They weren’t given Lollipop opponents past weekend. They played their way in fairly. Just be happy for the kids

Did they announce before the North Qualifier how many teams would qualify? I looked at their website but couldn’t find the answer before it started. Do you know how many teams total qualify for World Series?

Prior to the event starting, the North qualifier clearly stated that the 9th seed would qualify. They would need to win 3 games from the losers bracket to do so. Anyone in attendance saw that the competition was fierce and games were high level. Great lacrosse was played all weekend was played all weekend.

Stop it with the rage bashing ....they followed the format and won their way to the 9th sees fairly . Does a 9th seed make sense , no it doesn't but it is what it is and I'm sure they're very happy to be able to go . As discussed before on this thread , too many teams go from the north because nobody else plays lacrosse across the country . The participation rate is very low , embarrassingly low especially when you consider how coaches/directors on long island walk around and compare themselves to tom Brady lol. So while we don't agree with 9 teams going , rage did what they had to do to get in . No problem with that

I’m no 91 fan. But the bracket that was published before the tournament clearly showed a 9th invitation in the bracket. If you want to criticize 9 invitations that’s fair. The conspiracy theory that is was created after the tourney started for rage isn’t true.

This is nothing but a pathetic post. I actually feel bad for you!

No, it was not announced. In previous years it had been 6 from the north bracket. Last year they made it 7 after the bracket had concluded b/c a team in another bracket had to back out.

PA is a “pit stop”? Lol, I guess if we had feelings here in PA they’d be hurt but luckily we don’t. Sounds like these young men played well and beat 3 of the better clubs in MD. I’m not familiar with Team PA as a club but seems like these kids can play a little bit.

This is an accurate post. Bracket was clear and set up in advance of the event for all to see.
Competition was fierce and the best teams are from the northeast.
That doesn’t mean that a stacked team from one of the other regions can’t win.

Yeah - I wonder who they (Team PA) are???

Team PA is like last year’s Tigers. An all star team poached the best kid from different clubs. They’ll have big athletic kids

Question was not intended for any reason other than to ask if you know the total amount of teams that qualify for the World Series and how many for each Region? Congrats to Rage on making it, wasn’t asking for that reason. Do you only find out when they publish on tourney machine one region at a time?

Not a 91 parent. Much respect to Rage, they get the s$iT end of the stick all of the time and did what they had to do to qualify. As a parent from an organization that can’t stand 91 and all of their antics I’m happy for them. They will constantly have to work to keep their team together much like Warriors did.

Rage can probably beat or certainly be competitive with some of the other Long Island AA teams.

Have to think they take legacy, igloo and the rebels

Team PA is like last year’s Tigers. An all star team poached the best kid from different clubs. They’ll have big athletic kids
?? Isn't this what all of these teams are?

Enough talk about 91! How about Eclipse? Express? Massachusetts? Kings? I'm betting one of these teams takes it.

I doubt they’d beat Legacy. Legacy lost to the tournament winner Eclipse by 1 goal. Legacy did better against Eclipse than any other team in the tournament. Legacy would smoke Rage.

Why would any team that knows they can’t compete want to go? This isn’t March madness where a miracle upset can happen. Let’s spend a weekend in the summer to go play games with no chance of winning. Qualifier I get. Go see how you stack up, but question answered. Go hang out on the beach heading into 4th of July

Best thing about eclipse was they are not even ranked and they dont care. Just showed up and smoked everyone!

Says Eclipse. Welcome to crazy town Eclipse!! You had a great day and congrats on locking #1 seed from NE. But don’t be a fool.

😭😭😂😂😂

Enough already with the legacy talk ....you went 0-3 and got bounced out quickly . Shut up already

91 is going down.

Advance and the Texas Mustangs will be contenders as well.

91 is the biggest disappointment by far. Not legacy/Iglioo/Rebels. It’s the so called best team. Not that anymore and never again. Bye bye 91. Maybe that useless, bad 2029 coach JM can help with his holdbacks. Boo hoo 91 watch the door on the way out. You guys are the problem with youth lax. Thanks for the nightmares, see you, see you, would not want to be you.

Here’s a idea. Rage , legacy , Rebels and Igloo have a four way tourney. I would bet anything rage would be under over 1 win. My money on under. Of coarse they would try to bring Machine kids in. Let’s do it. Step up and say we are in. Then will set it. Let’s see who has it , and who does not. RAGE against the MACHiNE

That is the MO for that team as you read above in this thread. " we cant win a tournament of any significance but if ww lose by 1 we are good or we had a lead by 2 wirh 2 to go and if it wasn't for divine intervention we would have won.......obviously sarcasm but you get the idea. .
Average team at best.

Is this the Legacy parent that your kid plays for a new team every other year and 2nd time on Legacy ?

This may be the densest most immature post ever posted on BOTC.

It gets better .... apparently machine players have been sharing a slogan on social media for everyone to see . Some of the kids are friends with kids from other clubs/live in the same town as them . They keep seeing on social media " revenge tour 2022" lol....so apparently the 91 machine coaches called an " emergency meeting " after the world series loss . Instead of trying to understand what went wrong and how to fix it they instead came up with a slogan " revenge tour 2022" in their typical low iq rah rah fashion . Is that supposed to scare other teams ? Lol....news flash..machine has been using intimidation tactics for years , coaches bumping chests while screaming " yeah, yeah, whoa, whoa" and kids talking trash while the goalie mouths off and bangs the pipes with his stick . Guess what ....you're not scaring anyone . Go back to the drawing board and figure out how to play . Your slogans and rah rah sideline don't work anymore . " Revenge tour 2022" hahaha, can't make this stuff up .

Little Jimmy, it’s time to go back to playing Fort Nite. You can play one more game and than it’s time for bed. You are not allowed to go on BOTC any more. This is for adults only

Revenge Tour 2022? I’m sure they’re still seeking revenge for the beat down they received from the Kings. I’m ok with the goalie banging pipes, I did not see their goalie waving at any Express players if a saved was made.

Revenge Tour 2022 part Deux... This time it's serious

Team 91 revenge , rage ,venom,storm.....they seem very very angry . Very scary . I'm sure everyone is afraid now lol

"revenge 2022" team 91 blinged out shirts coming soon to a sideline near you lol

Did CoachC take over the Express team for this grade?

Just the WS team

I hope they march in formation in their blinged out shirts, carrying the American flag and blaring music. I hear that helps.

Have seen that kid wave at players after a save. Parenting for the win!!!!
