BOTC - US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums MID-ATLANTIC LACROSSE MARYLAND FORUM Girls 2023-8th Grade Fall 2018/Summer 2019

Maryland parents have had this coming for a while. We never could stand Bif and Tod obnoxiously cheering and jeering. LI back up top where they belong. Prep school holdbacks will never have the grit of the LI girls.

Coaching...2 huge pickups for M&D

What is your gibberish about? Are you lost?

Why arent these Maryland teams at Nationals?

They are at the beach enjoying the short summer they have left. Have fun at Nationals.

Everyone knows nationals are a complete joke and waste of time. . The best teams are never there.

The last "real" summer tourney has always been MidAtlantic Summer Club Championships. Nationals is a complete money grab and thus many top teams not there. Lax should be over no later than mid-July. Let the girls have a little bit of summer vacation.

Nationals were last weekend at the Mid Atlantic you must of missed it all the top teams were there.

And the remaining top teams still playing lacrosse are at the Capital Cup - definitely not at Nationals.

Anyone know how the top teams changed? SW, M&D and Hero's rosters.

M&D got two of Heroes key players

Skywalker's picked up TLC's best player and two of Starz's best players.

Capitol Cup is for 2022, 2021, 2020 and open, no 2023s playing there!!!

LOL Would someone please engage this M&D parent and acknowledge their pick up. I do not think having athletes was ever M&Ds issue. Selfish play is another thing.

Wow so excited

Anyone know how many key pick ups M&D got? Asking for a friend.

I guess they should never lose again, now.

They picked up 2 of Hero's best players. They were really good before.. Scary good now.

Oh please - just get over yourself already.
If you can score a goal a certain way, its going to go in.
If their stars are not all aligned, it doesn't work for them.
Sure, our team lost to them a few times this year, but not by much. I guess we thought that we'd be more impressed, or come away from the game wide-eyed at what just happened.. Their ratio of goals attempted vs scored was way high, lots hit the pipe or just missed. When we played YJ we were much more OK with losing because they hit us like a bear!

So you prefer pummelings over close games. OK.
If YJ hit you like a bear in your loss to them, and you were ok with that, then my guess is M&D missed shots in their game against you because they were playing down to your team’s level. My second guess is they probably paid for playing down to your team’s level at the next practice, with a ton of running and shooting.

They are all yours and enjoy. You get what you brag about. Drama joining drama. Sounds like a fun bonding event. Only so much PT to go around and the position guarantees to jump ship will knock a few M&D players out of their comfortable positions. That says a lot about a coaches lack of ability to develop. I am certain there will be a lot of face smiles while undercutting behinds the scenes.

Brag all you want about being scary good and your showcase victories. I bet the book bags and T-shirts will be amazing.

Say what you want about Heros. They maintain a proper number of field players to achieve what the true objective is...playing, development, and views. And the whole team actually like each other.

TG out coaches M&D. They do not have half the athletes that M&D has. Neither do a lot of teams, but yet...they lose. So be sure to come back and remind us all how much scarier M&D is once the year is over.
