We're there any Crabs players selected for the u-19 national team?

Crabs shut out - Conrad, Roesner, Constable Looneys. Kelly FCA, Pezulla Breakers

Shut out? No! Their graduating are all too old for that team.

The commercial is pretty lame. A decent HS video class could make a better commercial.

I was half hoping it would be a link to a real commercial that is good for the game, like the [lacrosse]'s sporting goods one about Harlem lacrosse. Then I saw this was just a local TV ad to solicit parents to pay a tryout fee. This commercial might have cost $6 to make on an iPhone.

Doing something right, 75 kids out for a team with maybe 4 spots open......oh and these are all the "best" kids from "the" other clubs. Maybe those clubs should get out their iPhones?

Lots of haters out there. Sorry your son couldn't make the Crabs.

I concur! CRABS best days are in the past. They survive off the past.....if they started today they would struggle, just like everyone else.....TEAM 91 is coming fellas......

The Crabs are just fine. However, it is troubling that 91 was able to get as many players as they did, especially at the 2020 year. Crabs, Looneys and FCA all have established, successful teams at that age and still 91 was able to pull very good kids in.

They took kids who were leaving the Breakers to be with Millon. They did not get any of the kids from Crabs, FCA or Looney's. Not really that impressive of a haul.

hearing that looneys may be getting stronger?? when do you just lock your kids in and have some loyalty?

Think how much better Crabs, Looneys and FCA would be if those Breakers players had come over. Instead of two or three great teams you are left with 4 good teams. They can all beat each other but they can't beat 91 Crush.

There are a lot of good lacrosse players at the 2020 age in Baltimore but not enough to support 4 teams. I am surprised that the Breakers players did not leave for Crabs, Looneys or FCA.

You don't, that's why there are TRYOUTS

This last statement has no basis in fact. Rosters for the two 91 2020 teams are not complete. At this week's tryouts (second round), there were 8 crabs helmets, several FCA helmets, several looneys helmets, and assorted roughriders, koopers and other non-breakers talent. Unless all these kids were just "window-shopping", it is safe to assume that at least the top 91 2020 team will add significantly to the breakers squad that lost to the crabs in OT at the beach. Still a pending development, but the signs point to a very competitive team.

91 will be the weakest 2020 team. Their supposed second aa team will take a beating. Talk about over promising. No way two aa teams can be fielded.

Interesting take as the second 2020 team on Breakers last year with the same coach and many of the same players on the second AA T91 team this year (they moved along with the AA team), were competitive and did beat several AA teams throughout the year despite being called "A". Give the coach and team credit for knowing that perhaps they may not be a top 5 2020 AA but that they were too good to play single A just because there is already a AA at the club. They know the only way they will get better is by playing at the AA level rather than beating teams 12-0 all season. Why do you have a problem with it if they know the situation?
