Crabs offense was outstanding, and they were just bigger and quicker. Must of had over 35 shots, and picked up 8 out of 10 ground Balls. still a good showing by Li kids Like Reply Quote

Almost a replay of their encounter in the fall. Crabs clearly the best team in this age group with Express a close second. Wish the logistics were different and they could play on a regular basis.

Hard to rank the teams until the summer when the better teams start to face each other. Wonder how long it will take for someone to start preparing for next summer's team. Might even be in the works already. Like Reply Quote

Crabs, Express, Dukes, Loonies, Laxachusetts, Leading Edge have been playing together all year and will have a jump on the other summer teams. These programs don't seem to have a problem having their best players commit all year. Like Reply Quote

I think this team by the end of Spring will be very hard to beat. They practice 2-3 times per week since March 1, scrimmage most weekends. Crabs will have their hands full. Another strong "Summer only " team in this area is the Green Turtle. Somehow they attract top players in the Baltimore area, do nothing with them all Spring, then they are right up there with Crabs. Rock is still emerging. Like Reply Quote

Some of the unmentioned LI teams have been practicing since the winter and playing indoor games together. Like Reply Quote

We loved the Crabs game as they are super talented kids. If Green turtle or Hawks are in that category we hope to play them Too!!! If we meet in the middle like southern Jersey or Philly area and do a round robbin with the Dukes that would be the best!!!!!!! Hopefully these kids will bond become friends and remember each other into college. Like Reply Quote

Seen it with three different classes of my own. Like Reply Quote

By safe do you mean doesn't make it if a better kid comes along? I believe thats why they have tryouts, isn't it? I believe all the major clubs have very different rosters from last year, as will next year. The idea is growth so that all the best players play on each clubs best team. When people hear about a great team the best kids SOMETIMES gravitate to it. Right wrong or indifferent this is life in most organized sports. Like Reply Quote

When you say Cudas, do you mean Express Orange? The reason I ask is that the Cudas played one tournament last year, and it was made up of boys from a bunch of kids from different clubs.

After watching them play I believe they are the best 2016 team around. The skills of these kids were incredible and the coaching was right on. I believe they commit to Lax year round and it shows. They have a coach who acknowledged all the opposing players strengths and rode his players hard, can't wait to see them again on the field. Like Reply Quote

Right now it looks like Crabs rule the roost in the Entire East Have the Express played any of the other LI teams yet? I guess they may have an oppurtunity to play the Outlaws at Forsberg depending upon the schedule. Looks like they'll have to wait until TriState or Madlax to face 91. It's hard to see where the Express will be based on their website. You can only tell the away tournaments they're attending based on the hotel listings. Looks like some good lacrosse this year at this age group. Like Reply Quote

The move was being planned during the season or how else did the Barracudas play one week after the last scheduled summer tournament?

Green Turtle does nothing inthe Spring and they also would make this leauge more competitive for Crabs. Hawks and maybe Mad Lax and Next Level may be pretty good.
