BOTC - US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums NORTHEAST LACROSSE BOTC MAIN FORUM (LI, CT, WC) Boys 2018 Fall 2013/Summer 2014

I am sorry there is no way those Boston uni's with 2018 on their butts are the right age for 2018. You might be in the grade but last I say McHale lived in Minnesota some of those boys could have been his offspring. Seriously call it what you want but wth people.

I am now all in favor of birth certificate and grade based. If you are not of the age [lacrosse]. Play up a grade with your same age. get to HS then all bets are off only if you are on a Varisty tem if still grde based same grade and Age applies.

Good on you North

Just on the wall at the tourney

Extreme wins it all. Beat Hawks in semi final game which should have been final. Then Smoked Jesters Black in finals. Jesters Black beat 91 Orange in regular play to advance and play Team Michigan who beat Express North in regular play to advance out of their division. Amazing thing is Wantagh and Team Michigan tied and Express North beat Wantagh pretty easily. Guess that's why you play the games.

Great tournament. Only issue is the teams from Boston and their kids being 2 years older. Boys do talk on the field coaches and they dont BS like the parents. Its a shame you need to bring kids that are 16 to play kids that are 13 and 14 kids years old.

team Michigan was older ask one kid and he said he was 15

Take if from an ex extreme players parent you do not get better playing for Sal in a limited role. You get better by playing the best and being the player who they want to get the ball too

Sal is very difficult to play for- be-littles the kids. Lose a game and he screams at the team in private. Has ruin a few of his players instead of building them up

For ruining players sure seems to be winning a lot.

Agree with most of what you said above, take exception that the Hawks should have been in Final. The teams in the finals won their way there. Jesters Black earned their way to that game. Won 5 games in a row to get there. Beat the team who everyone calls the number 3 team on LI in 2018 in 91 Orange rather convincingly 6-3. In a game that Orange played so dirty, they had double the amount of penalties than goals. Then they had to go play and beat that True Michigan Team with absurdly older, bigger kids. No excuses here on the final result, Extreme won handily. Point is, Jesters Black earned that trip to the finals, regardless of the outcome. Best of luck the rest of the summer.

So how did your predictions work out?

Look, yes Jesters won their division and playoffs. But if seeding was done in the correct way Hawks and Extreme should have been on opposite sides to meet in finals. We do know the way the tournament was setup that 91 Extreme and Orange were supposed to meet in finals. I dont know how Team Michigan beat Express North. Wantagh and team Michigan tied 3 to 3. While Express North handled Wantagh easily. An amazing day by all with a bunch of surprises. Jesters did impress and did handle 91 Orange to my surprise. Good luck to all.

Never thought Laxachusettes would lose to Express North. Then never thought Michigan team would beat Express North. Also didn't think 91 Orange would lose to Jesters after they spanked them at Shamrock (I believe) But I don't think I did that badly.

Laxachuaettes and Michigan teams were no way 14 years old. Express North was best 2018 team who didn't get to playoffs. Jesters lost in Shamrock to 91 orange 6 3. Same score they beat them by yesterday. Spanking would not be accurate description of either game. Lots of great 2018 and alleged 2018 teams in this tournament. Unfortunately none of them in same class as Extreme.

ergo... stop making predictions, since it's clearly not a skill of yours.

Extrem wins it all again Beat Annapolis 8-2 beat Jesters 9-0
Jesters were allowed only 2 shots on goal 91 extrene on another level

It was 8 0 but rest is accurate. Hit one pipe and goalie made maybe 2 or 3 more saves. Jesters were never on offence. Extreme controlled game. Best team at this age group.

[
Not 100% sure if Annapolis Hawks Green is their A team. Pretty sure an Annapolis Team beat Extreme earlier this year. As for 91 Orange its a cake walk till they run into Laxachusettes Black in Semi Finals where they will lose 8 to 4. Extreme will win in OT vs Hawks if this is their A team 7 to 6. Then Extreme wins it all vs Laxachusettes 8 to 5 [/quote]

Extreme gets smoked by Hawks or Laxachusettes, both of those teams are littered with reclassed kids. Extreme only has a hand full of holdbacks to compete. [/quote]

I agree with 91 having teams in opposite brackets. They should not have to play each other before championship if they are both lucky enough to make it that far. Lot of good team. Hawks were not in toughest bracket. Michigan, Laxachusettes and Express North were top teams that beat each other!Any one of them could have made to finals if brackets done differently.

Drop Outlaws Black below Tribe and your spot on. Tribe tied them and then beat them at Forsberg in finals. So would give the edge to Tribe.

Two of the three teams you mention were not made up of 13 and 14 year olds. That might have been the toughest bracket of the tournament. Cant forget HOS Black and Tribe were also in same bracket.

Extreme should have been playing up at Lax fest. If they want to be an extreme team they should play up they have enough reclassified players that they would be playing age appropriate

If reclass players on teams means you should play up, I saw about 12 teams that need to go then. Extreme was far from the biggest team there. Honestly, the two teams in finals may have been two smallest in 8th grade A!

Maybe every team should play up and then all the 2018's can play each other in the 2017 bracket....lol the tournament had an A and B division and they played in the A division where they should.

That was the same case last year, as they sent one player to the hospital and severely injured several players on the top 2 LI teams. I guess it makes sense that SL is looking to bring them into the 91 family, big, fast and overly aggressive.

The comment about Extreme getting smoke is a ridiculous statement, yes they won the laxfest but if people would read the board before making such bizarre statements, they would have realized the Exteme and already beaten Laxachussettes twice the week before. Some people are just writing cr@p to illicit a response and stir things up.

I'm not involved with Extreme but I will admit that they are solid team and always a great team to play against.

The extreme stinks. and lots of loud fat dads living through there kids. Ridiculous!

not extreme parent here but what I can see parents were very nice when they played our team. as for the Extreme team they will be very hard to beat... they have great face off player, middies are all fast and can shoot with both hands......... Attack is solid
and their defense has the one of the best players I have ever saw at this age bracket add 2 top Goalies in the age bracket and that will make them very hard to beat/

That's a true statement, and Extreme on a whole was a lot bigger. JB on average the smallest A team in 2018, got to finals on grit and hard play. Took it to that absurdly older Michigan team with pure heart and skill.

Well, lets be honest, many of the Kids "should" be 2017's and on the out of state teams it could be 2016's. The other team that was in the finals is 100% 2018 legit by age and grade.

Jesters & 91 orange 3 , 91 orange beat jesters in shamrock &
Halloween havoc & twice in obll , first time jesters beat 91 orange congrats jesters

Very evenly matched teams. The first one to 6 goals usually wins between these two.

Anyone playing in the Tri Star Lax Clash this coming weekend at Mitchell Field?

Where is the tristar lax clash schedule??

It's like the OBLL,.....you will get Friday night!

yes

terps playing but a bunch of boys will be at Jake reed...

Wolverines are playing too - any teams other than Express?

And the excuses are all ready starting -

Why would 3D have an event but send there 3D Select Canada team to this tournament? Why wouldn't they be at Jake Reed? Thought the 3D event was for graduating years 2016 and 2017. Am I wrong?

Many kids going to 205 , some jake reed , all $ making for the 2018
Level , next year the year to go . Oh well $ making event for 2018 level not the 2017 level . Play with who you have terps have 32 players on there team . No excuses

I don't believe that is an excuse, just stating facts. They will play with what they have, they always do and those players will work extra hard to win.
