Back and forth game here.

Good insight. And agree with most of your assessments. But why is Hero's playing against sub-par softer competition and not in same bracket as Aces, Eagle and M&D?

This seems like a great opportunity to play top competition instead of playing teams that won't challenge them.

Yeah I guess Hero's should have played tougher competition

Jesters are a quality team. They play slow and really know how to control the pace. Congrats to them.

Hero's is fine. If you think they aren't a top 3 team you would be mistaken. Had one bad game. Dominated the other 2.

Other observations from a long day at the fields.

M&D is tough. You get them down you better keep them down. Guess that's why they have been #1 for 2 years running. Beating Eaglestix and Aces 2 days in a row is impressive.

Aces is fast. And their 8 meter shots are faster than anything I've seen. It was fun to finally see them.

Eaglestix draw girl is a monster. She wins 90% of the draws. Great defense. Need more offense.

Pride looks improved. Saw 2 games and the are fundamentally sound. They caught the wrong draw.

BLC looked sharp. That win over Eaglestix last week was not a fluke. They will finish top 5 nationally

Aces is a super fun team to watch. #2 on their team is probably the best player in the country at this age group.

She is fantastic. No flaws. High motor.

YJA has a top tier middie as well. Similar to Aces #2. And they have a great goalie.

#25 draw girl for Eaglestix is a beast. Big and strong. She is a difference maker. And their defense is stout.

But we are blessed to have a lot of special talent in the Maryland region as well.

Hero's has a couple of great middies. I think they are 2 and 25. Super fast. Low attack girl is really good too. I think 20. Goalie is athletic and smart.

M&D has a pair of special mids. #8 is fantastic. Plus I believe 9 and maybe 17 as well. And an attack girl who always seems like she picks and rolls you to death #11 I think.

BLC has that big attack number 99 I believe. And a couple fast mids. Not sure of their numbers. But they are well coached.. goalie is a beast also.

I apologize for not knowing a few more. Probably 50 more just like them.

Future is bright for our region. Fun to see where these girls wind up one day. Love it when my daughter plays against these teams. That's how you get better

Good luck next weekend. Lots of huge matchups
