Checking against GA criteria

GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
The prose meets the reasonably well written criteria.
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
References check out, but this reference[1] contradicts the information in the inforbox.
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
Although the date and place of birth are mentioned in the infobox, they do not appear in the article.

He attended elementary school at Gil St. Bernards. Where is this?

... taking an entrance exam for the Delbarton School ' Where is this?

College career: Did he study anything other than lacrosse at college?

Professional career. There is no real substance here.

However, his National Lacrosse League rights were acquired by the Philadelphia Wings in the 2010 Orlando Titans dispersal draft. What does this mean?

This fails on broadness. This amounts to a few lines of prose thrown together from sports database and few news articles.
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
None used
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
No, I don't feel that this article meets WP:GACR#3 - Broad in its coverage. There is really little substance here, I get no feeling for this person, just a list of achievements and that is it. Perhaps when he has actually played some top level games there will be enough material for a good article, but there really isn't enough there now.
