Actually 2 kids from Massapequa got screwed. The Attack and the middie.

Read slowly... That many 2017's made the team? Because they're better than all the 2015's? No they're the same age as the 2015's that made it. And most of your 2015's are way too old.

Rules said you had to show to move on or be considered, conflict or not, no exceptions. Giving spots to those who don't show? If I were a 2019 attackman I would ask for a refund.

The main page for UA says "Players selected to the 22 player roster must have registered and checked in on the first day of the tryout. No exceptions." And then if you do some searching (and call the organizers who tell you where to look buried in the FAQs) you find " Player must submit and official letter documenting excuse for missing to lacrosse@corrigansports.com at least one week before tryout. All requests will be reviewed and Player may be granted special permission and instruction to check in on day two of the tryout." So there no exceptions except for the exceptions. Or you can parse words and "check in" to get your pinnie and then head to the All County Dinner with plenty of time to spare.

just checked uncomit game list. There is no mass middie listed? Found 3 express ? whats up?

I agree, it is a shame that Massapequa kid didn't get a look here. I too thought he was one of the best on the field. Maybe he is committed. who knows, maybe thats why he isnt list on uncommitted team. Stranger things have been known to happen.

As far as 2019 middies, I only see 1 exprees & 1 4 Love, and a 91 Golaie. Only 3 from LI out of the 40 on the uncommitted?

I heard they thought the size wasn't there so they needed the others ..Every team is different

One of the goalies made team, didn't go to day one of trouts how does that work ? Oh yeah $$$

Trust me , no one is buying their way on a 2019 team anymore. Maybe 2/3 years ago. Not when the sidelines of the AA teams are lined with college coaches. How many did u see at Laxfest ?

The NJ "Evaluators" were directors or coaches of 4 well-known club teams. They supposedly can't nominate their own players, but they sure as [lacrosse] can agree to nominate each others. A shameful conflict of interest, considering that for every kid they get placed on the roster they can charge an extra $300 per head for whole program the following year. The roster is almost evenly divided by kids either from those 4 teams or headed to those teams at some point this month.

I love the fact that the under armour uncommitted 2019 team has a kid from Florida with a December 99 birthdate. I find that pathetic. Of course you look good playing against kids that much younger.

If your team faces Madlax 2019 this weekend, make sure to ask their parents why they have a 2018 kids on their team who is still enrolled in the class of 2018.

Publicly shaming them is the only way to stop this nonsense.

Can anyone please tell me who I should be paying off to get my son a spot at Jake Reed?

This is a serious question.

3 players miraculously got invited to attend next week.

They did not fly to FL, rent a car for 3 days, spend 2-3 days at hotels, meals, beverages and snacks at blue chip,tips for hotel, airport, etc.

The boys never missed a day from school

I, too, am willing to pay in order not to incur the hassle, headache and worry that my son is not going to make it.

3 days easily cost me $1300.

My son does have the peace of mind that he made it on his own merit.

Can anyone, especially the parents of the players who miraculously were granted a spot reply.

Where can I find the list? I need a good laugh.
I googled Jake Reed 2019 and got last years list.

Maybe if your son was a better player, you would have the answer too!

JACKASS, I told you my son GOT INVITED ON HOS OWN MERIT.

You said he didn't get a free pass MORON, so he made it, yippee, but he obviously wasn't in the tier of players who didn't have to bother. It's either because of his ability or your parenting that he didn't get the break.

Based on your dumb post and then your even dumber reaction, I think the spotlight might need to be on you.

This isn't waiting in line for concert tickets first come first served. If mr X from 88+3 says I have 3 kids u need to see then they will be invited. If they deserve it who cares.

The parents of the players who spent &$$$, took time off from work and missed school.

The wondering/ worrying of your son made the cut--he played well, was told he did well---

All could be avoided if you knew who to payoff.

No way this player/s are superstars who came into their own one week prior to check-in at UMBC.

So please, stop justifying the fact that the Directie was paid off.

No one is "paid off". Some kids are just that good. You think Mr X from 91 is going to send an underachiever to JR with his reputation ?? No. The kids who get the automatic invites are the best of the best. Deal with it. Since when is this whole process fair anyway ?

YES, I know Mr C is sending an under achieving attackman to JR. The kid is at my hotel.

He did not go to FL. He is adequate- at best. $$$$$$ talks and MC listens.
I agree, best of the best get direct invite. That was back in February. Not last Friday, 6/23.

No where did o question fairness. I know how that goes.

Once again, I am asking:

Whom do I drop my envelop off to?

That way I do not have to take time off from work dmf my son does not need to miss classes.

He can just want up at registration and pick up his pinney.
