All Gas, No Breaks: Inside the Mind of Dylan Hess
Dylan Hess is the definition of a work-horse midfielder and one of the most electric young talents in modern lacrosse. A Ponte Vedra native who helped deliver a state championship in high school, Hess quickly rose to national attention for his relentless motor, two-way versatility, and refuse-to-quit mentality.
At Georgetown, he became the kind of player every coach dreams about — a dominant transition threat, a lockdown defender, and a clutch playmaker who showed up in the biggest moments. His effort wasn’t just impressive; it was contagious. Teammates fed off it. Opponents dreaded it.
That grind paid off. Hess earned top-prospect recognition, was drafted into the NLL by the Colorado Mammoth, and made waves in the Premier Lacrosse League — even earning a spot in the PLL All-Star Game early in his pro career. Now known for his explosive style and blue-collar mindset, Dylan Hess has cemented himself as one of the hardest-working midfielders in the sport.
He doesn’t just play lacrosse.
He changes the pace, raises the standard, and proves that hustle still matters.
