Did Legacy 2019 team fold?

Did Legacy 2019 team fold?

Yes all 3 folded

So now they don't have a 2019 and didn't the 2018 fold?

Yes all 3 folded

If you combined all
Three teams you might have had a competitive B team ..that's about it . It was never truly a good a team

Perhaps this has been answered, it seems a rather obvious question, but one I don't recall seeing. How come none of the travel programs, ie Express/91 etc don't play regular games? Why just tournaments? Wouldn't it be logical for these programs to play each other in a regular game, non tournament? Any thoughts answers to this question, and please let's try to keep it civilized!! Thanks

I agree . I'd like to see some of these teams play full fields , full games , etc. let some endurance and athleticism play more of a part in the games and to get a better read on the individual player.

One 2019 kid went down to the 2020 team. Maybe there was nowhere else to go?

2019 Commandos - 2013-2014 school year was a great team. They had players who loved to play the game of lacrosse and more importantly a coach who knew how to get the most out of a player. The boys wanted to attend the practices and loved playing i. The tournaments, win or loose.

Then came 2014-15 school year. The club dynamic changed and so did the coaches. This time even more talent joined the team---wanting to be a part if that great team. However, coaches changed and unfortunately for the players, it was not the same atmosphere any longer.

The coaching staff for this team was not what the players and parents wanted for their sons going into a pivotal year. Who knows, things could revert back to the way it was and next year and everyone might come back.

Remember, nothing is ever constant like change.

Good luck to all of the players this fall. It will be fun facing each other wearing new colors.

Yes all of a sudden DELETED young enough to play for 2020. Why didn't he play with them last year?

Because he's in 9th grade, whaaaat?? Wild west of lax!

I am assuming his birthday is in October or November which makes him eligible to play 2020 but he is probably academically and socially sound and his parents didn't need to hold him back just for sports reasons unlike some people. I guess you couldn't figure that out because your the one that was academically challenged growing up.

Have a nice day

Unfortunately due to the drama they no longer will be wearing a 2019 legacy jersey at all. A shame that a few rotten apples spoiled the entire bunch!!!

Anyone read the story about the HS football wrestler that was held back to gain an advantage over his peers... Guess what a NJ senator did.... and he is pushing a bill to limit your years of eligibility if you hold back in grade 6/7/8 when an issue of academics is not apparent.

It is also been heard as rumors in the congress... They may actually look at this before trying to regulate fan duel/draft kings and those other fantasy sites... could get interesting especially when that em[ployee just broke the bank at Fan Duel.

You think Congress, THE US CONGRESS is going to regulate the youth lacrosse age issue? To me that would be a sign of the end of the world as we know it.

He can play 2020 since he reclassed...

Please stop it. There is no team this year. That is the sad truth. As I have heard, most of the boys have all made it on teams that will help them in their futures. Many are together on various teams; and Im sure the players and families will continue their close friendships that were created regardless of their current team. You will see each other at tournaments and hotels.

Good luck to all of the 2019's Legacy players whether on the original or second year team. I know it is hard but try not to harp on the past but look forward to the bright futures these boys have ahead of them.

dishonest

Heard he did not reclass, is currently in 9th grade.

Hop, please stop the posting of comments about a specific child. This boy is 14 and what his parents choose to do is not anyone's business. Can posts in regard to this young man be removed.

Oh, you are so wrong - It is absolutely our business!

It is our kids who lose an opportunity for a spot on the team that the cheating child just took.

It is our kids who have to play against the cheaters week after week, and who practice and play their hearts out to compete with the cheaters who are playing down.

It is us parents who have to explain to our kids the concept of the cheaters and how life isn't always fair, but be true to yourself, play your best and have fun.

It is our kids who played with/against the child on 2019 and then ask how is he playing on 2020 now. oh, wait, I should just tell my son he is imagining it? Or it's none of our business? WRONG

Until there are rules in place against these things, it will be none of your business. They are not cheaters if it is permitted, sadly.
