This is a very correct statement. SW White against a top 2019 team (pick any one of them ... YJ, M&D, Heros, Mass Elite, Capital, SW Blue etc.) would not even be a game. I'm talking name your score type of game. Is what it is. 2nd teams have become depleted in talent as more clubs have opened shop. Forget about 3rd teams.

No rose colored evaluations and no YJ chest thumping in the above post but you do seem to have some pent-up hostility towards this program? Theres lots of great great talent out there and sometimes it’s better to be a big fish in a small pound then a small fish in a big pond. At the end of the day everybody has choices and if you’re happy great if not look for other options. I have seen many top kids from other programs come to YJ end up riding the bench and vice versa .

There is no way YJ C will beat liberty or TG A teams. But we will never know because YJC plays in the bottom brackets while liberty and TG play in the top. So you go on being a big fish in your little pond playing in front of no one. Good luck. [/quote]

We left TG Black and were "placed on" YJ C. At first we were pissed, but to be honest, YJ C has girls that can play. Comparable to what we had at TG. You are right about one thing, we don't play in the top bracket and only had one or two coaches check us out this Fall. That's fine, these girls aren't going to get recruited by Maryland, Hopkins, etc. They'll get recruited in another year or two by mid to lower D1 or a D3 school that has a good lacrosse program with EXCELLENT academics. And that's what it's all about. So go ahead and keep beating your chest to all the guys at work about the coaches on the sidelines, while the cutthroat and competition eats at every parent (there's a reason you look at those sidelines and see all the parents spread out, you can't sit too close to people if all you do is criticize the other players). We'll enjoy watching our girls play good lacrosse while we talk about which Green Turlte to have the team dinner at, the one we all look forward to. To each his own.

Ouch. You can sugar coat anyway you want but leaving any A team for a C team is terrible for exposure. No way is YJ C comparable to TG black but to each his own. Enjoy Green Turtle.

TG Black is decimated, and is on par with YJ B & C. Still good lacrosse though, just not YJ A level.

YJ B & C are both weak.

I totally agree, but that wasn't the point. The point was that the top club B teams are not as competitive as they once were due to the abundance of other options. I doubt that you want to argue that SW 2019 White can compete with the top clubs. Not long ago, SW White, M&D Red, YJ Gold, Heros White, etc could all compete and in many cases beat other very good teams. This just isn't the case anymore.[/quote]

Not sure how 2019 got on 2021 thread. At any rate, 2019 SW White and YJ C play close games.They traded wins last year. Not sure how deep 2021 is but the 2019 very deep. Not suggesting either team belongs in the top division, but both teams are way better than any other club's B team.

“‘TG Black is decimated, and is on par with YJ B & C. Still good lacrosse though, just not YJ A level”


For every player that leaves there’s a replacement of equal or better caliber that takes the spot.
Saying they got decimated is silly and sounds like sour grapes.

Nice try, nobody's biting

NO way replacement players are ever better than kids who leave, the bottom 2/3 of the roster on any TG black team is full of dead wood

The replacement players this season are much better than the girls lost from last season. The team will be better without the ones who left. The atmosphere and play of the team was already better this fall. 2Wi4jV

They got 1 good player. The others came from YJ B and C.

You need to let it go, as painful as it may feel the team will be just fine without your daughter.

It must be difficult living ur life every day and having so much hateful jealous energy inside and directed at a couple of 14 year old girls.
We all feel truly sorry that u can’t seem to shake them and I’d even suggest therapy.
Funny thing is, I know who those girls are that u constantly slander and I’ve seen their videos on instagram

. Truth be told...They are AMAZING.

Oh and let me save u the trouble of typing in ur next post.
“OK dad (mom)...”.

Have an AMAZING day 😎.

Use the quote button. What are you referencing, didn't see any slander or hate. Paranoid much?

Listen, the original post stated that "B" level teams were not what they used to be and then went on to name SW and M&D specifically. This is not true. Yes, there are "B" level teams that are struggling due to more clubs opening shop. Look at MD United, Integrity, Bay Area, and who knows how many of your LI teams that have had "B" teams fold or become defunct, Top Guns, Legacy, Elevate, etc.

While this is a 2021 post, it was the original poster that brought this up. SW, Hero's, and LI YJ have strong "B" teams that consistently beat top level talent. No, not M&D Black, Heros Green, TG Black, Mass Elite, Capital (These are the top teams in the country) etc., but they definitely beat some top A level contending teams. When you bring up information that is not "grounded in evidence", then don't bring it up. If you need scores, results, etc. hit me up. You have no clue what you are talking about.

This is a very correct statement. SW White against a top 2019 team (pick any one of them ... YJ, M&D, Heros, Mass Elite, Capital, SW Blue etc.) would not even be a game.

Not sure how 2019 got on 2021 thread. At any rate, 2019 SW White and YJ C play close games.They traded wins last year. Not sure how deep 2021 is but the 2019 very deep. Not suggesting either team belongs in the top division, but both teams are way better than any other club's B team. [/quote]

Um ... SW white 2021 lost to Steps White (B team) and SW White 2019 lost to SJS Black (B team) at G8 alone last year. Soooo, I guess you lie? exaggerate?? hmmmm

Sure. Give us scores of SW White beating "top A level contending teams". You just said (and are correct) that they can't beat the top A level contending teams that you named so I'm a bit confused. Because those are the top A level contending teams, see what I mean?

SW.....please go away. Go to the Maryland thread.

How does spring lacrosse work in various states? In Maryland is there any community lacrosse left or does everyone play club year round? How about Long Island? I believe that Westchester and Connecticut still play for their town in the spring and then play club the rest of the year. Would be interested to know how much town lacrosse is left.

2021's are in High School. No spring club lacrosse anywhere that I know of.

How many 2021 are playing varsity and where?

Who cares, team game...its about winning...go work on your kids highlight reel...loser

The few committed ones (and the one that claims to be)

They are killing it on JV.

thats really not hard to do lmao

thats really not hard to do lmao

I hear a bunch of the 2021s are really lighting it up this year.

oh please do share, what towns?

ESM and Mt Sinai starting goalies are both 2021's, two top teams with Freshman in the cage.

That didnt take long...

Thanks dad

Is there a better team then the Skywalkers?

After the first week, not yet

Who are the skywalkers. Go back to your star wars movie dad.

Yes there are multiple better teams and “then” the Skywalkers😉

Long Island UA Command team has:
11 YJ 2021 girls
2 YJ 2022 girl

Pretty sure that shuts up the other LI clubs as to who is the best.

This post is so stupid I can’t even understand who they are trying to
incite

Who was evaluating?

Skywalkers are from Maryland. What do the inferior Long Island teams have to do with this discussion? Skywalkers schooled YJ last time they played 11-4.

rosters aren't posted yet?

MAYBE NOT EVERYONE WAS AT THE TRYOUTS

How many YJ b players made it

Not yet. This is link for rosters when they do.
