all those new players, a new coach and 1 goal to show for it.

How did the 2023 boys do at the elite 80? Who impressed Ty Xanders?

Your point? They would never put that team up against the Bandits!

Held Express to 4 goals...Not too bad

He keeps posting on BOTC. Always sticking his two cents in.

But one of the goals was by the Express GOALIE......not too good....

It was for 2022 and 2021 no 2023s

All those same players, playing together for years, same coach, a goalie goal, and only win by 2! Oh yeah, 3, the one that went through the net no one had the integrity to admit until after the game...

Doesn't say much for Express than...4 goals???

Cornell gave up a goalie goal in a NCAA tournament game. MLL teams give up goalie goals. How bout just kudos to the young goalie. That is always a fun lax play.

Amazing how much hatred people have for S2S. They should play in lesser tourneys so you can all come back and cry that they are beating teams by 10 or more. Enjoy the games. It is almost over for most. Kudos to the Express goalie. My son is a Goalie and that is always his dream play! Sounds like it was an exciting game.

my son knows to bury the goalie if he tries that

There is no hatred with the boys of S2S. I just don't think people like DK. Glad he's not coaching 8th grade.

Express goalie is bigger than most so good luck with that. You may find your son on the wrong end of a beat-down.

Depends on the goalie: 1. Go to youtube 2. Type Scott Rogers Chris Bocklet 3. Revise post.

Your son better be really big, if he tries to bury the Express Goalie that went end to end! That Kid is a Brick House, and would probably run through or over anyone, once he's got a head of steam!

Ha--- That goalie is one of the best at 2023 and truly a brick house-- looks like he is in college--
the only one who would be buried if your son tried that against that express goalie is your son---

That is every goalies dream-- That express goalie is awesome and a good kid

That's because he is a 2022

Thanks for that observation, Express goalie dad...


Thanks for that observation, Express goalie dad...

the kid is prob 16 yrs old playing at 2023 level... when i was a child, that called kids who played down "losers"... today, people say "he missed the cutoff... by 2 years!"

Not a 2022, and he only turned 13 over the summer...

Fake news he played at WSYL where they check and verify.

The goalie is 13-- 2023, 8th grade

who cares how old he is...He should take more shots!!!! Only 3 goals for Express?

Is it true the bandits added 5 or 6 players from the 2022 Smash team that reclassified this year?

dont forget about the florida connection and the directors superstar.28-30 man roster.all of the bandits faithful lookin forward to get in during garbage time.$4500 well spent.least u will get a t shirt if theres enough to go around.....

Know of at least 2 smash players that reclassed. Will never understand the reasoning for this. These kids wil always be looked upon as kids who couldn’t hack it. All are talking about it now.

all who??? the parents of the kids that got pushed to the back of the bus.

No the kids currently in ninth grade laughing at the two boys now in eighth grade, that’s who. Oh yeah, and the parents are talking about it, and not in a good way. Poor boys are being ridiculed by adults and made fun of by kids. But that might get that huge quarter ride to a D1 school. Well worth it.

Exactly. The re-class talk usually ignores the social impact on a kid. Of course he is mocked, viewed as a dummy by everyone. No one says it to the parents face but its a fog that hangs around the kid. That impact much greater than upside of beating up on younger kids for sports glory.

Its really too bad the debate isnt about too many kids playing up. Thats what families should aspire to. Research shows kids who play and work and socialize with older kids elevate themselves and are strivers. Kids held back act dumb and become dumber to fit in. The competitive dads see youth sports stars not what their kid will become as a man.

I don't ever get involved in the holdback debate because honestly its just an old debate that will never change. My son is 13 and will be 14 in April I don't mind him playing against holdbacks it makes him try harder and want to beat them because they are older, just my opinion. However I do like the above post, makes a lot of sense.

.............................
agree with above.my 15 yr old jr has been on varsity since 9th grade. he is a much more mature person/player because of it
#nohonorplayingdown

see yall bitches tomorrow at the tournament..

90+1 keeping it classy. Inflating the scores from today. Wolfpack vs. S2S was only 10-1 not 20-0 they put into tourney machine. Wonder if they over inflated their game against the Machine as well. Wolfpack is a good team you don’t need to over inflate the scores!

It is true two Smash players reclassed. But neither have moved down to the Bandits they have elected to stay on Smash both teams coached by JS No Florida boys there at the tournaments either. Think you need a better source

Congrats 90+1... can't wait till the summer "Hangover" when they can't find "Doug" in Florida and they realize how old "Alan" is.... they are a 2 man Wolfpack.....

Anyone know where the Machine team is from?

Lost 10 to 1 to a team a year younger, priceless!
