Why is it so difficult to comprehend that being a great rising sophomore and playing for a subpar A conference team can be mutually exclusive.

When the MIAA school that has the most representation on a UA roster is Spalding the books are cooked. A JV and Varsity squad that couldn’t make the playoffs but has the 5 best 10th graders in the league. More than Calvert Hall? more than McDonogh? More than St. Marys? Come on now...

Yes we are jealous of Spalding because of its proximity to BWI and Shake Shack.

What does 10 graders have to do with winning MIAA Varsity games ?? Teams win with 9th thru 12th grade players?? or did you think that it was all 10 graders playing Varsity ?? I am sure that McD. BL, CH all have many players besides 10th graders leading their team.

9th and 10th graders make up the Command Team genius. I believe all the kids that made it were on the Varsity roster and - well - Spalding is awful. Next year let’s make the MSJ coach the UA Coach and stack the roster with MSJ players.

Hawks get it done again!! Those boys are ballers.

Shut up and do your talking on the field to quote Johnny Unitas. Next week is Crab Feast. Lots of teams will be gunning for the Hawks.

No fair to throw MSJ coaches in the mix as lacking integrity.... Especially because they do not have a coach at the moment... There are some very good players on the Varsity roster at MSJ..... Don't start throwing them under the bus......

I could put together a squad of the best rising 10th grade lacrosse players in the Mid-Atlantic and they would still finish out of the top 4 in the MIAA assuming the other teams had an upperclass laden roster. What planet are you on??

Crab Feast? LMAO Have you seen the brackets?

What age group are you talking about?

Spaldings JV team can’t keep it done at inside lacrosse tournament the last 3 days with a weak playing field. Losing twice to a 3D pacific team.

Lacrosse is an afterthought at Marty Spalding. Perennial basement dweller in the A League. The vaunted 22 class isn’t gonna save the program. Several of those special 22s are transferring to St Marys. Smart kids. Win in Annapolis or lose in Glen Burnie. Which would you chose?

Or stay in public school with your kid where the AA County School Board just diluted the entire educational experience by doing away with class ranking ostensibly because it was "unfair" to the TOEFL students. Why go to school, just wait to receive the "living wage" from the soon to be in power socialist politicians. The only problem, the folks who actually pay the taxes to fund all of this foolishness will move to lower tax states and nations and you "do gooders" will be left on a proverbial "snipe hunt" to try and find revenue and assets you can tax.

Interesting place to rant about politics

Public School News.......
Best kept secret in the state is the talent accumulating at Catonsville Senior High. The freshman class was the best in the region with top club players from Rough Rider Lacrosse Club. Three kids made UA.
They added a St. Pauls attack to go with the best offensive freshman in the state. Mt. St. Joe's dumpster fire of a program (third coach in 12 months) will likely lose some players to CHS in the coming weeks.
Top staff in the 4A region
Incredible freshman class coming in as well. Loonies top close defender, goalie, two poles and athletic mids from 91.
The team came within a goal of knocking off Howard in the P/O. Keep your eyes open for these kids.

91md2023 won 1 game in three years at the elite level. Looneys won 2 games this year. Not impressive. Throwing around club names is silly.

So you think there aren't very good players on marginal elite teams? That the only kids that will be impact players in HS are all on 2 or 3 teams?

Up until now the 23's were only known by what club they played for - so thank you for throwing the clubs names around. Also, comprehension of the original post must be just too positive for you to understand. It clearly called out a few players from the only team they had been on up until now
Silly is taking a positive quote about an exciting group of boys that are doing good and trashing it without the ability to read it

Catonsville = Public School, Spaulding = Private School
Looneys, 91 = Hawks, API

Looking at the UA rosters you can clearly see daddy ball had a big influence on the command and uncommitted teams. If corrigan sports wants to continue with the UA hype they better wise up. People are starting to see all the BS favoritisms that come with the tryouts.

I’m thinking the Long Island attackmen shouldn’t have made the team because his dad is coaching. Lol. Yours son is better I’m sure.

whole point is to represent your region/area. Now we have players going to other areas just to make teams. This along with the actual process of tryouts is starting to give UA a bad reputation. Many are questioning the UA games .

Should be region based teams and complete unbiased tryouts.. I am a dreamer, never happen i know
