Anonymous Unregistered A	last year they changed the schedule so that many of the top teams did not play each other during the year...it meant games against some schools that were pure blowouts. not fun for anyone. this year all the strong teams playing each other during the season...

Like previous poster said, Suffolk will be a really interesting year because all of the top teams are playing each other. So, northport, sme, smw, sachem N, connetquot and even Commack all have legitimate shot to beat each other up during the regular season (if I didn't mention your school, no disrespect, the teams i listed are the one's I am aware of, others may be just as strong). I suspect that there will be no undefeated teams in Suffolk this year-which is great for parents watching the games, but probably not great for these rankings...so unlike other poster's opinion, I would not expect three teams in suffolk to be ranked in the top ten (perhaps top 20). either way, I for one am looking forward to this season as compared to last season. Last season had only a few good games all year until playoffs. This year, all the big lax schools play competitive schedules with very few blow out games... good luck to all your boys and their schools. Commack? Not only that, but the WM makes no mention of West Islip. That's messed up. Every year we hear the same nonsense. Every year we hear how tough the league is and how any number of teams could win it. The reality is that every year there are only 2, 3 or 4 teams who can win it. That is not a knock it's the same in all of the leagues on the island.

Anonymous Unregistered A	Originally Posted by Anonymous don't get too hung up on the preseason rankings...Lots of teams not on the initial list play teams on the list... Suffolk county got very little respect other than sme...lots of good games to be had out in Suffolk this year and suspect by the end of the year, you will have three of those teams in the top ten... Chammy plays WM early so i expect we will see how they both stack up... Smithtown East West Islip Connetquot

I guess it pays to have the guy coach them in summer ball..Lol

Anonymous Unregistered A	2014- that would be the season before last -no ? WM beats WI during season 9-8 double OT WI beats WM 7-5 in semi-final to get to County championship with overachieving team that everybody wrote off. I won't even go into the history between these two teams the last 15 years or so. Actually we get along pretty well with WM fans. Mutual respect thing you probably wouldn't understand.

Not sure what you mean by saying "Last three years has not been any rivalry between these two teams...". Personally I do not like looking to the past. I prefer to look at the upcoming season. Maybe look at a year or two as some of the current players were on the teams over the past two years. But, if you want to look at ancient history a more relevant time frame would be five years. Over the past five years WM and WI have played each other seven times. West Islip has won five of the past seven games. The series is tied at one and one over the past two years. The only game that matters is the next one.

Enjoy your 50x100 and overcrowded HS fields...and looking up at Manhasset again this year. I'd go there or CSH in a second over GC if I still lived on LI.

I just found the obvious oversight both intentional and hilarious. There will always be a friendly rivalry between these two programs.

Well, at least there's something GC and Syosset parents can all agree on: they wish they could've afforded Manhasset.
