It's true that the other teams are improving, but M&D won 2019, 2020, 2023, 2024 and 2025 this weekend. Lax for the Cure didn't allow the 2021 team to enter or they could have won the 2021 division as well. The 2022 team didn't get into playoff because of a goals against tiebreaker with the team that won the championship.
Find another excuse YJ. It's not parity. YJ used to rule this tournament up until 3 years ago when M&D started attending.
M&D doesnt enter the Nationals; why?? cause the kids are aged out. If we played by year born like Soccer and Hockey, then YJ and LI would rule the tourney....thats not an excuse, its a FACT!!!!
Whatever. Keep believing that. My daughter is on M&D and there is one girl with an August birthday and she's a second string defender. Everyone else on the team is on age after the MD 9/1 cutoff.
This is just a myth that Carol Rose and the rest of the LI club owners sell you parents to explain why something like this weekend happens.
The MD teams don't go to Nationals because of when they are. If you honestly don't think M&D and Skywalkers couldn't send good teams there I don't know what to tell you.
Soooo....you talk about a weekend tournament of MD domination, re-tell the lie that your girls are on age, re-tell the story that MD could field a good team for the real Nationals....... wait for it..... but don't go to the Nationals because they are the end of July. Very weak and a big excuse that you MD people think makes sense.
Nationals are a meaningless tournament played after the summer schedule is over with no college coaches. You should be happy the Maryland teams don't go. You guys don't win anything all summer and need something to put on your website to keep charging twice as much as Maryland clubs do for an inferior product. It's not just MD teams that don't go to Nationals. No one goes anymore. Enjoy!! We'll continue to use that time to take our girls on vacations that they deserve before field hockey and soccer gets started.
