BOTC - US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums NORTHEAST LACROSSE BOTC MAIN FORUM (LI, CT, WC) Westchester NY/Fairfield CT Youth Lacrosse

Preds is doing NXT, Long Island Lax Fest and Westchester War Games

Does anyone know of any preseason tourneys for HS varsity teams? Preferably outdoor. Late Feb early March? Westchester based team

Yes I realize that and they all are under the 424 population number. Never said they CHOSE to move down.

But, I believe schools can choose to move up, correct?

Yes they can move up, Yorktown did it a couple of years ago to avoid that strong John Jay team.

Maybe Yorktown should move again. Only two NYS championships in the last quarter century tells the story. Other programs are ascending.

when did yorktown move up to avoid JJ?

2009 or 2010 I think

CT question. How good is SWC for lacrosse? They seem to have plenty of strong youth players but what happens in High School?

What is SWC?

SWC is a HS conf in CT

New Fairfield best team in SWC

Some changes in classes for a few teams this year.
Class "A"- Teams remain the same. Top teams L/P,mahopac,Wappingers,Mamaroneck.
Class "B"- Rye drops out of "B". Top teams Yorktown, John Jay, Somers
Class "C"- This should be Rye's title to lose. Top teams Rye, Hen Hud, Bryam Hills, Pelham
class "D" should be fun to watch this year with Putnam Valley,Briarcliff, Pleasantville moving down to "D" . Top teams P-ville, Briarcliff, bronxville, Westlake.

L/P dropped to B

they have to many kids to drop the are combined 1,364 and cut off is 1,050

Maybe they are 'playing down' (holdback)

Woah. Class D would beat Class A. Or hang very tough. Don't know of any other sport in Section 1 where tiny schools regularly play against and beat the huge schools.

Who is Going to Ice Breakers Tourney this spring?

not trying to be sarcastic, but most teams from the tourney are up on tourney machine

Oops! I hadn't checked. When we signed up they weren't. Thanks!

How will the power issues and potential snow effect the scheduling? Is Yorktown even been open or is it other areas off 202 without power?

Not sure about the scheduling but none of the schools up here including Yorktown have been open since last Thursday due to storm and loss of power and with the coming storm will probably not be open til Friday. Most of the power is back as of today but not all of it.

Section Champs for 2018

B - John Jay

Scarsdale was close last year lost in semi's bye one.
JJ is good but can never count out Town

when is qualifier?

April 7th and 8th on Long Island

We are going Ice Breakers this weekend. We've never been but should be competitive. Teams from Westchester and Fairfield playing when its 35! Hopefully its on turf. Anyone ever been?

--------------------------
Those are the teams.
PT should qualify, Eclipse maybe and others are longshots. Best teams have been together for years and cramming hard this month. Teams assembling pieces and trying to practice in a rush are easy prey.
For a "north" pool, the WSYL doesn't get any teams entering beyond Fairfield County and maybe 1 upstate NY team.

Here's the breakdown:

Blue Division:
Shore2Shore
Sweetlax
True Blue
LI Express B

Green Division:
LI Outlaws
Prime Time
Igloo A
Express North

Red Division:
91 Bandits
Eclipse
2-Way
Igloo B

Yellow Division:
Predators
Legacy
Express A
91 Warriors

Top 3 move on to Wild Card Round (#1 seeds get a bye):
#1: Red 2 plays Blue 3
#2: Yellow 2 Plays Green 3
#3: Red 3 plays Blue 2
#4: Yellow 3 plays Green 2

Quarterfinals:
A: Winner of #1 above plays Yellow #1
B: Winner of #2 above plays Red #1
C: Winner of #3 above plays Green #1
D: Winner of #4 above plays Blue #1

Semis:
Winner of A above plays Winner of B
Winner of C above plays winner of D

Finals:
you get the point

How many teams go to Denver?

Six

JJ hammered Smithtown East, my money is on JJ this year. It had to happen and it may be the new norm--JJ and Town really battling for the Section.

Some good games this week

Bronxville at Mamaroneck
St. Anthony's at Yorktown
Mamaroneck at Pleasantville
John Jay at Manhasset
Darien at Yorktown

Any questions about Yorktown were answered last night. My son plays for Yorktown so yes I am biased but if the team out hustles every team they play this year, could be a special year. I love nothing more than a hard working, high energy team that gives 100%. Big win Town, keep it up.

Yes, great win but something brewing over in Huntington that's not good. Like Jay, you gotta move on to the next opponent. Good luck this season we are all watching.

<yawn>

Mamaroneck crushing Bronxville 16-4, wow
Great win by town

Yeah but then beat by Pleasantville. For a D team, Pleasantville sure is loaded!

Darien looked awesome. Y town not that far behind - may be the best Y town team I have seen since Mariano graduated.
