M&D, Heros, Skywalkers, Capital, TLC, Mass Elite probably more ... All at least as good. In the case of M&D, not even a discussion.

The YJ B team is almost as good as A. But A isn't as good as a usual YJ team. And look out below the 19's. It goes downhill from there. No wonder CR is trying to get out now.

Yep. The 20's are not good, and since she can read the writing on the tarnished wall, she is punching out! Doesn't want to go down with the ship.

I don't think your making any friends with the Heros parents, I'm pretty sure they would like to be left out of this discussion.

I would say based on results they are all evenly matched. Not sure if Mass elite belongs in that group

What results are you looking at? co-champs spring club championships, finalist summer genesis, champs nat draw, champs lax for the cure, champs u15...in championship format tournaments...2-0 vs M&D, 4-0 vs heros, 1-0 vs capital...lost to skywalkers in summer genesis final...other teams never made it deep enough in tourney to play yj...it all started with some jacka$$ stating team wasnt any good and ATLEAST 4 teams were better than them...choke on the results

I was the poster sticking up for them, but in typical YJ fashion you have to start pounding your chest and leave out some results that suit you. How about G8

Evidently the "G" in G8 doesn't stand for great. Any tournament with Md United and YJ 19 in it is not great. Wait...maybe the "G" stands for Good. That makes more sense.

On Long Island the best two teams in this age group are YJ and Liberty - we have played almost all teams in this age group from LI and these two teams are very good.

First of all the Ivies have great need-based help so u very well might get some money. The grades depend on how good your daughter is and which Ivy. Hasn't the coach told you? standard comment is A's and B's in the toughest courses (honors/AP) preferably more As than Bs. But the best recruit can be a bit lower, a weaker lax player can be recruited for great grades.

No the coach didn't bring it up when we met. Going for a second visit in a couple weeks. Guess I will find out then.

the only school interested is an IVY? i'll venture a guess that she is an exceptional student . as previous poster pointed out the teams need a GPA stud to raise the whole teams overall GPA.

well I misspoke on that. 3 or 4 other schools have reached out but she doesn't like them for one reason or another. so my worry is the grades- a 3.3 GPA. maybe I should be proactive and bring it up to them before I drive 2 hours.

A 3.3 wont work unless she's an absolute star. Also, she will need at least a 1350 SAT. Again, unless she's a star.

At Ivy's it is all about the academic index and they take UNWEIGHTED GPAs. So you can't take no AP or Honors classes, but an A counts equally in their formula AP/Honors class or not which is why the Ivy coaches will tell you only take AP/Honors in the subjects your kid is trongest in, regular classes in the others. And test scores - ACT or SAT - counts 2x your GPA for Academic Index (AI) calculations, so test scores matter a lot and can be very valuable to an Ivy coach. They have some leeway for the highest rated recruits as they need to hit an overall AI score for the whole class.

Don't panic and do not listen to the majority of trolls on this site.

There are some on this sight who can offer valuable insight but most are jealous, bitter, know nothing haters.

If an Ivy is expressing interest go take a look and hear what the coach has to say. Let the coach tell you and your daughter what GPA and Test scores she will need. She is a 2019 right? There is time to pull the grades and test scores up if you need to. I do not know the Index minimum but I do know that if the coach really wants your daughter they will wait and see if she can get the required marks. Don't listen to anyone on this site who tells you that you need to have xyz in order to get into an Ivy or you will only get xyz scholarship or you will not be able to get a real degree. They are jealous, bitter, hateful POS. They think because it didn't happen for their daughter it can't happen for your daughter.

It can happen. Your daughter can find a great fit. Go for gold and always listen to the schools who express interest.

Ivy's have a need based tuition. It is a little different for each Ivy, but they are all pretty close, since their Alumni endowment is larger than most schools. They also take into account other financial obligations you have and where you live. If your making $125k on LI, you will probably get 30-40k in aid. The link below is the aid calculator Princeton uses and is pretty accurate. So don't stress too much. Good luck!

So I'm confused.

If my kid is a 2019 and is committed should I:

A. Feel like a bad parent for letting them commit at a young age.
B. Realize that they will never get a good education because you can't at a D1 program

C. Fret that they will be forced to pick a major they don't want
D. Automatically assume they will never see the field
E. Realize there are a lot of jealous, uninformed parents out there always looking to put kids and their families down

Hmmm.

maybe this doesn't need to go all the way to Z. has anyone looked at the photos of fall ball play days on Laxmagazine? the game is flat physical. gotta be the most physical game this side of football. these girls are jacked, and they just get that stick straight sideways and jam it into the offensive players ribs!!

all these sophomores need to be hitting the weights big time if they have any hope of surviving the punishment the game dishes out in college...no wonder the girls have black and blue tri's at the end of a season. viscous.

I completely agree. they all play very close games and on any given day the games can go either way...just think Steps needs to be mentioned in the conversation once in a while. all good
