You all keep talking about whole clubs and regions and this and that. It is one team. One age group. And yes they r a top 5 team. Get over it already. Why is it so hard for you people to understand and accept? The college coaches have.
Who have they beat in championship format tournaments? Never made it out of the pool in lax for the cure, how did national draw go?
You people are funny. Have never played in lax for the cure in the summer. So you are correct. They have never been an oh so significant "championship format" tournament at Lax For the Cure. Weird that you think they have. At National Draw, the only time this 2019 team played in it was this year. They were missing their best player (Notre Dame) and had a roster of 22. Again, you people don't seem to understand the point. The club doesn't play these tournaments to win them. Wish they did, but not how they operate. Treat every one of them like showcases. You can keep beating your chests over these 20 minute championship games if you want. It's fine. The college coaches think of ME 2019 as a top 5 team. It's really all that mattered/matters.
As for the poster above on commitments, the club doesn't post them. The girls and their families have generally chosen the best academic schools they could, sometimes at the expense of the very best lax schools. At least 5 girls were offered at UNC for instance, none chose there. Where have they chosen so far?
Notre Dame, Stanford, Northwestern, Northwestern, Northwestern, Duke, Princeton, Harvard, BC, Vanderbilt, Richmond, UMASS and there may be a few others I'm not aware of.
Likely several more ivy commits coming and some other very good places. Ultimately this whole discussion is silly. These girls, whether you think they are good lax players or not, are getting amazing college opportunities partly because of their hard work on the lax field. [/quote]
You are the one who is making this discussion silly by continuing to insist that your daughter's team is in the hypothetical "Top 5" in the country. Hard to understand why that is so important to you, but I hereby declare ME 2019 to be #4 in the country. Feel better now? [/quote]
I'm guessing national draw didn't go so well...who are you putting as your top 3?
