91, Igloo, Legacy, Express, should be destinations for top kids. After those, Shore, Rebels, Moose, then the B teams of those above. If looking for a lax team for training purposes, Turtles, but not serious yet, maybe LI Jesters, but not that serious and , more of a town team. Most top end talent will merge to first batch as they get close to World Series.

Please tell me the Madlax Defectors arent coming back? What’s the excuse now goalie dad? You blame the coaches, the kids, the parents but with the DCE D begging their way out, who will protect the net? Where is your grass greener? Golf?

They lost their lil FOGO to Ex East. Their FOGO situation, is a situation. They had talent show up to tryouts, but only took 4 kids? Friend group much? Ex east plays the daddy kid…he couldn’t actually make a move/run towards the goal when the sole defender FELL DOWN Flat! Real programs don’t have daddy coaches, end of story. Because their BF play over everyone. Did the 91 goalie go to the turtles, or was that the 30 kid—he’s good!

Not a tough schedule. LOL!
Smithtown East Bulls coming in at number 23 according to LILj. Mount Sinai was ranked 21 in same ranking. The Bulls were 10-5 in the regular season last year and got into the playoffs as a five seed where they defeated both fourth seeded Commack and top seeded Ward Melville to make it all the way to the Suffolk Class A County Finals where they gave the reigning two-time Long Island champion Northport Tigers everything they had where their season came to an end.
This season so far SE girl has 79 goals 38 assists for a total of 117 points, which is leading all of Long Island.
SE girl had 6G4A vs Longwood. 5G3A vs Floyd, 5G4A verse Northport, 4Goals vs Melville etc... all top teams... Face guard with a backer in every game!
I think Northwestern knew what they were doing when the picked her up after her performance last season. Northwestern knew what they were doing? Go back to the 2023 class and see how those leading scorers did at the next level this year. You may be surprised. Nothing surprising there. Most top HS players do not get significant playing time as freshman. There is a lot involved such as upperclassmen ahead of you, injuries, portal. Any girl who gets to play even a little as Freshman is lucky because some don’t even touch the field. You can’t score goals if you’re not playing.I know one girl who was a top HS player, but hardly played this year at a top 20 school. She was not happy and entered the portal. She currently has 4 official visits set up to other top 20 schools. I don’t necessarily agree with that because I think things change dramatically as a sophomore when you are in line for a starting position or at least a playing position. That’s why it’s so important to pick the best school and not necessarily the best lax program. Northwestern is a program that is graduating a lot of starters, so there is a chance that a freshman might play there, however, there are also a lot of talented players that have been patiently waiting there tern as well as the portal, so you never really know what will happen. This goes for all schools. Exhibit A: Look no further than last years northwestern freshman #25 who Started all 22 games ... Totaled 53 goals and 17 assists, was third on the team with 56 draw controls That girl is a rare exception. She was able to fill a unique role where all of the attention was on two of the best to ever play. Good for her, but not typical. Reading comprehension isnt strong in SE? (Assuming the same anonymous is the same person) One minute you say most top HS dont get playing time as college freshman then when presented with exhibit A you are now backtracking in the next breath by saying the girl is rare exception. This isnt BK you cant have it your way I made the first comment, not the second. So you can retract the SE reading comprehension statement. SE player is a great HS player, but so are all the girls getting recruited to top 20 teams. Some get lucky and have opportunities to play as freshman and most don’t. It’s going to be a big reality check for most who need to learn to be part of something bigger than themselves. With Floyd out and SE out, I think the top player in Suffolk needs to go go SE, just like it should have last year. Only other player worthy is Northport do it all senior who is fantastic! All good. My bad. Retracted and withdrawn. With majority of keyboard tough guys being anonymous (including myself) its hard to tell who is arguing with whom.

Looks Like true is adding another team in Maryland. True HOCO. 29 a younger. I am guessing their business model is working. Wonder which team they bought. Some kind of power struggle between the VA families and the MD families? VA is claiming teams success do MD has to travel more. Or there is nothing out there, so they are staking claim? This has nothing to do with True Chesapeake.

The "F" in FCA stands for fake.
Watch the behavior of the coaches on their sidelines and at FCA High. I’ll pray for you. ...And then belittle kids and berate refs just for making a call you don't like. Good example is worth more than hollow prayer. Not all the teams are the same. Some coaches are good and some are bad. You can not judge and entire program by one age groups coaching. I have a kid on the 2028 team and one on the 2030 team and have nothing but good experiences HILARIOUS! Because you are the chosen team you nimwit You sound angry. If you don’t want your kid to play there don’t take him. It’s been great for our family. Not sure what upset you so much. I’ll reach out to the big guy for you.

I thought the #4 seed bracket was up for grabs and congratulations to Florida for advancing. All the other brackets had no surprises. Not sure it’s good for the sport to see the same teams year in year out. That discussion for another day.

Def did not see Stepincrap taking down Iona in such dominant fashion.....at IP no less. Coaches win or loss? IP over rated? Took them lightly? Congrats to the Step Seniors and Coach Goldman. Deserving bunch. This has to be one of the strangest weeks of Westchester Lacrosse in a long while.

91 is top in most of those age groups and year over year get better, so your argument is essentially a load of @ChillLaxin.
2029 - 91 Chaos - Most likely top LI team in WS, prob lose to eclipse in the final
2030 - 91 Cyclones - Top 1/2 teams in the country
2031 - 91 Titans - Worst team in the history of 91, need new coaching staff
2032 - 91 Valor - def in the top 2/3 teams in LI, will get better next year
2033 - 91 Nitro - Top team in LI
And for the record, Express doesnt care about teams below 7th grade, money from younger teams supports older teams

Who did they lose to that they shouldn’t have? It’s all teams ranked higher than them. Crush wasn't ranked higher when the season started. CCL probably shouldn't have had a 6-2 lead last weekend either if M&D was firing on all cylinders. The PP is saying that M&D shouldn't be competing or beating teams ranked ahead of them now? Strange take for a club that wants to compete at the top. M&D went from beating Hero's and Coppermine, to competing, and now to losing. Crush was ranked behind and now is ahead with Pride at 8. Is the attitude that whatever team is ranked ahead should win? Doesn't look like improvement. Taking a stab...it's gotta be the culture and the coaching for this M&D team. Recent pickup dad is not happy again! 2nd team that he’s been heard complaining about coaching and her role. Hear they are looking around again. Be on the lookout Heros ! Can’t wait to see how it works out at MCD for her ! Time to sit down and zip it dad! They won’t fire the coach for you MnD on MnD crime to start the weekend. Popcorn popping for this show.

[quote=Anonymous]What do you think of teams like U. Of Delaware, Drexel and Temple? There seems to be many middle to lower ranked programs that offer opportunities to play somewhat competitive lacrosse while getting a good education. ummm - Drexel finished the regular season rankings at #20. They're not mid or lower ranked.

91 owns this age group. There are only 1-2 kids on igloo who could start on 91. Do Rebels have a team in this group? I’ve only seen igloo and 91 compete, rest aren’t very good. Now that igloo coach was fired, express and shore will have an influx of bad players. Circle of LI youth lax. 91 running the show early on Clear troll knowing rebels are like 5-0 vs 91 this year. I’ll take the bait.

My youngest is a 24. I can tell you the whole reason AS came in to existence is because AA was so political. It always had the same evaluators, same club and school coaches, same old club bullcrap. American select came along and offered non coach evaluators. It's not a perfect system but AA has always been political
