[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]2022 team, another year when the entire YJ Blue team is recruited and even a good number of the 22 B team as well to high level academic and lacrosse schools. CR's girls get multiple options. those are the facts. This is the only team in the age group this year sending multiple players to each military academy, multiple to Yale, multiple to Duke and Stonybrook and North Carolina and Maryland. Entire team has already received multiple offers and been recruited because everyone played equally at tourneys and given great recruiting advice. TG usually gets half the roster recruited, you have to feel bad for families that spend their entire time and money summers for years to know they made a mistake staying and drinking the Kool aid. Next year you will see the same thing, just like you did last year, and the year before that and the year before that. how many times do you have to see the same story before you understand that colleges trust the YJ track record. that is why their girls gets recruited at higher rates. The girl from Minn is a nice kid and a good athlete.

False statement the entire Blue team is not committed. Looks like Top Guns have multiple commits to Northwestern, commits to Hopkins, Dartmouth, Notre Dame, Richmond, Loyola I feel sorry for those Kool Aid drinking parents. Lol.

You mean the 2023 #1 ranked team in the USA? They will be just fine. Your jealousy at this stage-of-the-game is pathetic. What was just a phrase that you have used over& over is obviously a deflection & reflection of you-A personal “Dumpster Fire”. I bet as we take inventory of YOU-that what we’ll see 🔥

Considering the Jesters coach almost exclusively played Jesters girls & Leg girl, especially at midfield-the YJ girls were not the main cause of the debacle. While admittedly non of them stepped up either, they were not put in positions to really make much of a difference. Keep your true facts true!

If Thorn showed up, that wouldn't have happened, would it? You rail against the Jester's coach at UA, and I think the guy is a terd too, but never think about the real cause of him coaching. No Becky Thorn. Again. Or, as usual?

CR is to blame for allowing the Jesters Dad Coach to Coach this team. His only interest was to have his daughter and her friends make it. Even with all the UA players Jesters are still considered a 2nd tier club.

Actually just the Long Island team for UA was a laughing stock. Connecticut and Baltimore were legit.

Great point! You don’t see coach/player/parent bashing on here regarding the Conn/MD teams and the UA process. Yes, some folks mentioned favoritism etc. for about a week, but not 4 months after the fact. LI is a hotbed, but not for lacrosse, instead for “wack job” posters like you! Unreal.

Same thing every year , but in the end the best players in college are loaded with players from LI , add in the rest of NYS and it’s obvious what state the best players are from.

Conn/MD did it the right way, the best most deserving players played, unlike what happened here on LI.

When will you get over your kid not getting picked? You’ll probably be talking about this at your daughters wedding.
Hopefully you finally got your refund.

You were better off not being picked. Driving to Virginia to watch the Jesters Coach who was in over his head coach and play his players was painful. While better players had to sit on the bench and watch as we lose to a Connecticut team we were better than.

to all the newbies...during years when TG coaches have a lot of say who gets on the same garbage happens. seen it with two older girls. dont even bother. my daughter outscored everyone during local tryouts and made the uncommitted team each year. was happy with her recruitment. but yes.. if youhave been around the block you know it was totally predetermined and BTW college coaches know it too.

[quote=Anonymous]I'm not the original poster nor a mom, nor is the girl mine - the Legacy girl is the best on Long Island in 2023. Offense or defense, she is the best. Sorry if it doesn't fit into your world view but that is my opinion, which is not illegal, yet.

So you are not the Legacy mom just a lax mom who stalks players got it. There are a lot of great midfielders in this age group let’s leave it at that. Don’t worry legacy mom your daughter doesn’t have to be touted as the best midfielder to get recruited.

Best player on Leg 23 perhaps but not in top 8 midfielders on the Island. Athletic- but relies on natural ability not developed skill. NEVER goes lefty. Will shoot backwards, underhand, or go away from any open lane that relies on left hand. Might have some skills in drills but never used in a real game. Defense-forget it. Lost all the time. Can play one on one until a shift, then lost again. And why is Mom proclaiming this nonsense on YJ thread?

Legacy mom we all have rose colored glasses when it comes to our kids.

neutral party here
your shot legacy girl is legit!
every aspect of her game is way above average

Above average with a good shot is a far cry from the best on the Island.

Also neutral party here.
Your post is way off base! Leg girl has developed as best in 2023 class. Wake up yJ parent she is better than anyone on your team. Fact!

Wow! So many ruffled moms and dads, makes me think she probably is top of her class with all these grown Meanyadults trying to put down a 15 year old girl.
