Former Syracuse lacrosse great pointed recruit on journey toward impact role with Orange

Syracuse, N.Y. -- Ryan Powell's contributions to Syracuse lacrosse continue long after his career ended.

The former all-time great's latest big assist to the program comes in the form of a freshman midfielder who could wind up as the most impactful newcomer on this year's team.

That's Tucker Dordevic, who took a long journey to get here but is making the trip look well worth it.

Dordevic hails from Portland, Ore. As a youngster he was coached by Powell, who lived in that area at the time and was heavily involved in establishing youth clinics there.
