Duke Notre Dame UVA Michigan UPenn x2 players Georgetown Boston Yale
I'm pretty sure any family would be proud to have that as a start for their club team....certainly more are just on the cusp of committing.
Congrats to those Team 91 players. Below are list of Turtles & Express 2017 commits.
13 Turtles so far- Hopkins 3 players Harvard 2 players Fairfield 2 players Maryland Bucknell UPENN Mich UNC Duke
2 Express 2017 players so far- UNC Cornell
Turtles commitments can not be counted as they are a separate invite only. What bo you have now? Pretty much nothing!
Turtles are part of Express and have been for years. They were early to the recruiting game and had an excellent coaching strategy (bringing in outside coach who didn't have a kid on the team). Certain parents who have KIDS on the Turtles can say whatever they want about "we did this on our own, we don't need express, etc." but anyone that knows anything about youth lacrosse knows that you can't replicate the Turtles situation again because of the success that Express, Team 91, etc. has had. And there has been turnover on the Turtles, and they have lost games as they get older. But to try and say that the Turtles aren't truly part of Express is a ridiculous statement.
Could not disagree more. The express can't replicate the Turtles success in other grades because A they don't care, B they're all too egotistical to try. The are concerned with the money each team and grade brings in. period
Above poster sounds stupid. There hasn't been another team like the Turtles at any organization with the exception of Team 91 Crush, and that team dynamic/composition is very different - Turtles were balanced and Crush has 3-4 best players in their age group that dominate. Igloo is best team in 2021 age group but they have strong competition and don't blow out the other teams. So explain why you "couldn't disagree more?" Your post doesn't do that statement justice.
