Caleb "BIG TASTY" Fyock
Meet Caleb “Big Tasty” Fyock — the brick wall in net for Ohio State University Men’s Lacrosse and a fan favorite both on and off the field. Standing tall with lightning-fast reflexes and a flair for the dramatic, Big Tasty isn’t just a nickname — it’s a vibe.
A proud product of Maryland’s powerhouse high school scene, Caleb earned All-American honors, turning heads with his fearless play and next-level saves. Since arriving in Columbus, he’s made an immediate impact in the Big Ten, racking up double-digit save games, stoning elite shooters, and anchoring the Buckeyes’ defense with confidence well beyond his years.
But Caleb’s game isn't the only thing with flavor. Known for his infectious energy, booming voice, and locker room leadership, Big Tasty brings the heat whether he's in the crease or hyping up his squad. He’s the kind of guy who makes saves look easy and fun look mandatory.
On game day, one thing’s for sure: when Big Tasty’s between the pipes, goals are not on the menu.
