Re: Boys High School Anonymous #408044 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A All 4 of those teams mentioned are excellent. Which team is "That good" or "Down", we will find out as the season progresses. Like Reply Quote

Not giving them the head start with the shot clock in high school is a disadvantage IMO There are reasons why you can be the #4 goalie at Gilman, never touch the field at varsity, and play D1, while the same kid would be the #1 goalie at Westminster goes D3. One of those reasons is readiness to play the college game. And if you're unlucky enough to go play in west coast tournaments, you'll see that the vast majority of programs out there never play with shot clocks. Like Reply Quote

Simply put, they are well funded by the Kelly family, and can offer massive scholarships and tuition reduction for athletes. St Marys cannot do that or compete with their financials.
