BOTC - US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums NORTHEAST LACROSSE BOTC MAIN FORUM (LI, CT, WC) Boys 2022 -9th Grade Fall 2018/Summer 2019

Crabs got blown out by FCA at Crab Feast and then got knocked out of the semis at Young Guns by 3D Colorado. Good team, but they didn't finish strong. Leading Edge lost 3 in a row at Crab Feast to Roughriders, Eclipse and 3D New England.

Crabs also went to finals of NLF National Championship a couple weeks later. Crabs beat Primetime easily twice last summer. Crabs beat HHH easily last summer. Crabs blew out RR. Crabs beat DC Express. These rankings are notIntelligent and meaningless. All these teams lost games to teams they shouldn't. You know why? Because they were in 8th grade!! FCA is always motivated against Crabs. Who else has FCA beaten in last two years? Hawks lost to teams they shouldn't have. 91 Smash stinks if Jr isn't playing with them. 91 MD was good in the summer but sucked in the spring with just MD kids. Just let the kids play and have fun. All the teams are good and all the teams have good players.

Rising Sons will make it into the top tier this Fall.

Freedom is Tier 1

How about Express Black and Orange at Blatant.

The players who were cut by HHH 2 years ago were picked up by Freedom. Tier 2 at best. Mesa and HHH are playing on the 28th. Make it a play day?

Express black and orange at blatant is Chaney split in half!

The AA team and the ? team. This will do wonders for a players confidence.

I'd rather play half the team instead of playing a team with a 40+ roster!

40 man roster. I can’t believe people actually pay for that. Come summer he plays 12-15 kids tops. Fall everyone plays. Checks get cashed, people are happy thinking they will play, then summer rolls around and they sit. Guys a genius.

They all know the situation going in. People want to be part of an elite team and have their kids practicing with the best players.

Real Question - is Elite 80 worth it or should you wait another year? Thanks.

How much does the Elite 80 cost ?

475

Clinic and experience value probably good. Recruiting value, very little to zero in my opinion.

It was terrible last year. They did not have enough 2022 kids so they combined with 2023. The talent was hardly "Elite" Total money grab

Not true, he talks up a great game, then does what he wants to do. Some know the deal but the newcomers don't always know. Then he continually tries to poach players all year long......

Is the Force team playing on Blatant this weekend from LI, are they any good??

Unless they added over the summer, they might have a tough go.

There is two types. People that made the team and belong and then why are the team group. When the teams are split this weekend the lesser of the split should be in the B bracket. They will not win a game in the A bracket.

Who the heck are the LI Goats?

LI Goats= The Moms from YJ on sidelines

Must be the reason, because it's certainly not to get recruited or even get better. Skills developed by playing in an actual game are FAR different than what one gains in practice.

Yup and this will get serious over the next few years. No way will the bench kids play at showcases. Club PR is all about recruiting. IMHO 91 should let all those Crush kids play for free this year. They have brought so much good PR for 91 based on their accomplishments and commitments.

I agree being use to a good practice will help him when playing club in college.

Don't hold your breath.....

Who is rebels LI Storm? I see they are in the A bracket for the Blatant. I've never even heard of them.

They are a pick up team! Someone put a team together and called themselves the GOATS

Check out the Blatant, all the promoting and tough talk and the Rebels staying clear of Igloo,haha!

Yes, rebels teed themselves up the lightest schedule. Funny, although if/ when they play the better teams they will get smoked and then...”rebels don’t duck nobody”...”rebels were in there for the first half”...etc.”

They are another start up. I'm guessing another B team, just what we need. LoL

Checked out the Rebels schedule on their website, if their ducking other teams in their own back yard how are they goons fair in all these tough tournes their scheduled for?

Not well

What freshman will shake up Long Island

Heard the outlaws combined with the knights what name are they going under?

Team waste of time. Didn’t work well for the 2025s.

Some really good games at Blatant today in the A division! Should be a interesting season by summer when teams are at full force and jelling together. Their are a lot of really talented kids out their.

Who won. How are the rebels. Is lie black Chaney’s team.

You need to work on your there vs their. Regardless, what really good games and what is interesting about the fact that Express is the best team around, maybe 91 is in the same category. Express beats igloo every time they play and igloo beats every other team. As predicted, rebels played the weakest teams and then got smoked by express. Same old story.

What was the score of that game? Who was the other LIE team?
