Watch out! YJ 20's are taking it to the next level trying to lock up all the verbals

at some point they have to submit an SAT score!

Still have yet to hear of a specific kid who got denied admission because their SAT did not meet the minimum so if you are hoping those schools will have a spot open for your daughter think again.

You sound bitter!!

reality can have a bitter taste to it at times - just stating a fact, if you think nobody has ever lost a verbal commitment due to grades you're not living in the real world. Btw a drunken Instagram/facebook post of a kid participating in who knows what will cost them as well, but I'm sure that you never heard of that either.

pick the showcases that have colleges your daughter wants to attend, if not, go to their camps directly... they have them all year round and some on LI.

Boston College has 4 commits in this class... Acacia is working fast.

They have always acted early and their ranking reflects it...not as good as you would think. After they lost Rix and Stanwick ... sunk like a rock

BC recruits as early as anyone if not the earliest and have made offers to many kids still in the 8th grade. They also cast a wide recruiting net. Its a good academic school in a nice location but will not win it all anytime in the foreseeable future.

Dude...FIVE (5) teams have "won it all" in the last 20+ years...so the idea that any team "wont win it all" in the foreseeable future ain't a real big stretch..idea that 97% of the girls playing college lax will ever win it all is pretty remote..so if a kid is good enough to make it into BC --one of the best academic schools in country--s/b good enough for anyone

Every year, there are 5 or more schools that can wit it all...and every year, at least in the women's game, the same teams are--by and large--in the final 4...while it sounds great that there are possibly other teams that can be champs, reality is that it wont happen...

It will happen, there are a handful of teams that will have a chance over the next 8 years. In no particular order: Duke, Syracuse, Penn, USC, Stanford, Boston College and a couple of others could win a National Championship.

Virginia, Penn State and Princeton could all be back in the final four with a chance to win it all again.

Add Northwestern, Maryland and North Carolina to the mix and there are 12 - 15 teams that will have legitimate chances to win a National Championship over the next 8 years (probably more like 15 - 18 teams).

Personally, I think Maryland, North Carolina, Penn State, Syracuse, Northwestern, Duke, USC, Princeton, Penn and Stanford will be the front runners over the next 8 - 10 years.

* Before 2001, this championship was a national collegiate championship.

This could be the dumbest most biased discussion ever on the board. I'm not saying Stony Brook should be on there but if you put Stanford who SB beat by 10 goals!!! And BC who they also beat how couldn't you. Truth is there is no way of telling it changes every year and comes down to who gets hot when it matters. This sounds like a bunch of daddies trying to justify them spending 40k a year. I would add Stony Brook who has been a top 10 last two years , Towson who has been improving greatly, Loyola a perennial top 15 as well. Be fair

Take Stanford and BC off that list and put Florida on it and I agree with all else

Disagree with you on Stanford. Look at next few recruiting classes.

Hey Einstein..my point was that although "anyone can win it in a given year", it does not play out that way at all based on recent history....and every year, there are chants of this is our year!...but if it makes you feel better to know that one of these other schools c/b holding trophy next year, knock yourself out....

Very fair point I agree it's only a matter of time before someone else wins it and think it would be good for the sport

First off I said take those two schools off the list. Second you are saying put Stony Brook on the list. Third if you look at the list of previous champions saying it changes every year and comes down to who gets hot makes you look like you are trying to justify sending your kid to a state school because of the money. Lastly if you are going to say be fair then lets talk about Stony Brooks performance in the tournament the past several years before you say they can win it all.
