NXT beat Team 11 in spring league today. Spring break fluke or has NXT turned the corner? NXT has not turned the corner Not based on the game I saw yesterday, no. The question is how many guest players did Freedom have? Ooooooh!! Ooooohhhh! I know this one!! The answer is ZERO. Hate all you want, but that team had zero guest players and was actually missing multiple players. Freedom parent here.... No guest players sorry. NXT still not turning the corner

When you have had as bad a run as RR has maybe you do.... They don't have an A team where they can pull players from so I have to imagine the pitch to a potential guest player was something like, "Hey, I know we're not a good B team and you're a stud AA player, but could you possibly come to our B tournament and help us win the B championship?" How many studs would take anyone up on that kind of an offer? Not many.

Low A/B level tournament that Duke's Nationals loves to attend so they can beat up on other teams. Here's the TourneyMachine https://www.tourneymachine.com/Publ...rnament=h201905151854342199e7d13d90b0443

Suggesting that the kids were bigger was not a dig at the team, it was simply an observation. Frankly, I could care less who was on the team, my son's team played them, it was not as if there was some type of unfair advantage. Either way, it's not comparable to bringing the Dukes or True national teams, the BL academy team is not at that level.

Presumably they were short players and brought Academy kids to play. That's fine, but to say Zeus won the tournament is a bit misleading....would they have won without those Academy kids? Only those at the games would know that. I'm sure they are solid players if they are in the academy.

Other than social media bragging rights, the wins/losses of a particular team are irrelevant (except maybe to a BL/Zeus hater). These boys are headed to high school in the fall, the weight is on players to prove themselves individually if they hope to play at the next level.

No, it's not wrong, you are either not involved with the team or just lying. They used kids that are not on Zeus or the BL Academy team.

If that is the best they can do with guest players, holdbacks, etc, definitely not worth it. Yes, they won the tournament, but they are nowhere near the talent level of the other holdback and national teams.

You mean the Academy kids? It was 2 academy kids and mesa backup goalie. BL needed a goalie and since you cant play without one they borrowed one. The two academy kids willingly wanted to play for BL.
