initiates. A flat approach allows Terefenko to turn the corner w/ a late adjacent slide.
Getting to the middle is the name of the game!

Don't Settle!
One of the few possessions early on that resulted in a low % look for the Buckeyes. Early in a possession, this could be a great opportunity for a rollback after a topside effort (see Mitchell’s first goal), or a transfer through X to get the party started.

Razor Picks!
Jack Myers is a special player, one I’ve been lucky to work with before. Note this razor pick for the shortstick, causing an advantage and a TTC opportunity for his teammate! A simple wrinkle out of a predominantly 4 high look!

Getting to the middle is key. This 4 Out look creates a lot of opportunity to let your horses run, or play right into the 2 man game. Savvy attackman hang around the pipes, and On the Run shooting technique is key! Turn the Corner!
We hope you enjoyed this thread, and are excited to keep watching the Buckeyes are other top offenses and defenses this spring!

Not to mention the subtle backside exchange that helps to "occupy" what would be the HOT defender
