They are losing to teams who have a lot less talent.

I think the leadership needs to figure out how to use the talent they have better. It appears Many of their D1 committed players ride their bench? And, it seems they can’t figure out how to get the talent out there working together as a team? Their rankings have suffered. They are Out of the top 10 in the Northeast with 5 LI public’s ahead of them. #20 in National ranking, but Probably soon to be out of National top 25 ? This is unfortunate, as there was a lot of hype on that team both locally and Nationally pre-season.

If they can’t pull it together soon, maybe with some fresh eyes evaluating the talent? They are in for one of their worst season in years.

There is no way they will come close to beating Darien or even give them a good game at this rate. Especially, if they continue playing the way they are playing now. At this point, just hoping that it is not a blowout! That would be unfortunate, and not fun for anyone.
