Kind of sad how the 1-2 Madlax zealots here can only bring up Trig denying water to those kids (which is of course indefensible, but has nothing to do with Madlax).

Big 12 was a B tourney.

Caught sweetlax play rock and trust me, there were about 20 coaches on the sideline. Many on that team are apparently already committed so doesn't hurt anyone that a team like that brings in the coaches. Rock coach had many teachable moments when sweetlax was running circles around them offensively and dominating them on defense and that's a good thing. You only get better playing better teams. Tournament was for a good cause, weather was great, facilities were excellent, would like to see scores updated, and B teams can get bigger and better. Win win for everyone.

Where is the Sweetlax National team from?

Hey genius, the organizer of the Big 12 Tourney is the head of Rock.

FCA using blue team players on FCA white is normal operating procedure for them....

Major recruiting events are not there for teams to get better, rather they are there to showcase individual talent. For a Rock, or an FCA White to go to an event like this to "play against the best", is an example of what is causing dilution of talent at former major events. This Fall, the Big 12 essentially became Indian Summer. Sure college coaches were thrilled.

Rock organized this so of course they invited themselves. Their 2020 had a bump in talent due to a bunch of kids leaving 9 1 MD. I think this is 2nd year for this and you can see the results from last fall on tourney machine. Same level of teams this year. So the big 12 became the big 12. If coaches wasted their times they should blame themselves

There are 70 D1 teams which will have 10-15 freshman each year. That means 800+ D1 kids for the class of 2020. So the math says not all of them will come from the 10-15 considered elite 2020 teams in the fall of 2016. There are kids on teams like FCA white that have skill but haven;t grown. Others have the athletic composition but not the skills yet. Some of these kids will break thru and play D1. Others D2, D3. Some will just play in HS or maybe play club in college.

PLus they were probably there to primarily watch 2018 and 2019

FCA has been bait and switching those white team kids for years, same thing will happen to this years 2020 team that happened to the 2019 last year, see ya, thanks for your dues and 3-4 years of rec level coaching and tournaments.

The way they screwed around 2019 white players last year was a travesty, so if their vision was to disgracefully run the team at a balanced budget, they were a great success.

what other programs have two teams at the high school level? None. for a reason. the second team wants the 1st teams experience. cant happen.
