NLL Insider

He’s found himself on two tickets that don’t get the biggest crowds in the game, but after suiting up for both San Jose and New York, for those that have had the chance to see him, know that Titans transitional stud, Jarett Park, has one of the slickest two way games goin’ on in the sport today.

Park’s stock went through the roof this past winter, helping lead an explosive New York two-way game that snowed some of the best in the bizz in ‘08.

His speed is pretty blinding, as long as his hair is outta his face, which allowed Park to rank within the league’s top 10 in loosie pickups. Jarett’s first step is one of the best in the sport, already ten feet past the opposition’s O guys when they finally realize Park just picked their pocket.

In fact, his LB per game numbers had him behind only Geoff Snider, Brodie Merrill and Steve Toll. It was some of the most impressive loosie numbers we’ve seen from an American in years. His almost ten LB’s a game in ‘08 was even better than the solid digits Jay Jalbert put up in his stellar ‘06 season.

Park might not come close to the scoring touch Jalbert brought to indoor ball, but he does bring a lot of the same elements Jay did when he was tearing it up with the Mammoth prior to exiting the game due to a concussion.
