I think you all are looking at the wrong teams to improve this year.
But I’ll let you be surprised in the spring when fca wins it all.
Now this is funny! You must be an FCA parent. We can all see the stats of their first fall tournament. 1-1-1. That team has been trying to rebuild for years. Good luck
Thanks for the chuckle, but FCA isn't going to be a factor in spring HoCo. They may pick up some new players, and I am sure that their current players are growing like fool and getting better, but everybody else is doing the same. Hawks are the overwhelming favorite to win for the umpteenth year in a row. NextLevel has the talent and the depth to match the Hawks, but the Hawks own them mentally, and will beat them (again) when it counts. The wildcard is Crabs, as a PP said, because they will load up on holdbacks and BL boarders, so you may see a brand new team of massive sized players in Crabs uniforms. But Hawks and NextLevel should beat the rest of the division, including FCA, without breaking much of a sweat. For the record I am NOT a Hawks parent and that is my objective assessment - trust me, it will age nicely.
Hard to argue with any of that, but I think Hawks have been in their own echelon for a couple years, and Next level is closer to Crabs, 91 and ML than Hawks. NL played well in HOCO, but their summer schedule was pretty weak. That said... a lot of kids are starting to catch up size-wise to the two historically dominant attackmen on Hawks and NL, and it will be interesting to see if they can maintain that dominance against many defenders who are their size and bigger now.
