Re: Boys 2028 Grads - Mid Atlantic Region Anonymous #431035 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A Crabs were very clearly best team on the field in both of their games. Dominated Dukes start to finish in first game. Clippers and Dukes evenly matched and Clippers led most of the game, were up 6-4 late in second half before giving up 3 goals in final few minutes. Clippers-Crabs was 4-2 at halftime and into the second half before Crabs pulled away as Clippers seemed to run out of gas then started pulling starters at 7-2 -- Crabs size and depth was too much for them.

This is elite level lacrosse and just one year away from HS, so if your son doesn't thrive on competing against holdbacks (or being one himself) then you are in the wrong division. So let's let's predict Hoco which I expect will be an awesome final season for the boys. 1. Crabs 2. Hawks 3. FCA 4/5. DCE/Next Level 6/7. 91/Madax 8. do they have anyone willing/able to take the last spot? Tell me if I am right or wrong! Like Reply Quote

Re: Boys 2028 Grads - Mid Atlantic Region Anonymous #431057 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A Crabs for sure will take HOCO. 3/4 of the team most likely drove themselves to Chase Yesteday. Disagree tho, with a team full of holdbacks playing teams with all on age players is not a fair match. Yes, HS will be the place to determine who can hang. Is what it is, glad the 2029 and younger will have a fair shake at on age matchups prior to the HS years. If you’re patting yourself on the back for defeating players 1-2 years younger, you’re learning some very sad life lessons. Like Reply Quote

Hawks will struggle against most out of state top teams, Crabs wont. Buckle up people, the holdbacks are coming for your position and team in elite lacrosse. It wont be 100% as many say, The best teams will usually have about 50% holdbacks/reclass or prefirst for you quarter zips, the rest are usually on older side and on age with an occasionally on age May/June/July birthday.

Crabs parents are the best - quiet until they finally win, then they never shut up. See you in the spring, tell your boys to drive safely. Like Reply Quote

It’s hilarious that Crabs parents are pounding their chest for wins against Clippers and Dukes. Thanks to the Crabs own promo video from this past weekend, you can see that they played terrible competition and looked mediocre against those two teams. Next time, make a video against a top-10 team. Like Reply Quote

Probably into AA. Which is still solid ball with some solid players. There are a lot of good multisport athletes in AA ball. But less polished talent and overall team depth compared to AAA and elite teams. Like Reply Quote

DCE Orange and Hawks Black will play AAA, Predators down to A looking at their fall scores. For HOCO, the focus is on where you finished last HOCO season, not how you did in the Fall. Predators won AA, so likely going to AAA on that basis alone. Bethesda Bandits now DCE Orange played in A, so I doubt they jump up two divisions. Sounds like a play in game is likely for AAA.
