Maybe their unbelievably arrogant head coach's swollen head will shrink.

Igloo 2020 8th grade team beat Legacy Taz in LI Laxfest not the Igloo 7th grade team.

Igloo 2020 8th grade team beat Legacy Taz at LI Laxfest not the Igloo 7th grade team.

You are a fool. Madlax won their first two games against 2 excellent teams and made the semifinals, one win away from the championship.

So Madlax is not only a Top 10 team, they have an argument to be considered among the Top 4 2020 teams in the country.

That's even more embarrasing! That's what happens when too many politically connected parents convince to not too bright coach that their son should be on the field at all times!

Ok you may have a point Crabs didn't even make it to the semifinals but top 4. They lost 18-2 in the semifinals didn't even give Crush a game.

What club does he play for?

Other bracket was much deeper based on actual talent not reputation.

You funny! I am pretty sure you are joking but just in case...at Adrenaline they were outscored 34-6 in pool play, the only game they won was in the consolation game against the team who did not beat anyone. At Big 4, they beat two middle of the pack A teams. In their last two tournaments they have not gotten within 5 goals of any of the better teams. There were (at least) 5 teams at Big 4 that they could never touch and a bunch more at other tournaments as well.

I believe Freedom Lax.

Anyone else get a headache from that little madman screaming DELETED at the top of his lungs whenever Taz played...

Madlax 2020 as a top 5 team? You cannot be serious. All of the teams in HOCO elite are SIGNIFICANTLY better, then add in 91 Crush, NH Tomahawks, Laxachusetts, etc. - sorry - I don't see it.

Great lacrosse all over this weekend. Express was off looks like everyone else played. Taz had a really rough weekend by the looks of the scores. West Coast Starz met Crush in Finals at big 4. No real shockers at that event. Maybe madlax thinking their good is the only shocker. Looneys won their event, beat hawks than rising sons in championshp. rising sons beat Tomahawks to get in. Crabs lost yet again. Leading Edge up and down. BBL with good win over HHH.

Then Madlax with good win over BBL.

An FYI to all lax clubs that may play the 2020 Skipjacks club from the south shore of MA. They played down a division (B) as their own website rates the team as their A team. Beat up 4 weaker B teams, finally had better competition in the playoffs as you would expect. In watching the semi-finals I witnessed the most classless display of lacrosse. A Player who's birth certificate should be challenged with average skill lower his shoulder to run through smaller and lighter players as if he was a football running back. He scored a point blank goal and proceeded to thrust his hips (you know what I mean here) back and forth in the goalie face on the crease. As the parents yelled for an unsportsmanlike/taunting penalty which the refs didn't call he was congratulated by his team running of the field and proceeded to raise both middle fingers to the parents sideline. His coaches did nothing. This program should be ashamed of itself. Goalie is the hardest position in lacrosse and should be respected above all other players. Players should be taught to respect others on the field and win with class and lose with class. This program owes the tournament an apology for sandbagging the division and displaying the most classless and unsportsmanlike display of Lacrosse I have seen in 35+ years as a player, coach and parent. I considered writing to the program but realized this would do nothing, providing this feedback on BOTC will be far greater an avenue to alert all the other programs of be aware of this programs behavior. Missed in all this is IF this was witnessed by a college coach this program and players have done serious damage to their image and only have themselves to blame.

Sorry, BBL is weak... keep grasping Mad Lax guy...

I wasn't sure of the grade/team but we were set up next to field 3 and saw this display (the hip thrusts and the middle fingers), it was against the All-Greys - we used it as a lesson for our 4th graders on what not to do. If that was 8th grade lacrosse we are all in trouble.

Same BBL that was 2-6 in NXT league and 0-4 at NLF? C'mon MadLax give us a break.

skipjacks were a pulling that stuff all day. they would have been smoked beans in the A bracket.

Yes. From him as well as other Taz parents. They were worked up this weekend.

Gotta love the Crabfeast 2020 Brackets. RM games the system any way he can. Cakewalk bracket for Crabs. Looneys get NH Tomahawks, Hawks get LI Express, Crabs get Resolute. Looneys outscored Resolute 29-3 in two games this past weekend.

It wasn't 8th grade lacrosse... It looked to be 9th-10th grade age playing down in the 8th grade bracket because they can't compete at their appropriate age level. Pathetic. I bet their parents are very proud. Props to All Greys for rising above it.

Same HHH too.

PB Revolution gave Crabs all they could handle at Big 4 HHH last weekend. Crabs won by one goal but game could have gone either way.

91 is not entered in the 2020 Div at all. Am I missing something ?

PB Revolution lost to HHH. Which was the only game HHH won. I seriously doubt the crabs played their starters much if at all in that game. You really shouldn't come on here guns ablazing when your team is average at best.

Igloo is a solid team as is the Express second team. Having played them both i think some of those kids are interchangeable with the Express A team kids. Express B just seems to be a little more inconsistent in play as is Igloo.

The results from this weekend makes it look like Legacy A and Legacy B are very similar teams.

listen this 2020 division is very good all around. BBL lost to Looneys by 1. Anything can happen. some teams play some teams tough all the time. BBL is a very good team. Do you really have to be in the top 5 to be good? There are at least 15 top 2020 teams. Crush is an anomaly. Looneys is next because of their face off guy and then there are 10 that can beat each other.

Taz and the B team in the same travel group that Taz is a part of are very similar in talent level now. Taz lost their best player from last year to The Terps.

Which one , the one loosing f/os and throwing tantrums?

Wait wait wait Legacy B went further than Taz Bhahaha hahaha

They only won by one because the face off kid wasn't there

Isn't coach taking a team to WSYL again? Would guess focus is on that right now.

UA not bad in selectings the Command team. Outside of ONE GLARING pick. Why take him and not a middie.

Thought you had to live on LI to be on LI UA team.

2020 kids go8ng as 2021 team oh yeah that's right it's a birthrate thing. Way to stoop to the low ground of ethics.

So that makes it at least 12 teams that Madlax can't beat.

He was there Mr. Flogo was 100% there
