BOTC - US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums NORTHEAST LACROSSE BOTC MAIN FORUM (LI, CT, WC) Girls 2023-10th Grade Fall 2020/Summer 2021

If you’re not careful, going to a camp can get your daughter crossed off. Camp play is extremely selfish and getting on the wrong team can hurt you. Many of the camps this summer were held in 95+ degree weather for over 8 hours. It’s downright dangerous

Cared? Are you kidding? Top gun parents live for this stuff. Lots of therapists receiving calls from TG parents for mental help. It want that long ago when these people came here to tell us they were the best in the nation! Next time keep quiet and stop selling your soul to the devil for your daughter to get a chance to shoot.

It was called au upset for a reason...would never happen again. Enjoy your 15 minutes, seems it's the most exciting thing that's ever happened for you. In case you were wondering, Top Guns is currently ranked #1, you are #9

Please forward the stats that you are quoting that “lots of therapists are receiving call from TG parents for mental help”. Please forward the link so we can fact check your statement. Or are you talking out your buttocks.

only as good as last game.
they honestly don’t care about who beat who. YJ hasn’t lost to M&D in 5 games in past year yet M&D that high. come on. YJ just won’t MA and Jesters made it to finals. neither moved up. silly rankings

The rankings never make sense. TG ranked ahead if the teams that beat TG? TG must have a political contact doing the rankings. No other explanation. That is the problem with this sport, no regulation by ethical independent association.

It’s because M&D blew out Grizzlies. TG only lost an overtime to Jesters, was a fluke. YJ had a couple bad losses and close games which is why they aren’t higher. If you read the way US Club lacrosse does the rankings, you will see that it’s not political. They use an algorithm which takes into account scores and strength of schedule.

Yes, similar to how it’s done in college if a top team is upset by a lower team, the lower team moves up but not ahead of the team they beat. Consistency and strength of schedule play a big role.

They still lost to the jokers!
Lol
N those college coaches watched ur team n coach fall apart in a playoff game!
Haha
Jokers get the last laugh of the season.

I wonder if you will be lol, after the TG girls all commit to great schools while you watch and wonder why your daughter is getting no calls. The coaches watched one girl on your team do well, former TG player and the only reason you’re winning anything. Great kid deserves what she will get, but not exactly making the rest of the girls on the the team look good. There are plenty of TG girls who will have their choice of schools. But keep clinging to that win that the coaches could care less about.

The former TG girl is the face of the franchise WB coach did a good job bringing her over. She is a true stud the rest of the Jesters watched her play a great game.

UA no fee and 3 practices. American Select all that money and 1 practice.

True. Guess we'll see how the events pan out. Honestly, there was no real reason to do either for recruiting purposes. Coaches already have their top girls picked. One thing that is messed up is that certain YJ girls who are connected, Spallina, etc... got to wait to see if they made UA before they paid. That is very wrong.

Look at the 22 Top Guns Black commits. 23 commits will be similar possibly better.

Should not get special treatment and get to roster on two teams.

Good luck The very top 23's will get picked right away. But if your a non-starter on a great team, you'll be waiting with the rest of them.

..and you’ll still lose to Baltimore

And Baltimore will lose to CT

YJ plays all girls on A. that is why they get recuited. TG only top gurls play. the rest are cherrleaders.

100% false YJ A played only their starters in playoff games.

Fools, all of you. Carrying on with all of your nonsense. September 1st is right around the corner and the college coaches will make it known who the Top Recruits are... The coaches do not care about any of the nonsense that you lunatics argue about, a lot of parents will have their eyes opened very soon.

Here is a question for all off the chest pounders out there: How many of you believe that your daughter will be receiving offers from the Top Programs? How many of you believe that the coaches from Boston College, North Carolina, Maryland, Northwestern, Syracuse, Princeton, Virginia, Penn, Florida, Duke, Notre Dame, Penn State, USC, Stanford, JMU will be calling and making an offer? Yes, I am well aware of the fact that there are many other schools out there but I get the sense that way too many of you believe that your daughter is a legit Top Tier Player and the reality is that most just are not. None of our opinions matter, we will all find out where everyone stands very soon.

The girls who will be getting the big offers already know.

Like the girls who have sisters in the same program? How do the coaches convey this? Just wondering how to compare notes...

All of those coaches are too busy in the spin cycle that is now the portal. Say- when does the portal period end?

If the team loses, the best girls leave and the coach stinks. If the team wins, the worst girls parents complain and the coach plays favorites. Must be a real challenge for every program, director and coach to thread that needle where every team wins, every girl plays equal time, no coach has a daughter on the team and every parent has a realistic view of their daughters talents. Frankly, we were all better off when there was only a high school team and our parents could care less about where or how much we played and there only concern was being home for dinner after being out all day with our friends.

PLEASE BE KIND
When a coach views your profile on Sports Recruits but doesn't view the video what does that mean?
Are they just checking GPAs etc?
I would think the first thing they would look at was video?

Legacy over jesters today 8-4!

They talk to the club coaches and directors and tell them. They can communicate with the girl throughout the director or other people who know the coach. Just not directly with the girl.

Great question. Thx for asking.

Nice win for an underrated Legacy team. Move them up in the club rankings.

Just my opinion... The coach most likely watched your daughter play in person and then went and looked at the profile.

This is spot on , although the coaches are not permitted to speak to a student athlete,they can most definitely speak with your club director , who would then let you know who is interested. I have 2 daughters who have gone through the process and one now is an assistant coach at a top 20 program.

but I heard Jesters missing half there team and starting goalie. Heard Winkoff calling girls on field w same number. Probably pulled girls up from B because there is no comparison between Jesters and Legacy !

Legacy smoked the Jesters. The better team won.

Yeah you go on thinking that. It makes you feel better. Jesters will not just beat Legacy. They will blow them out. They were missing half there team and had girls pulled up. That’s why there were girls w the same number legacy Dad. Or is this Top Gun dad that’s still sore about Mid Atlantic loss

Very true. My daughter is a commit and her school did exactly this recently.

Jesters were missing half their team. Legacy is not very good!

upset according to who?

What makes the Jesters dangerous is that it isn't just one player. They play as a team more then any 23 team out there........Your making the same mistake everyone else is making and that's why you lost to them. They get better and better. Jesters have beaten every single 23 team at one point or another!

Isn’t that the second time legacy beat jesters? Were they missing half their team that day also? Jesters is a one man show, stop the girl they got from top guns and the team crumbles!
