BOTC - US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums NORTHEAST LACROSSE BOTC MAIN FORUM (LI, CT, WC) Girls 2021-7th Grade Fall 2015 Summer 2016

MD United coach was an evaluator for the Brine selection process. All MD United kids that tried out made the team. Probably just a coincidence.

Didn't Stars beat YJ at that tournament in NJ at Rider College? or was that 2020?

No 2021 team beat YJ last summer other than M&D

Lots af B team girls left.

No 2021 team beat YJ last summer other than M&D [

Let's not forget there were three 2021 YJ teams so the OP could be correct.

Let's all get it straight. NO 2021 team beat YJ last summer other than M+D. Now please everyone get it right we don't need to staty this discussion again.

Not sure what you mean by lots but this team will be equal or better than any other A team on LI. I would also bet the girls that left will be back at tryouts after this summer season.

Good post from disgruntled former YJ parent trying to stir the pot! Good luck this summer with your new club

Heroes is going to be the best competition for you in DMV this year. We are looking forward to the summer tourneys.

Good post from the former M&D parent. Lol

22 Total - WHERE ARE THE REST OF THE PLAYERS GOING? Do the Red Teams get any traction at all?
This is really not that impressive if you ask me.


HERE are TLC's 2016 Commits-

Sophie Brown - Highpoint University
Savannah Buchanan - University of Notre Dame
Madeleine Clark - University of Oregon
Jodi Credit - St. Mary's College of Maryland
Caroline Cummings - Drexel University
Bridget Danko - Marquette
Mackenzie Gandy - Robert Morris University
Melanie Gandy - Robert Morris University

Rachel Karwacki - Boston College
Eva King - Vanderbilt University
Morgan McDonnell - George Washington University
Caroline Muller - University of Michigan
Cassidy Nozemack - Elon University
Grace Pollak - Furman University
Coulby Riehl - Georgetown University
Ann Pearson Smith - Washington & Lee University

Less players but more impressive group I feel.
But again, where are the rest of the players?
Is Team A really paying/playing so Team B can go forth and prosper?

Intelligent thoughts with out attacks welcomed.
Whats the best road to travel? A Club that takes care of everyone or who only promotes and plays the top girls?

That's funny. There are a couple things funny about this actually.

The first is that Hero's has never beaten M&D.

The second thing that is funny is the poster doesn't know how to spell Hero's!

I'm guess this is someone starting trouble because of this. I don't think any actual Hero's parent feels they have surpassed M&D.

That M&D list is not a complete list. And some of those girls are from the Red team. They are updating the website. Not sure why there are girls missing from there. They had taken commitments off the website and are in the process of adding them. In their history, usually about 100% of the Black team and about half of the Red team play in college.

Without even researching there are 2 MD commits missing on the M&D list and one from Hopkins missing also. A lot of the girls on the M&D list are Red players.

Not sure what your point was, but M&D is the best at getting girls from both teams to college.

My point is funny guy, that M&D is not the best at getting them into college. Lets wait and see the final list. Can't just make blanket statements without the proof. M&D's recruits do not look that impressive for all the chest pounding- face it.
YJ's recruits blow them away in this area as well.

Any info on TLC's list?

I can't see how a coach, acting as an evaluator for a Brine team (or any select team for that matter such as Under Armour) could get away with stocking it with kids from their own club team without someone raising a stink about it. Could it be that the girls earned it based on the competition they were up against?

Or could it be that MD United Girls made up the vast majority of the girls trying out? The tryouts were at their fields.

No Baltimore area girls tried out. There are Baltimore tryouts in the Spring.

Who cares about Brine anyway? Does anyone still tryout for this?

4-5 girls left for another club but new girls on. Tjink Elevate A team will be better

M&D girls were given the most Brine spots - more than any Club. M&D had 4 evaluators on the field and an M&D Coach runs it. Must be just a coincidence.

You aren't talking about the 2021 age obviously. Why are you posting that here? What team had M&D evaluators?

Brine is good for B team players. nothing wrong with that.

Talking about 2020-21 Brine Team.

There were no M&D evaluators at the Brine tryouts this fall. They were run by MD United coaches. Not sure why you are making things up

Your list for 2016 Black does not include 7 D1 commits (MD, Florida, Hopkins, Penn State etc) and includes multiple talented players from the Red team.

Nice try though!

