# Nike CEO 2 Lacrosse Heads

The Nike CEO 2 lacrosse head builds upon the success of the original CEO while targeting ambitious faceoff midfielders and offensive players. It features a shortened throat creating closer hand placement for increased power and control during faceoffs, an aggressive Scoop designed for easier ground ball pickups from any angle, and a high-pinch profile ensuring crisp passes and laser-focused shots when transitioning to offense.

The CEO 2 seamlessly integrates into Nike's lacrosse legacy. While Nike entered the sport later than some competitors, it quickly made a name for itself with innovative and high-performance gear. The CEO 2 combines proven features from the original with modern design elements. The CEO 2 remains a popular choice for players seeking faceoff dominance and offensive prowess.


**Perfect head for:** faceoff midfielders and attackmen


### Key Features Include



* An aggressive scoop for ground balls while attacking or dominating the faceoff
* A shortened throat creates closer hand placement, generating power and control
* Flex Zones and stiff shoulders add strength and stability 


### Top Competitor Comparisons: the [StringKing Mark 2F](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/string-king/mark-2f/l7515) and the [ECD Weapon X](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/east-coast-dyes/weapon-x/l10504)

In the face-off circle, the Nike CEO 2 carves a niche between the StringKing Mark 2F and the ECD Weapon X, catering to players with different face-off styles. While the Weapon X prioritizes raw power and leverage with its aggressive design and stiff construction, the CEO 2 strikes a balance between power and control. Its mid-stiff pocket and wider face shape offer strong clamps and a good ground ball feel for contested situations. On the other hand, the Mark 2F is a specialist designed for pure ground ball dominance with its angled scoop and stiffer build. Its shorter throat provides increased leverage, but its lack of versatility might not suit players who need to adapt to different face-off situations. 


### Progression:

The CEO lacrosse head series features three models: the CEO, the CEO 2.0, and the CEO 3.0. Here's a breakdown of their progression:

[Nike CEO](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/nike/ceo/l721): 



* The original Nike CEO head was designed for elite offensive players.
* It gained popularity among face-off specialists due to its optimal stiffness and unique flex point, offering an advantage in securing ground balls and winning draws.
* The head featured a high and wide scoop, well-suited for mid-pocket stringing styles.

[Nike CEO 2:](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/sticks/heads/nike/ceo-2-2/l11445) 



* An updated version of the original
* It retains the strengths of its predecessor, including the optimal stiffness and a high, wide scoop.
* Modernized design and improved functionality compared to the original CEO.

[Nike CEO 3](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/lacrosse/heads/nike/ceo-3/l352849):



* Building on the success of the previous models, the CEO 3 prioritizes face-off specialists even more.
* It features a shortened throat design for closer hand placement, enhancing power and control during face-offs.
* A zero-friction scoop for easier ground ball pickups from various angles, aiding offensive plays.
* Updated flex profile to provide face-off players with multiple options for controlling the draw efficiently.


### What people are saying (edited for brevity and clarity)

PROS



* I bought two sturdy and flexible Nike CEO 2 lacrosse heads for the face-off. They are well-built and can withstand a lot of punishment.
* Really nice head. The ball stays in the pocket till you shoot. Provides clean, accurate shots.
* Fantastic at the X. It's reliable and durable, and the pointed scoop helps to increase accuracy. I've been using it for two years now. It's definitely a good pick-up for any offensive-minded player.

CONS



* Hybrid flexes like this head may have issues with spooning, but it's still better than the original CEO. 
* The scoop is not great. It’s pointed so if the ball is not right in the center of the head, the ground ball will not work. Also, the head gets stuck in the ground if you're going on an aggressive angle. 
* The plug in the head creates a wobble on the shaft. I’ve broken 3 carbon shafts in 3 games in the same spot because the plug in the stick wedges and snaps the carbon.


### Expert Review (by [Allen Melick](https://sidelineswap.com/locker/EmpireSports)) 


With the CEO 2, Nike tried to step up the model slightly. They made the plastic more durable, so it would rebound a bit easier and hold its shape better than its predecessor. They reworked the scoop so you could win it forward to yourself more easily. They reworked the throat of the head so you could pinch and pop it backward without the head pinching too much. It's a head made for a faceoff guy.

Trout

### Expert Notes
Mike Trout knows his way around a baseball field, and his signature cleat series shows
why players should follow in his footsteps. The newest Nike Force Trout 8 cleat release
includes three brand new Zoom Air Units, which allow for angelic (see what I did there?)
comfort, balance, and acceleration. Yet many of my college teammates wore the Trout
7’s, released in 2021, and swore that they’re the best cleats that money can buy.
Whichever Trout cleat you prefer, you’re going to receive the same maximum support,
breathability, and unique look that Nike and Mike Trout have emphasized with every
cleat release since his Nike Lunar Vapor Trouts first became available way back in
2014. Take the Trout route, and add the superstar’s cleats to your in-game arsenal.
