Brett Hughes '06- 2005

Brett was one of the top defenseman in New England in 2006 as he terrorized attackman and midfielders with his speed and athleticism and toughness. Brett was always assigned to the other team's top offensive player no matter where they played on the field, and Brett had the versatility to play anywhere. Brett was also a groundball machine who led many a fast break after clearing the ball successfully. Brett was highly recruited by a number of DI programs including Navy, but settled on UPenn where he started getting significant playing time even as a freshman. He became a starter as a sophomore and one of Penn's key defensive players.
