Express has a tournament in Delaware that day

who cares about igloo aa or elite 80!

Igloo and all the coaches and players who went.

coaches were there for the money

And MC goes to things because he likes spending times with your kids? Or you think maybe .....the money?

Can't wait until spring.
What tournament will these two powerhouses meet again?

Try to follow me here: club teams are for profit businesses, college coaches scouting at a program's showcase does not have to be for money, unless you are Igloo which needs all the help it can get trying to expose its players to the college coaches

Igloo will not have trouble getting players placed.
In due time.

That is very naïve if you think Igloo came up with the idea of paying coaches. They are paid at every event. It allows them to recruit and put a little money in the low paid assistant coaches pockets.

I overheard igloo 2022 attack going to Hopkins alraedy! Petro already has sights on him.

Waddle back in your igloo Penguin

Don't have the grades

He said Hopkins, not the Ivies. Grades not an issue.

He said Hopkins, not the Ivies. Grades not an issue.



So you are saying anyone can get in to Hopkins ? Based on his 6th grade report card ? Stop it!!

. Don't know where you are getting your information from but grade are definitely an issue at Hopkins. Don't have the grades you don't get in at Hopkins. Known fact.

The only 2022 attackman on Petro'd radar plays for Express, not igloo

Don't be a fool. Let's not go there about the kids. And for your information Johns Hopkins is one of the top ranked schools.

Hopkins is #10 on US News & World Report

All you elite 80 dummies drinking the cool aid No 22's are being looked at There isn't even a 21 committed yet.

Let's not get crazy now ,express runs 99% of there offense thru there middies, that's about it.

So? The admissions standards for recruited lacrosse players at Hopkins are basically nonexistent. You can't compare Hopkins to even schools like Notre Dame or Duke, much less the Ivies or good NESCACs.

The above re: hopkins and recruited athletes is FACT.

Where are the Dukes out of? Where do they practice and are they a national team as the kids are stating? Just wondering as I have been hearing a lot about this team.

The Dukes are out of Philly. They hold "minicamps" from NY to MD, which are glorified practices. They draw talent from all of the best clubs from NY to MD and the kids involved seem to enjoy it. Minicamps are like 60 bucks a pop on top of fees to be on the team. They are a National team, but who shows up on any given weekend depends on who is available because all these kids play on different teams. They also roster twice as many kids as a normal team and use a travel depth chart to determine who gets to suit up and who doesn't when they have more than enough. Depending on your perspective, it's either a money grab or a way to supplement your kid's playing experience, if he makes the travel cut. There is some daddy ball even in this.

Ha ha you're so funny!

Heard Petro maybe going to Michigan

Very true for non-lacrosse players trying to get in.

Many, many lacrosse players with less than stellar grades have gotten in to JHU.

Ivy leagues have much higher standards.

Yes you can compare the admissions standards of Hopkins to ND or Duke or NESCAC's, even the Ivies. It is not easy to gain acceptance to Hopkins. It is one of the top universities in the US and there is very little, if any, "bending the guidelines" for a lacrosse recruit. You either meet the standards or are not accepted.

You're clearly not very familiar with the recruiting process and shouldn't be commenting as if you are.

Its easy when you are Petro. They looked the other way!

2022 class has a verbal commit all ready ??????? Really?????

They were going to let my son in with a 3.0 and 23 ACT. He is a standout lax player. He decided on a different school, but the offer was made.

Bullah*t. Pure BUL*[lacrosse].

Completely incorrect. Makes no difference who the coach is, the admission standards apply to all. There is a "little" wiggle room at Hopkins, but believe me, not much.

I'm very familiar with the process. My son was recruited and played at Hopkins and graduated in four years. He had the grades etc. but there were a few teammates who just barely met the requirements or were a few ticks below and this is where the "wiggle room" came into play for the coach. JHU only gives the lax coach 2, maybe 3 at most, for players in this category. Hopkins wants new admissions to have the requirements as they want and expect the student to be successful and to graduate with a degree. A few needed an extra semester but did graduate with their degree.

Ok igloo daddy. Only igloo attack worth anything is lefty Personally think Petro has eye on a different lefty attackman ( his son). You people are clowns very entertaining

True, not just for my son, there are others on the roster with similar academics. Fact! My son would have gone, but we were concerned with the ability to maintain eligibility, plus the full tuition at his current school was hard to pass up! You can believe whatever you want, this is what happens when you are a top recruit, much is overlooked, with the exception of the Ivies.

Who exactly are you addressing here? Who are you? just come out and say it already. You obviously are bitter towards somebody so just spill it out buddy!
