You were saying...

Crush has been playing with hold backs since their inception. They played another great team with hold backs and lost.

Size and athleticism catches up.

The crabs goalie and fca goalie played awesome this weekend as well as the big attackman from 91

I have a lot of respect for Crush and was suprised to see the score, given Crabs beat Breakers 6-5 after Crush beat Breakers 9-1.

JS just tweeted "Note to kid laxers if your a 2018 and play 2020 DONT post it on your Instagram. That would be cheating"

And I thought my little town had lax drama!

Good luck boys win with class and spirit!

Crush lost in overtime to the Crabs, will meet again in Colorado. Will be interesting to see if its the same team of 6 footers.

When 99% of Long Island roots for your team to lose to a team from Maryland it's prob time to start thinking about the problem

So Aloha let that 91 kid play in the final? If so they should be ashamed. He punched a kid square in the face. Should have never seen the field again.

So what's a better lesson to teach kids? Letting older kids play down or letting 91 have their full team for the Final?

They all were pretty much even and all won their fair share but if a team got up by 4 there was no face off

World Series has 5/1 cutoff. Should be 7/1 in my view, but at least they will enforce.

PS - Punched square in face, meaning in the front of the helmet? Or was this off the field with no helmet? Difference between out of game and out of tournament, in my view, although always depends on the circumstances. I've seen some pretty nice kids take baseball swings with their sticks at the opponents midriffs when then got frustrated and only get 3m non-releasable (a gift).

there was no punch to the face as you claim, but, as per tournament rules, 2 crush players were thrown out of that game and withheld from the next game, both boys were defending a teammate who was brutally hit and not being allowed back up by an opposing player and were not just starting trouble. There was only pushing from both teams and no punches thrown from either side. You should tell the whole story not just what you want people to think of a team you dislike, it's people like you who look to make 12 year olds look like thugs that disgust me.

Did JS check what 2018 kids posted on Instagram from his car on the way home?

Regardless of how/when he found it-he is right. My guess is a Maryland parent shared it with him as Crabs have embarrassed Maryland this weekend with blatant roster loading.

Easy to find the info. One player brought down to play 2020 with Crabs is listed in a private school 8th grade graduating class list and one forgot to change his recruiting profile page from 2019 to 2020 and is listed on another 8th grade private school graduating list. Not hard to find the info out there. Technically they are not 2020s yet as most of the 2020 teams are still in school attending 7th grade classes. Next year they can be fully embarrassed by having pre-1st years and holding back in 8th grade and try to look their opponents in the eye knowing they have manipulated the system. Shame on the parents and the organization.

I root for them, you jealous [lacrosse]. They should be celebrated for their teamwork and work ethic. I point them out to my son whenever I can as an example of what hard work results in.

Except that the FCA goalie is their 2019 goalie guest appearing with the 2020 team.

You really think that... Did you notice how short he was? hahahaha

5/1 cutoff when New [lacrosse] has a 12/1 cutoff for 2020. Why call it a 2020 tournament when the cutoff date is more than half a year away from a primary state's cutoff?

Love it. Even the mighty crush are fading with reality of reclass.

So having many players that were held back early on your team like Crush has is ok, until they lose to team that has late hold backs on their team. Too funny!

The same kids rostered on Crush' 2020 team will be going to Denver as age appropriate. At least 8 of the kids who played for Crabs 2020 this weekend at Beach Lax do not make the generous age cut off. They are pre 1st holdbacks and 8th grade holdbacks. In fact, several of their regular 2020 NYPLL roster do not make he age cut off.
