Don't believe Looney's Orange 2020 played in that showcase this past summer.

So far today: Edge beat Express (to be expected) Sweetlax beat Laxachusettes

Correction - EXPRESS BEAT EDGE CANADA

So did crush win all their games or lose to Edge? I don't understand what you are saying. Either they win all their games or they lost one. Clarify please.

Saw crush play sweetlax. Tons of committed kids It was sweetlax national squad. After sweetlax beat up Laxachusetts and express they lost to crush by 6/7 lost track. Thought HHH Looked improved as well it's just so hard to tell in fall

Thank you express dad for your thoughts

Well, Express was beat down today by Sweetlax, how do you put them where they are?? Give me a break Express Dad. When your best player goes down, so does the whole team

That was the Sweetlax National Team. They are good. More than half of the starters ade committed. Best team on the Hill today

in relation to the match up with Team 91 crush

Fixed it for you: Edge is missing it's top 4 offensive players and top 2 D men that are playing on age as 2018's in AAA hockey, but play lacrosse as 2020's to land scholarship to US school in case they dont catch on in hockey.

Stop the whining, all teams have hold backs, if you can't compete then you shouldn't play, life is not always fair. This is coming from a parent of an on age kid. I'm sick of hearing about this. My kid stepped up, how bout yours does the same!

Good for you, but there is something else to consider. Holdbacks, being one a one year holdback is one thing, but having double holdbacks is way out of line and over the top. 2018's should in no way be playing 2020 club lacrosse, they are double holdbacks.
Now, if you are sick of hearing about this then don't read it. Not that difficult. Just don't read it.

Those boys must feel very tough running over kids they are 2/3 years older than

Crush beat edge by 1 and beat up on BBL and Sweet lax National

There are double holdbacks - I talked to a dad who said his son is turning 16 a week or so. Very nice guy, offered it up during our conversation. It has an impact but there's nothing you can do about it given the system.

Many people, if not most, have no respect for the Edge program, All of their players are older at every level, its just the way it is. But... to have 2018's playing on a 2018 hockey team but playing on a 2020 lacrosse team is absolutely wrong and is cheating and gaming the system way over the top.



Also, most are tiered of hearing that is the way their school system is and that is way blah blah blah. Then how come these 2018's play on a 2018 hockey team but on a 2020 lacrosse team. Simple, because they are way older than most 2020 lacrosse players.
I saw Edge play Looney's last fall in a tournament in Bel Air, Md. and it was the most disgusting game I have ever seen in youth lacrosse. Edge players much older and bigger and all they were trying to do was physically injure the other teams players. There were so many penalties against Edge I lost count. The refs called the game with about 3 or 4 minutes left, that's how bad it was. Bright spot, Looney's beat these thugs 9 or 10 to 1.

crabs, crush, FCA, laxachucettes, edge, Looneys are top teams who have them. Many others do as well, but are not top teams so nobody cares. Not sure what anybody's point here is. Sounds like someone is making excuses because johnny can't compete. Stop your whining if you are on age, if you are lucky you will make it to college and probably have a 20 yr old roommate

The entire Edge team is born in 2001. Our whole team will have turned 15 by December 31st. The team reclassed after playing tournaments against 2019 teams who were a year or two older then them. Why do parents keep saying their kids are born in 2002. It's extremely obvious the difference between a 2001 and 2002 born player.

As for the Looneys game ONE YEAR AGO. I agree that it was a disgrace as the kids were beating up on the THEN more skilled Looneys team. If you have watched our team this fall you would know that it is way different. Our Edge team can beat any team in the country, including 89+2. We lost by one while missing one of our Hopkins middies, a top pole, and two of our three starting attack with injuries and hockey. Let's see what happens next weekend in Long Island😀

. True, those clubs mentioned, other than Crabs, have a few holdbacks but not to the extent of Crabs, with a majority of their roster with holdbacks and double holdbacks. Edge is even worse. The point is, since you can't seem to grasp it is most are sick of the holdbacks. No one is whining but you. You seem to have a problem with on age kids, which leaves me to believe you have a holdback or double holdback. Pathetic. As for Edge, who gives a ratsa*s about their school system. 2018's shouldn't be playing 2020 lacrosse. If Edge wants to play in the US tournaments, 2018 year olds from Edge play in that age group, regardless of their graduation year. If not, stay the [lacrosse] in Canada and play each other. Now Mr whinner, what do you think?
