91 dads always with hilarious things to say. Thanks for the laugh.

The Dalers, lmao. Not a town team. An all star team made of all travel kids from different teams.

Just text Express and the coach will play your sons team anytime. I can guarantee that. Fact.

Guarantee!? Are you the coach?

This is the truth. We know kids on the team “ Dalets” they recruited kids from everywhere and were still not that great. I believe team 26 actually tied them.

91 has now become the 2nd best town team behind ROAR.

91 sure plays like a town team. Very weak

I dont know I think 91 and Igloo would be a good game. I am sure they will play at some point. I think both 91 and igloo got better. Shore wants to believe they are better then they are but they just take everyones B players so really no improvement there. Moose got better because outlaws were good and so they are better but not to Express Igloo or 91 level. Team 26 is basically Igloo/former outlaws, and randoms not top but they are basically the same as Moose and others in that level because they are the same people with different uniform.

what other towns were on the daler team?

Flying in more holdbacks from Florida?

Just looked at the 2026 US Club Lax rankings and am trying to understand why LIE Chany has listed LI Express Wieczorek Black (2026) as the team that attended the NAL. Seems a little disingenuous that they are listing their B team vs. the actual team that played. Expect better from them as they try to preserve the ranking.

If that isn’t a mistake, it is complete BS and Coach C is weak for doing that.

Actually that's the C team. They don't control US club lacrosse. Many times their stats come from tourney machine

when they win they are express CoachC, when they lose they are the C team.

It was definitely the A team. It’s just incorrectly listed under the C team. I’m sure it will be corrected. If you look at that Black team they have a few scores from the B team also. From Columbus Day tournament. That’s scores from 2 different teams. The B & C team were there for that.

Heard a funny conversation about “ ranking “ 13 year old players ..I wanted to tell the 5 foot 3 dad who’s never played lacrosse or any other high school or college sport , that little tommy has peaked , apples don’t fall far from the tree , bad enough ranking 13 year old teams ..now kids 🤦‍♂️..let them enjoy the weekends and hanging with their buddies , stop living through your kid ..it’s sad ..let them play in their hometown , have some great memories..sitting on the bench at Chaminade and St Anthony’s not going to be any fun ..

You’re probably that 5 foot 3 date. Go away chump.

Express team is still currently the number 1 team in country. Top program, every once in a while they will fall but they have shown in this age that they are the strongest team. Sweetlax is close behind.

91 once again undefeated. showing great improvement. dont sleep on them. they are working their way up the rankings.

Express is probably 3rd maybe 4. Sweetlax is #1 we all know. Won NAL. Express lost in the semi to Tigers.

Seriously? You actually went there…B tournament..2 town teams and a subpar B team “ undefeated “ . Wow 🤦‍♂️

Don’t forget the Crabs 🦀.1 .Express / 2.Crabs / 3.Tigers / 4. Lax Black ..5. Hawks .
Some of these other “big time “ clubs hide in B tournaments..not in the conversation

🤮

Sorry crabby you are behind sweetlax 1, tigers , express then crabby who didn’t do anything

1. Express 2. Crabs 3. Sweetlax and 4. Dc Express. 91 should also be in the conversation.

DC Express lost to Stealth in Pinnacle Championship. They are not #4. They are like 10-12.

Get real. Sweetlax won NAL and beat Tigers in the final. Sweetlax is #1. Express not in the conversation for #1.

This is the official ranking: Sweetlax, Tigers, Crabs, Express, Towermen, 91 based off fall results.

BOTC official? US club updated 11/19

Top 10 should be...

1. Sweetlax Upstate
2. Crabs
3. Tigers
4. LI Express
5. Hawks
6. West Coast Stars Gold
7. Stealth FL
8. Igloo
9. Leading Edge
10. DC Express

91 is right in there now.

Doing well in a B tournament this past weekend and previously beating Moose, Express B, and Legacy don't put you in there right now.

6-10 are not close to top 10

You have play other teams first. It’s odd though it seems, and it could be me, some clubs use the fall to be very selective over the match ups and don’t play vs certain teams. And other clubs will play any team. Maybe the brackets break that way or something

I don’t believe 6-10 or maybe 8-10 are top 10 teams. You’re forgetting the competition in other parts of the country.
There are other teams (from CA, TX, CO, NC) who could beat (or have already beaten) some of them and could challenge or beat 1-5 (or 1-7) too.

Well hopefully these teams (from CA, TX, CO, NC) show up to play in the Elite Tournaments this Summer and prove it. Playing subpar teams in B tournaments doesn't get you ranked in the top 10.

All the ranking are completely off. They haven’t included half of the NE tournaments in these rankIng at least for the last two weeks .

Sweetlax has beaten everybody they've played in the last 2 years and has only lost to 2 clubs teams during that time. One loss to the Towermen and wait for it... 7 or 8 losses in a row to LIE. For now, the top 3 teams in the country are LIE, Sweetlax and the Tigers. There are a few teams that may win a game or 2 along the way, but these 3 teams remain the best and most consistent. For all the ranting on BOTC, you'd think most of you would know the 2026 teams that routinely play in all the major championships. Either way, young boys with a lot of lacrosse in front of them. Enjoy the ride!

Thanks same old EXPRESS Dad!
