Anthony Alexander is a great human being. He’s an outstanding coach that gives all his heart and soul to his players. You couldn’t ask for a better coach/leader teaching your son.

Top 5 aa predictions for Long Island fall ball?

1. Turtles
2. Recon
3. True Black
4. True Green
5. True Rainbow

I'm only interested in the AAAAAA brackets.

1. Winter Soldiers
2. Rebels Stealth
3. Express Chucks
4. Express East
5. 91 Titans

Sounds like Tony wrote is own review - LOL

Swap 3 for 1 and 5 for 2. Not sure there isnt a bigger list.

91 takes a huge step up this year. Will win more than Igloo and Rebels.

Hard to see how the Soldiers lose any game this season. They are stacked.

Good competition on LI is better for all our boys and their teams! Chucks & Titans are always saying they’ll be better and stronger than Winter Soldiers and Rebels Stealth. Let’s see what happens on the field.

LOL "stacked"

These kids are 11. Many of the "top" players won't be 4 or 5 years from now. You have no idea how this works.

Why are igloo stacked? Cuz they have one kid from shore 2 shore that should really be a 30 ?

91 added no one special. Loaded with dad coaches whose kids have no business being on team. Looks like they are hiding in the fall like they always do with @ChillLaxin my lacrosse tournaments.

List is tough to figure out. Igloo hasn’t beaten rebels in year and half. Express has beaten rebels last 2 times. 91 has never lost to express. Rebels have owned 91 with exception of one loss last spring. Heard one of the top middies from rebels just went over to express. Should be interesting fall.

The better 31s are playing 30. Long road ahead for the stacked soldier squad. Igloo dismantles next year or two. Rebel team same story.

There’s no better 31s playing on 30s. Just 30s playing as 31s.

Don’t recall the Rebels ever having a AA level team by HS. They had some solid A and B teams. Not a team that could win an NLF tournament.

Rebel teams end about now, 6-7th grade they disappear, best players leave. And the landscape at 31 will change drastically when kids playing 30 reclass in 2 years. It will be a rude awakening for most in this group.

Someone finally gets it !

Is there still a Shore team this year? Looks like a mass exodus and second team is gone at this age and next.

In my opinion, it is more so what the NLF and Alliance clubs can offer exposure and competition wise in high school. Every situation is different, but just look at the recent commits and the clubs they associated with.

I have one kid who plays on an NLF team and one who doesn’t. I will be honest and say being a member of the NLF doesn’t really give you any extra exposure. They only run one good tournament which is the championship in July. I honestly saw more coaches and better exposure at the NAL than the NLF.

Columbus Day Tournament! Why aren’t the Titans playing? Only saw Warriors.

Because they are hiding in the fall like they always do. Losing is bad for business.

The head coach never put his other team in that tournament either.

Last year, no one saw the Titans until the spring. 😳

Too bad these LI teams don’t come down to MD and play the top teams

@ChillLaxin for the chucks playing 2 A teams with the warriors and moose lax. No competition

who would that be???

Been like that for years, All Talk, no action .

Most of the good teams are coming down to the NAL in November, except 91(shocker) Not sure why you would go down more than that in the fall. A lot of kids play football. And you guys are more than welcome to come up any time you like

I love these MD dads coming to this board trying to taunt LI dads.

These boys are 11. Calm down.

That’s because newyork isn’t like Maryland we don’t start our kids in kindergarten at ten years old!
