Their entire core grew up playing on the same club team, which had poor coaching and mainly played in B tournaments. Unfortunately the players haven’t faced tough competition at the club level, which plays into their ability to compete at the HS level. The core of the other top HS A division teams simply have had more run, much better coaching in the younger years and are battle tested. They knew where their holes were going to be years ago, nothing was done.
I tend to agree, the more off season lax that player participates makes the average player, a contributing player. Whether or not you subscribe to lax 365 is not the case, it is more so that is what a lot players are doing. Because the better players will be the better players, it’s rounding out the team which makes a team excel in HS. The off season development and the quality of that development make the difference.
