Notre Dame Lacrosse: Midfielder Sergio Perkovic Becomes Irish’s Highest Draft Pick

Former Notre Dame midfielder Sergio Perkovic will continue his lacrosse career in Boston, after the Bloomington Hills, Mich. native became the 2nd overall pick in the Major League Lacrosse’s annual draft.

Perkovic, dubbed the “Motor City Hitman,” is the Irish’s most decorated player, having been a three-time first team All-American, a team captain, a five-time ACC Offensive Player of the Week and the most prolific goal scorer among Irish midfielders ever.

The Boston Cannons, his new team, are currently in sixth place in the MLL standings, at 2-3. They’ll host the Denver Outlaws on Saturday, and Perkovic is eligible to play immediately.
