Re: Boys 2026 Grads - Mid Atlantic Region TheBackOfTheCage #291105 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A Looking forward to fall season starting to see what’s real and what’s total BS on this forum about tryouts and new kids and better teams and worse teams and who is playing in what division and so on. Hawks still on top in Elite? How much change between elite and AAA? Any 2026 clubs fold?

Re: Boys 2026 Grads - Mid Atlantic Region TheBackOfTheCage #291118 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A Can you elaborate on AYLC? Will they have a 2026 team or the talent have also left for True and other clubs?

Hawks dominating as expected.

Heard they might have played at Essex/Dundalk Community College? That's top notch!!!! Oh-boy, AYLC part 2!!!!

Those CCBC teams used to be stacked in the late 90s/early 2000’s. I can’t really speak for how good they are now, as I haven’t followed them at all. Elite players usually aren’t great coaches. And great coaches were rarely elite players.

Now that hilarious.....Bet you'll say academically it's the same as Yale too???? Yes I did. 20 years ago when most of these coaches were probably playing their college lacrosse, the sport was very different. A community college in a heavy lacrosse area like Maryland probably had a better team than most colleges around the country. People used to come from all over to play a year or two at CCBC and then try to transfer out to bigger schools. I’ll stand by my statement. And where did you play your college lacrosse?

Community college programs in this area were top notch back in the day, think this generations post grad schools. I have quite a few friends who started at CCBC and ended their careers in professional leagues.

Re: Boys 2026 Grads - Mid Atlantic Region Anonymous #291165 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A Your son better be the best player on his team for the s you talk , you are clueless about the sport . Where a person played in college has nothing to do with there coaching level , a great player doesnt equal a great coach. According to you every team stinks except the hawks , so why are you so worried about what team are doing .

Club teams and recruiting wasnt nearly what it is nowadays obviously so kids often got overlooked. A year at CC often helped kids move on to bigger and better things.

His kid probably rides the bench anyway, but hey, at least he is on the 42-0 team, right?

I haven’t seen one Hawks comment on being the best, but maybe I missed it somewhere in the posts about 91 being the best 26 team in the area

Re: Boys 2026 Grads - Mid Atlantic Region TheBackOfTheCage #291302 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A Hawks added one Diamondback attack kid. True will have at least 5 or 6 Diamondback kids. True is having supplemental tryouts as they still need more kids. Crabs have a few spots open. Heard Diamondbacks will be playing down under Greenhornets. They have rescinded offers made to their starters that went to True.

The Diamondbacks had some quality wins like repeated wins against BBL and others in HOCO. Why did this happen?

High School brings on new challenges and every kid catches up... No one cares who the best 6th grade team is in Maryland..... No one cares and it really does not matter....
