Hard to take this seriously without UNC being in your top 4. BC has earned it the last 5 years and MD certainly is still the all-time program. Cuse has never won a natty and Northwestern last appeared in the finals/won one in 2012 (over ten years ago now). UNC clearly ahead of them, although they are probably 4th and 5th.

Correct, UNC is clearly in the top tier. UNC and MD recruit the portal the most of the big 5.

New college rankings just released. Lots of movement in top 10

https://www.usnews.com/best-colleges/rankings/national-universities

noticed Coastal Carolina wasn't on that list. uh-oh

Coastal appears to be a regional school, not a National. Who knew? lol

And? So is Loyola Maryland, among other schools that provide a sound education.

"Regional Universities offer a full range of undergraduate programs and some master's programs but few doctoral programs."

Coastal was ranked in Regional Southern Universities, so it's technically not off any list.

Northwestern (and other high academics like Duke, Stanford) can only take grad students from the portal. And grad school eligibility will effectively be done after next year.

I was joking about Coastal not being on the list. My daughter wants to go there and I told her it’s like a Community college.

Anyone know if the Inside Lacrosse Women ID Experience on October 23rd is a legit event? Is it worth doing for 2024s?

expect two local Princeton commits in next couple days.

oh it's very legit. IL pours alot of resources into it and uses their connections to have lax royalty there, both players, coaches and scouts. Bad news is, its invite only. They only invite players they think are top tier. If a player is there, they are basically guaranteed a scholarship if not already offered.

Good event. Lots of hogs trying to get their name mentioned. It’s done for rankings. Like everything else’s, $$$

I assume this is sarcasm. My 2023 daughter attended IDX last year. There were no coaches there. It's basically another chance to play with committed teammates. Most of the top girls were there.There were Syracuse players checking girls in and that was about it besides IL reps. I think IL uses it to rate girls so may be helpful for 2025s? Last year only 2023s attended and most were committed by that time.

Don't knock Coastal, great college experience and warm weather. It is a very trendy school for the kids these days...

Oh, ok! I've seen the campus--it's beautiful. Being close to Myrtle Beach isn't so bad, either. Jacksonville is in a similar situation, but their campus isn't nearly as pretty.

I did see they picked up the coaches from Furman after the last coach was let go due to player complaints. One of my old places of employment had about 6-7 Coastal grads--all fairly well adjusted.

Good luck to your daughter!

Wow, great dad/mom moment.

Some interesting goalie commits over the past 4-5 days.

UNC picks up a goalie from YJ and a midfielder from NY.

Michigan picks up a goalie from Team One, a midfielder that is the daughter of the UM Women's Basketball Head Coach.

Clemson picks up the UA South goalie from Lax Maniax.

Still no commit from the DewLax goalie/Team USA U16 goalie.

Denver is probably about full with their picks, same with Syracuse. Only 1 Duke commit so far.

Will be shocked if she doesn't end up at Notre Dame.

91 , empire, YJ o Sullivan no commits yet! Anyone on the pipeline?

That YOU know of. Not all commits have posted yet, even though it is a done deal for them. I believe there has is more commits at Duke? 3 I know of

Correction: The goalie that Michigan picked up is from Lakeshore Lacrosse not Team One.

IL #1 off the board to UNC!

The Goalie that committed to Michigan was just at ND and ND was her dream school. She chose Michigan immediately after. If you are correct, DL goalie should commit shortly to ND.

Interesting.

It was thank you.

91 will have some commits just give it time

Long Island pretty light so far in general.

YJ focusing on Weiner & Ramos and forgetting about everyone else

Levy going supersaiyan in Recruiting last couple cycles..and there's a good chance she lands #2 and another top 10 player

Is that a serious post? Is someone actually upset that a play on a C team hasn't gotten interest in the first 2 weeks of recruiting.

Ramos won’t have any to top 25. Only care about A team

Stop! It’s really only the beginning for 90% of the 2024 girls on 9/1. Now, start reaching out to coaches , because you can now. Be pro active, get to their prospect camps to schools of interest and keep the communications going. Emails, phone calls now, etc. so many spots still up for grabs for the 24s. Most spots are still available, even the top schools are going slower and still have many open spots left. The Fall tournaments, showcases, and prospect camps right around the corner. It’s just started to roll, stay positive and focused. Get communicating more. They have to know your daughter is very interested in them.

I Sullivan goalie committed

91 parent talk to us when you send a kid to a top 30 d1 school other than SB

So an offer from the number 5 ranked team in the country doesn’t count ????

Yea, "trendy" is what it is.

For who? Did she take it? Or is she holding out for the #50?

If stony Brook is calling kids on your team say thanks to BS for the fam connection. Your program hasn’t sent a kid to a top 50 d1 program other than SB in many many years. The best player on your team left an “A” team coached by her HS coach and went to a YJ B team what does that telll you?

Empire lost most of their returners and replaced with kids from other b/c/d teams. One or two kids on that roster are solid and could play d1. They won’t be top tier so it’ll be a minute while they move down their list as their top girls commit elsewhere
