BOTC - US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums NORTHEAST LACROSSE BOTC MAIN FORUM (LI, CT, WC) Boys 2020-8th Grade Fall 2015 Summer 2016

1-2 I think, competitive games against town and B level travels teams. Played well, Didn't embarrass themselves in any way, Including the coachj, which is a breath of fresh air.

They finished 2-1 . They 2020 bracket was very competitive all day

They went 2-1 on the day, so did Express, but Express moved into champ game vs Manhasset

Saw two refs embarrass themselves during the Manhasset v Express game.

The team is called Set2020, aka as "The Farm"

What grade level?

Please fill us in on what that means

Yes, confirmed. Keep in mind, that is the Express 2/3 team depending on who you ask.

So who won the Championship?

The [lacrosse] Farm

West Islip 2020

Anyone know if the under armour all American underclass team is legit or a money grab?

West Islip won the B bracket
Set Lax won the Big Boy bracket

So which town is Set Lax from ?

Manhasset.

My hat is off to you winning the Big Boy division with just town kids .

FYI that Madlax 2020 had a great spring playing most of the best clubs on the East Coast. Much better than playing in the HoCo league.

Get ready for Madlax to make a big statement this summer. You've been warned.

sounds like these two towns should schedule a game.

I would be they weren't all from Manhasset with that name...

What elite teams did they play?

Besides looneys who beat them 16-2

I don't know if I would call it a money grab, but I definitely would not call it legit. My son tried out last year and didn't make it past first round. With that said, there are a lot of college coaches in attendance and he was contacted by 11 or 12 schools which made it worth it for us. The event is run by the Express directors with decisions being made by them and other coaches who evaluate, and as you would imagine there is no doubt politics involved in all the cut rounds as is usually the case with these types of try outs. Many of the kids who do make it from round to round of cuts are very deserving, but there are always a bunch that leave everyone with a bad taste in their mouths. The short answer is don't go with any expectations of making the team, but if your son plays well he will get some looks and maybe make it to the next round.

Before someone accuses me of sour grapes and says I don't know what I'm talking about and it's only my opinion. I will tell you that some of the college coaches who contacted my son told us they all know the fix is in and the best players don't necessarily make the team because of the politics. That's why so many coaches show up for the first round to see as many kids as they can before the nonsense starts when cuts are made. Good luck.

That sounds like a good honest answer to me. Thank you

MadLax Capital played MadLax Tri-state, MadLax NoVa, and MadLax I-95 corridor. Look out everyone.

Kinda of ridiculous to say ML played better competition than the HOCO league. Every team in the elite division would dismantle ML. Some already have....

Manhasset -4 West Islip

Are we gambling on middle school lacrosse?

No i think Manhasset is 4 goals better than WI. Get your mind out of the gutter. Who said anything about wagering?

The way it was written it is Manhasset giving 4. subject to interpretation

The Set 2020 team is For the Love of the Green in just wearing different uniforms. Let's keep it real....

Gambling on any lacrosse is silly. there is a reason there is no book on lacrosse. You better not tell your kids you are gambling on their game, talk about pressure they dont need at this age.

An overlap, but it's not the same team.

Green is mostly manhasset kids no?

Keep talking. You'll be eating those words this summer.

Big 4 HHH has some very strong teams playing. Anyone give us a rating so we know who we are facing. Of course we know that Crush and Crabs will be strong. Can anyone kindly fill in the rest. Thank You

Anyone got any new rankings? Just curious

Greens is mostly Manhasset dads...

Now that Edisons closed

ST As parent be aware with head varsity coach's son coming up to play next year there will be limited room for talent without a hook your son may end up riding the bench, St As is all about $$$$ donations and hooks with all the Hooks and $$$$ coming up next year there will be little room for unhooked talent Be aware, SJB or kellenberg might be a better choice

what does Hooked unhooked mean.

Greens - is a pub in Manhasset... funny. Some of you guys are good.
