I don't think this is true.
I think that you are full of .....!
Nobody was hanging around after the tournament in the rain.
Sign your name and who you spoke with!

One of the YJ Jabroni Dads was crowing about going 3-0 and how much better they are this year, but look at their schedule?

How is the Janelli team going to Nationals when they did not win a single tournament last year or even make the playoffs in any events? They didn't beat a single good team all year in tournament play (91 even blew them out) and they ducked the good teams all fall letting Lomo play the A schedule.

I guess it really is who you know, unless CR is using them as the sacrificial lamb with the plan of Splalina taking Nationals and Lomo taking the Mid Atlantic.

Makes no sense otherwise.

"Maybe CR doesnt think LOMO can compete in Nationals"

But Janel can????? no logic there.

His team is flush with new talent in addition to trimming the tree a bit and is going to surprise some people this year. And now for the bad news, enjoy it while it lasts as JS is going to take your best player/players like he did last year even though they will likely never see the field.

Must be tough spending all that money on hotels and never see your kid touch the field. At least you get a few "free" t shirts and your name on a chair.

Is YJ Spallina really playing down against 5th graders? That's messed up.

Congrats to Spallina on another championship! Question regarding the roster, it seems like he has 30 girls on the roster, and only 15/16 girls play. Are parents blinded by being on this team and winning? Why would you pay all of this money to ride the bench.

I wouldn't do it myself, especially at this young age, but some might think the coaching and connections he brings are worth it. People said the same thing about his boys 2020 Crush team - guess it depends on what you're after.

Winning cures all I guess. Just would rather pay money and have my daughter play. Seemed like YJ got the easiest draw at Indoor Lax Championship. M&D has a tough draw! Heros pool was cupcakes, at least they had to play M&D in the semis. The earlier pool had M&D, YJ, Heros and Ct Grizzlies all in the same pool. That would have been fun to watch.

YJ coaches daughter plays the whole game, How about playing your whole roster, and rotating in and out the whole game. Develop the girls at the bottom of the bench, and why even have a second goalie if she is not playing. Hero's and M&D utilize their whole team, if they kept the top girls in all game, i would believe they would be unbelievable too. No mention of rotating your defense and attack?

I will preface this by saying my daughter does play for M&D so I have no love loss for Hero's but come on. Heros doesnt have anyone close to ability to the top 5/6 YJ kids and the coaches daughter is on another level. You got beat badly accept it and move on and for the record they would of done the same to us so I am just being honest. Was good for our kids to see the level of sticks skills. As parents it is tough some times to motivate but for the kids to see other girls their ages with stick skills like they had was an eye opener. I Think this will motivate our coaches to amp up the training and I do believe with a full roster M&D is a touch ahead of Hero's but we will find that out this spring. How would others rank the next 4 or 5 teams CT Grizzlies, Skywalkers, Primetime, Eaglestix Pride

YJ did sub in the Championship game...the backup goalie got 90 seconds vs Hero's.

How did it go down there?

Watched the semi finals and championship with my daughter With the semi finals we watched both best we could but after YJ game was lopsided we watched a great M&D Heros game M&D hung in there while missing many key players according to the parent squad. My overall thoughts are the YJ team is light years ahead in this age group WOW is all I have to say. Yj was up by 10 plus against a very good heros team most of the game, YJ was running Middie lines and their attack is unguardable especially what I am guessing is the Coaches daughter she was very very impressive and scored or assisted most of the goals. Hero's played well vs M&D and I saw them earlier in a game and they have some great size and scoring Overall the tournament was well run and so much fun for the kids One draw to start each half kids had a great time so many goals and touches

There were some players that switched between the Big 3 teams down here in MD. The guilty parties try to paint a picture how all the kids and parents get along so well. The truth is there were some back door deals especially kids that were gifted onto our Hero's team. Our coaches should be ashamed how it was handled especially with the attack
