CJ Kirst Leads 2025 PLL Draft Projections

CJ Kirst is projected as the top pick in the 2025 PLL Draft, while Liberty Flames dominate in MCLA Championships.

The 2025 Premier Lacrosse League (PLL) College Draft is set for May 6, 2025, at 7 p.m. ET on ESPN+. This pivotal event will introduce a new wave of talent to the league, shaping team rosters ahead of the season opener on May 30. While the draft may lack the star power of the 2024 class, it promises depth with players ready for professional careers.

In Zach Carey`s final mock draft, CJ Kirst, the NCAA`s all-time goals leader from Cornell, is projected as the top pick for the Philadelphia Waterdogs. His exceptional dodging ability and scoring prowess make him a game-changer. Following him, Andrew McAdorey from Duke is expected to be selected second by the California Redwoods, noted for his versatility and offensive skills.

Meanwhile, the Men`s Collegiate Lacrosse Association (MCLA) National Championships showcased the Liberty Flames dominating the Minnesota Golden Gophers, winning 21-8 after an early tie. Keaton Mohs of Liberty delivered a standout performance with six goals and four assists, tying for the second-most points in tournament history. The championships are taking place in Round Rock, Texas, as the Liberty League announces its 2025 Men’s Lacrosse Awards, recognizing top performers in the conference.
