    Medved is really starting to make waves in the draft pool. Wasn't in my latest rankings, but would expect him to feature prominently post Championships. Great size and power combination, as well as his overhead work.

    McGroder's athleticism has really caught the eye too. Very raw, but high upside kid.
    Cal Twomey has included Medved in his 25 prospects to watch. Which tends to confirm my belief that he's moving out of our draft range.

    In my opinion, the couple of other academy players most likely to improve their draft prospects at the championships, are Price and Pignatelli. If he's high enough up the midfield pecking order, Price could have a couple of games, where he racks up contested possessions, tackles and hits a few forward fifty targets. Pignatelli tends to get hold of the ball when it's in his area and kicks straight once he gains possession. So if he gets good service, he could kick a bag or two.
