If it’s wrong don’t be a coward and notify you coach immediately Love the posters who use the term “fact”. It’s not a fact, it’s an opinion. There is no basis to call it a fact without a verified incident. So it’s actually never happened. And now it’s “cowardly” to not correct a missed assist. You have no idea what a coward is, unless you look in the mirror. Now that’s a fact!! Like Reply Quote

It is definitely true that other parts of the country have cut into the number of commits from Long Island. It would be interesting to see how many total kids from Long Island compared to nationally committed for 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021. If we had those numbers it would give us a better understanding if there are less recruits from Long Island or it just seems like less because the recruiting process has slowed down since early commitItting ended.

Re: Boys High School Lax Anonymous #344061 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A Every day college teams are posting one or two kids deciding to play another year. It’s common sense that it is effecting the younger possible recruits. It’s changed the landscape. Kids who would be possibly going big DI or Ivy are now going NESCACS and it’s trickling down. The colleges are benefiting and HS kids are getting screwed. Lacrosse has always been the Wild Wild West. Why would that change now? Like Reply Quote

Don’t know the data, but with 5 grades now prevalent on the college level, there is likely less spots. A 5th year 23 year old is much more of value it seems than an 18 year old unproven. These coaches are under pressure to run a successful program and I would focus on grad transfers. I think the NCAA should have granted the extra year this year to those seniors, but ended it there.

Some schools will be impacted more than others but it’s simple math and rosters will be crowded for a few more years and due to that the transfer portal will be crowded and because of that coaches will comitt less kids and shop for other spots Like Reply Quote