First of all, it's not a contest. It doesn't matter who goes where, as long as the player and parents are happy with the destination. Second, I bet if you look at ANY club team's website and look at the alumni they would ALL look the same...D1, D2, D3.
Example 1:

Integrity: Small club.
Caitlin Blanche, Navy
Katie Cavanaugh, Belmont Abbey
Lexi Clark, Shenandoah
Hannah Coakley, Rollins College
Kali Ferguson, Mount Olive
Sarah Gillogly, Monmouth University
Skylar Grady, UMBC
Carson Gregg, University of Denver
Angelica Jensen, Hofstra
Jackie Kaderabek, Mount Olive
Mckensey Lavin, Shenandoah
Gina Openshaw, Brown University (Field Hockey)
Emily Nutter, Monmouth University
Lucy Sullivan, Salisbury
Madeline Szanyi, Hofstra University

Example 2:
Md United: Medium large club.
Payton Beach - Virginia Tech
Julianna Brown - George Mason
Sydney Davis - St. Francis
Abby Dengler - Grand Valley State
Meredith Dillon - Costal Carolina
Brianna Harris - Florida
Kayla Harris - US Naval Academy
Brittany Jacobs - Campbell
Chelsea Kibler - U Penn
Kayla Koch - Presbyterian College
Maddie McDaniel - James Madison
Laura Milleker - Denver
Abigail O’Neal - Grand Valley State
Emma Schwartz - George Mason
Skylar Simmers - Grand Valley State
Kasey Stevens - Jacksonville
Taylor Sullivan - San Diego State
Makenzie Aponte - Long Island U
Kendall Bannan - Salisbury
Molly Barkman - Longwood
Abby Bernhardt - Mary Washington
Jordan Conley - [lacrosse]
Brooke Dooley - Delaware
Emily D’Orsaneo - Loch Haven
Madeline Gonzalez - Central Michigan
Emma Hamilton - Central Michigan
Maddie La Clair - Towson
Brooke Malamphy - La Salle
Stephanie Miller - Monmouth
Kelly Sheilds - IUP
Abigail Single - Salisbury
Alexandra Wilder - Rollins University

I just don't see any real difference here. The destination of all the players on all the clubs runs the gamut in many parameters.

I think the original poster meant MD United, not M & D. Just wanted to point that out before M & D dad's head explodes...
.

This is the same conversation taking place on the 2019 thread.

So what 2021 LI team will reign supreme?
Gotta a good feeling elevate may surprise a few people!

Elevate has a strong team in the 2021 age group? Interesting. DO you think they will compete with the likes of YJ, M&D, etc? I know they lost A LOT of talent to Igloo and others. What makes you think they will surprise people?

Don't fall for this nonsense. Someone posts this Elevate crap every few months.

Someone spent all last winter talking up 21 elevate, this past summer showed how far behind the top teams they actually are, some pretty bad blowouts. Sounds like gap will be even larger this summer, should probably start playing B brackets in tournaments.

Yeah I agree. It seems every time someone puts something about elevate 2021 it is followed by they lost their best players to another club.

Don't worry about us. We will be fine. Worry about your own team. And why will gap be even larger?

Can I ask you a question? Why are you so worried about elevate 2021? I'm not concerned on winning every game. Don't need to pump my chest around. It's not about that. They are in 7th grade. Is your daughter getting better? Does she like her teammates? Is she having fun? Stop living through your kid. I have been there and done it. I played a sport in college. You probably sat on the bench or never even played a sport.

So did many A team girls walk last year or is that someone trying to stir the pot?

top 4 girls went to igloo. Others tried out at Yj but made the 3rd team so came back.

Why would top A team girls go to a startup? Seems like a step back to me. We are kinda stuck where we are at, already paid 50% but looking for options for 2017. Considering TG or Elevate. Kid is a solid b-b+ player. Not Interested in YJ.

Any igloo folks out there care to comment on their thoughts so far?

you have 4 solid players from one club go to a startup. they are able to get 4 more good players they know from other clubs and then of the 20 others that show for tryout you pick up 10 B players your good. you are now a solid B team.

So any thoughts if this Iglo program will succeed or will they die off like express and 91?

I think any program that primarily focuses on their boys program is going to be weaker with the girls side. Then again, you never know. I'm hoping that they do end up being successful. I am from a rival club, but I believe that the more the talent is spread out on LI, the better off every one will be. A lax monopoly like YJ does nothing from us except force our girls to have limited options and learning possibilities. No knock on YJ, just mentioning them because for a long time they were the place to be. They still have a great program, but now other teams are able to get better players who will start to compete with them. Just trying to be a positive voice on a website that often finds the negativity in everything.
