more than half are not

yeah. how did they do in florida u15 nats last july. i dont beleive they were in the top 3. I was at the medal ceremony and didnt see them. all those all americans, what a shame.

there is no I in team. as we saw in florida. me + me + me + me = LOSS.

Yes and these individual players who are great kids make up the team.
Florida was one of those things. Every team loses. It makes you stronger. Not bitter or stupid. Stronger.
Take a page from them and chill dude.

is this the same group that last year bragged about how this team was unbeatable, and had won every game ever played. Now your saying "Every team loses. It makes you stronger" as your unbeatable team goes to a Middle SchoolTournament with no 6 or less D1 in attendance, and 40% of your players still uncommitted? sounds like more excuses and looks like a a team needing a easy win for confidence

Does anyone know why 2017 Bert team is not going to National Draw? The Northeast Regional tournament looks to be smaller with a weaker field.

LOL! Some people are just soooo bitter! Are you really criticizing this group of SOPHOMORES because maybe 10 aren't committed yet? What year were you in when you committed to Nassau Community College(if you even went to college)? The funny thing is probably half of that ten are waiting on board scores and will go ivy league. No worries here jackass, everyone of these girls will be more than fine at the next level and are all enjoying unbelievable success on and off the field. They don't need excuses! As far as the 2015 YJ team, if you are so worried about them playing a tougher schedule, why don't you contact their coach and set up a game with your daughters (who I am sure is an 8th grader with a full ride to North Carolina) team. Let's see how they do. I am sure they would appreciate the competition. I know you won't though, It is so much easier to sit behind your computer an pick on kids. What a loser!

Because if they come in top four they qualify for U15 down in Florida

and do you think you look less juvenile, calling him/her several names, and insulting anyone who went to Nassau Community College or never went to college at all? Does a lack of a college education, or going to a community college, increase one's chances of being a "jackass" or a "loser"? I agree, the email (s)he sent was bizarre (an understatement), but your arrogant and defensive response wasn't much better.

There were many condescending posts how that 2015 team was the best ever, and how they never lost a game, and will be undefeated until the cows come home. It does not surprise me to now read snarky comments about how they have been beaten a bunch of times and do not dominate like they once did. Regardless of their recent losses or potential future losses, that team dominated the lacrosse world in its age group, dominated the conversation for the entire lacrosse community, and have continued the YJ tradition of producing winners. Plus, I am sure every kid on the team is being recruited to play at great schools.

That is why if someone wants to giggle when he insults the team or the kids, I know he won't get the last laugh. It will be the kid who laughs last, and the loudest.

Unless you're wrapping it into a family vacation (Florida in July...great) I don't get the appeal of this tournament.

Is the U15 for girls that are currently 2017? Also-does each club hand chose the girls representing them or is it strictly the top club in their age group? Can any organization play? Thanks

Losing respect for YJ organization by the second..Take a look at YJ 16 Defo, for instance. They were bracketed with M&D Black, Top Guns, and Suffolk County for the upcoming National Draw. After second review, YJ is now in a weak bracket while the other three teams stay in the original bracket, having to knock each other off to make playoffs. It's blatantly obvious that someone made a call in order to duck the competition..#Sad

Oh I guess they didn't duck you today TG You lost to YJ 16 team and that game was not even scheduled!! BS and SS blowing a cork on sidelines comical. No ducking by YJ organization

no, U15 are 2016 girls.

Where did these two teams play? What was the final score?

Give credit to who ever got this game put together, it took long enough. Before it gets out of hand lets control ourselves, the game was close. TG goalie was amazing. The YJ showed great poise when down, and came back to get the lead and run out the clock. I look forward to playing again win or lose.

Cannot agree more and maybe now all the conspiracy issues about which team is ducking the other can be put to rest ,at least in this age group.Both teams should be proud of their performance and I agree TG was a game changer in this one ,had at least 8 saves some on point blank shots.

Who is ducking competition? Topguns black is playing 2nd and 3rd teams in their brackets. Looks like all the top teams have pretty easy brackets so don't try to make this a yellow jacket ducking conspiracy. #verysad

I see the YJ girls/parents continue to act like thugs.
