That heroes 2019 team won't be back at Hofstra if I was the coach. They are dominant. Their only competition is sky walkers and mnd in Maryland

this is a joke right? Next we will hear they have a unique training program of wax on wax off, paint the fence and sand the floor!

Two red shirts and 2 from Yellow. Two returning players were missing, one may have left. So lets say maybe 3 adds. That's still too many to carry but we'll just have to wait until December to see.

M&D has 7 new players and 5 are gone from last year. Should be fun games between the two teams again next summer.

Only one from blue 2

What's your opinion on fall tournaments at this age? Is it just about keeping a stick in their hand?
Do you feel any pressure from the club to participant?

New to Elevate 2021, was told at tryouts by the club that they compete with the best teams in this age group.

Yes that is true. Played in top seeded brackets in all the tournaments.

Elevate has become less competitive each year they have played. With the departure of a number of players this trend should continue.

And lost them all.:)

Depending on the margin of loss and as long as they are not getting blown out then I would much rather have my daughter compete at the highest level. Much better than playing no name second tier teams and crushing them. Elevate seems to be the only LI team to enter the same tournys as YJ's.

I completely agree. It was a joke. Although I don't think Elevate has played M&D any more than TG has. Think it is only once each.

and you get to have Dave K. jump in and coach the teams during the tournament....all good!

Not an Elevate parent but believe me we have had our share of crappy coaching!
Would have been thrilled to have the club director jump in and help.
High School girls and college players don't always translate to good coaches especially when they don't get any mentoring.

How did the games in Maryland go yesterday for the 2021 age group?

I would have DK coaching my daughter any day of the week. Any parent that says other wise knows nothing about the game. And they did not lose all their games playing in top seeded brackets. Yeah sorry didn't win a t-shirt big deal. I'm not one of those parents that has to win every game to feel good. As long as my daughter is getting better and enjoys her team it's all good right?

M&D beat whatever version that was of YJ 2021 14-6. Unfortunately, neither M&D nor YJ played Heros who was probably the other top team there. M&D and YJ both beat TLC rather easily.

That version was about a 1/3 of the top team with nearly no midfielders going and pickup players filling out the roster. Not everyone is into driving 5 1/2 hours and staying in hotels for a poor, off season tournament. At least it is in the MD teams backyard, probably get a much better turnout.

I wouldn't want Dave k to jump in and coach my daughter he only cares about the money not the girl

Easy man. There was no chest pounding. Said it wasn't the full team. Completely understand not wanting to drive down. Why does CR run a tournament in MD every fall?

I I

They play against, but cannot compete. Their new additions are C team players

That's uncalled for to call out girls like that. You must be a really disgruntled parent. Shame on you. Elevate 2021 blue will be fine this year.

For the $$

I saw Hero's play on Sunday and I saw M&D play too. Hero's was CLEARLY the best 2031 team there. They would've crused M&D. BTW..my daughter doesn't play for either team. She is an assistant coach for another club team. Just my educated observation.

Have no idea what rosters looked like for this fall tournament. Played both of these teams true summer strength, both teams very good. Definitely give an edge to M&D.

2031? Heros and M&D sure start them young. But I suggest before making snap judgements we wait until they can play pacifier-free...it changes everything.

You do realize Heros played a bunch of B teams on Sunday right and only beat one of them by a goal. Meanwhile M&D won 20-1, 14-4, 14-6 over YJ and 10-4 over TLC. And M&D was making full team substitutions every 6 minutes.

M&D and Heros play Saturday so we'll see.

I would definitely give the advantage to M&D since Heros has never beaten them and most of the games were not even close.

M&D 2021 Black will not lose a game this fall, next spring or next summer.

It would appear that M&D will have the deepest team this year. They will have the ability to sub and have absolutely no drop off in play , something no other team can say even YJ 2021 Blue.

This could be, but very interested to see the Heros team. They seem to be extremely confident after their influx of girls from Bitmore. Looking forward to Saturday's matchup.

Hopefully Hero's is good. Maybe their coaches will stop screaming so much.

There are times and there are situations in games when what may seem like screaming is really just a coach trying to make sure that the furthest player hears them. And of course in the noise and din of a lacrosse game - those situations arise all the time.
Maybe that is the only way the Heros coaches can be sure they are heard over the parents coaching from the sidelines.

YJ faithful, love that everyone is quite on these matters, let's continue to keep it above the line and let the girls do the talking like they did last year.

Yeah. Right.

What a toolbag. We get it ,you wanted to scream "but what about us we beat MD last year " so you tried to say it without saying it.

Both M&D and YJ have very strong teams and great parents " it's all good" look forward to some great games again.

Yes, you beat M&D last year when they were missing three starters. By a goal. And there was plenty of talking by YJ parents after that game.

The girls lost just as many as they won against M&D, but they have fun as a team. Frankly, their best win last year was the talent show at Towson Camp.
