A setup option in Louisville’s attack
Hoover looks most comfortable as a setup option in Louisville’s attack. His scoring distribution points to a forward whose principal contribution is helping a teammate finish, though he can also take a scoring chance himself.
The current 18U AA line gives him a meaningful early-season offensive case. The next question is whether that creator-first role remains as effective through a longer schedule.
Performance record
22points in 17 current games
14assists in that span
The scoring record is from Louisville’s current 18U AA games.
Outlook
Griffen ranks #24 overall and #16 among forwards. His current production provides the performance foundation for this placement.
