Watching this SJB team for the first time they should have more D-1 commits. Guess it's lack of exposure. I would think their new coach is trying to change that. Go Flyers.

The game was closer then the score and it was only 3 points. A few shouts that hit the post. They go in and this board would have blown up.

Very impressed with SJB. They have a lot of talent on the team. Wouldn't be surprised if some of the SJB kids commit to good schools over the next few months.

why so obsessed with the commit stuff? enjoy watching your kids playing with the h.s. team. they will only feel the pressure of committing if parents make so much of it.

Charminade parents? Typical. Take accountability. You won a close game to a team you should have blown out.
That is why they play the game.

Because the commit stuff is what makes parents consider schools for their kids ie St Anthonys. And parents considering other schools is the only thing that will expand the catholic league beyond the Big 2. You like knowing who is in this years, next years, and the year after that Catholic League Championship today? Boring.

The game was far closer than the score makes it appear. This year's Chaminade team will not win any of their upcoming difficult games. Looks like no TORCH fund money from me this year, lol.

So very true, I think if the new coach was in place at SJB during the orientation process for 2019/2020 many local lax kids may have opted for that school. Lets see where this year ends up. You may see some deciding to end up there after things don't work out for them at the big 2!

A national power gives up three easy goals in three minutes? Which is it, you are good or are you bad? Or better yet, mediocre? Want to predict the final record? 8-9 losses? And congratulations in advance when you drop 19 on a terrible HT squad. But we know, we know the sophomores will save the day. LOL

Charminade parents it was very nice of you giving SJB 3 easy goals in the 4th to a fellow catholic school. You should be proud of the example you are setting for these kids. I guess you didn't want to make SJB kids feel bad. Next you will blame the SJB kids for scoring and not quitting at the end of the game. This is classic. No accountability!!!! You won a close game. get over it.

I guess coaching does matter.

Without being sarcastic, and I'm not a parent of anyone one the team, the late three goals to me show the flaw in this years team. They don't seem to have an Alpha Dog, the kid who takes charge or when late goals are being given up won't tolerate it. There was no anger at allowing the lead to shrink, rather an "oh well, not a biggie...we're gonna win anyway" demeanor on the field. That attitude, I think, is a result of these guys reading the preseason press and knowing they have their college acceptance in their hip pocket. Let's be honest, once they lose more than once they are nowhere in national rankings and if the kids aren't the type kid that hates to lose more than he likes to win then the only game he'll really get excited about will be St. Anthony's. This team played flat yesterday, and will play flat again.....trust me.

Here is a thought, how about they are not as good as they thought?

A couple things: 1) When has anyone from Chaminade ever claimed to be "state champs" after winning the CHSAA title? 2) The 2-team AAA league was set up because ADs from the league's "lesser" teams were pissed about always losing 3) Both Chaminade and St. Anthony's play more difficult schedules than any other team in New [lacrosse]

Why does Chaminade have a former goalie coaching their offense? Guy is terrible, offense is terrible, it might be time to make a change. The personnel they have does not fit the style he is forcing down their throat. They need to get rid of him - it is a 5th grade PAL offense - embarrassing...

Charminarde has 9 regular season games left. I wouldn't be surprised if they go 3-6. They are just not as good as years past. They don't have that stud or 2 as past seasons. All teams have down years. part of HS sports.

Watched Kellenberg play at Stables. Wow this program is in trouble. Staples is a good team. But Kellenberg's teams D is not very strong and the offence didn't show up. This program is now on the decline. Last was bad. This year is worse? Any thoughts on what is happening there

He looks great when he has talent but he doesn't know how to develop kids. He's excellent at blaming the kids when he gets outcoutched though, which is pretty much every game now. Time for both parties to move on but they won't. Good luck to the parents who are thinking this is an excellent alternative to Chaminade or St Anthony's.

That would be an upgrade. It's a club team, we all just met each other yesterday offense. That's what happens when you usually have the most talent and are more interested in your club "business."

Time for both parties to move on but they won't. Good luck to the parents who are thinking this is an excellent alternative to Chaminade or St Anthony's. This team is now losing to the smaller schools? How can that happen. This school is 4X larger the St Doms. Since the change in the AD there has been a bigger focus on athletics. But not very good results. Is there a talent issue at the school. Last year there was a call to bring up the under class-men. Now that those under class-men are now on Varsity the results are the same. They are not winning. Not looking good for the coaching either. Clearly this is not the alternative to Chaminade or St Anthony's. For LAX it would be St Doms or St Johns. They have been beating Kellenberg for the last 3 years consistently. The problem with that is these schools combined are still smaller then Kellenberg by a lot?

Not sure how the offensive guy got the job but clearly what he has been doing this year and last is not working (I know they won last year but it was ugly). But he is too stubborn to change and the program (and seniors) suffer for it. Like the rest he is a pompous blowhard who thinks his sh8t doesn't stink because he is a high school coach at Chaminade. Time for a change - maybe he should just stick to being a goalie coach...

You know what was meant. Juniors get another shot next year - seniors don't. Good coaches adjust their systems to the personnel - not the other way around. We are 8 games in and zero adjustments have been made - ZERO. The same crappy slow it down, then take 3 minutes to sub, then work it around, then dodge from up top, then dodge from behind, etc. AWFUL!!!
Set them free - let them run and gun. Clearly the other way is not working. The kids are so afraid of making a mistake that nobody takes chances - and when no one takes chances nothing happens.
Darien beat Manhasset 11-8 the other day

Chaminade has a long tradition of sticking to something that worked well beyond it usable shelf life. Football playbooks seemed to be passed down from generation to generation, as if they were the Ten Commandments. Who doesn't have the image of Jim Quinn twirling his finger, screaming for the beloved "motion" offense. The other teams knew our plays better than our own kids. Now lacrosse is asking a group to run the same offense that we've run year on year out, no consideration of is it the best offense for the skills these kids may have. They don't have a guy who can impose himself on a defender, and i can't recall too many goals off unsettled situations.
I guess they got a little breather today, and some of the bench had some fun.

Wait, you went to CT to watch a HS lacrosse game but don't have a particular rooting interest? The way your post reads is like you don't have a kid playing, you just caught a game. KMHS varsity played at 12:30, KMHS JV played at 2:30 (my kids team) and St. Anthony's JV came in at 4:30 for a game. All at Staples.
If you have a kid on either KMHS teams your post is weird. If you have a kid at St. Anthony's and hung out all day from 12:30 that is also pretty weird, maybe weirder. I will skip the part about you being a Staples parent as weird to post what you did. That said, if you have no kids playing on any of the 6 teams to compete at staples that day I will ask you kindly to stay away.

Sounds like 40x Rudy and not enough tough. That's not all on the coach. Sounds like it's a bunch of kids who have been told how wonderful and special they were since playing on a 'top U-13 club team'. LI has had some incredible youth club teams. The 2017 Tenacious Turtles were the best youth and middle school club team I ever saw. Maybe part of the problem is being so wonderful so young. It sounds very convincing when kids hear that and believe it so young. Just sayin...the cultural and attitude problems might be many years old and that ain't all on the Chammy coach.

Traffic was crazy that day no one just went to Westport for the day. There was a purpose. I say it is probably a disgruntled KMHS JV parent who wants JR pulled up.
