He listed his top 25 and then a group 'also impressed." There are 5 Terps in top 25, 1 for Extreme. Overall, there are 3 Extreme (T91) listed and 5 Terps (LIE). What does beating the Dukes have to do with this list?

Anonymous Unregistered A	Originally Posted by Anonymous Did a lot of kids leave Carnage team ? I don't think the team ever got going in the right direction from the very beginning. Had a solid core but after the original coach was demoted to coach the B team about 6 players that were supposed to be on the A team which was Carnage followed their high school coach to Slashers the B team. After the shuffling of players it resulted in the Slashers being better than the A team. Then a number of players who made Carnage left after seeing the mess the team became. Some went to play on the B team and others went to other teams.

So has dukes beaten 91 Extreme recently that they have 9 kids on list and Extreme only has 3? Assume the guys from MD. Because based on results from Brine and recent tournament play he must not have seen what the Long Island boys have done to these other teams. Like both 2018 team Terps and Extreme in finals of Adrenaline Platinum Cup and Extreme beating the Annapolis Hawks in finals of fl$. Was pretty sure that team Long Island handled all comers easily at Brine. Its all hype.

Knowing the top teams can beat each other any weekend. Having A>B>C>A situations also makes for great lacrosse. With so much talent spread out across so many teams I hope the early recruiters take their time to evaluate all talent before offically opening the 2018 verbal commitment circus

I cannot imagine acting like that on the sidelines Didn't see that, but could have been at the games you were at. The refs were probably some of the worst I have seen. Didn't know rules and weren't running up and down field. Very inconstant in level of physical play they would allow.

I realize it was hot - but the refs were not running up and down the field, one guy kept calling flag down but hold the flag so he would not have to go back and get it, reffing was weak but it was weak both ways

Anonymous Unregistered A	Don't have a son on Extreme or Terps. However, I have to ask the question. Were FCA and or the NH Tomahawks this competitive last year? If not, how could they have become so good in just one years time? I believe both these teams were not even close to the level of Extreme or Terps last year. How did they become so good so fast? One last question, as I was not at the tournament. The starting line ups for these teams, both FCA and NH, were they all as big and more physically developed than the biggest kid on Extreme? If not ok, then maybe they just found better kids. I'm guessing I might be right though? If I am right... How come not one rising rising freshmen I know of looks like that? Just asking, because my son's team played a team from out of state this weekend who's starting 10 were ALL between 5'-10" and 6'2", 150-175lbs... It's becoming laughable.

FCA had some big kids, but the were very good. You have to stop with the size thing, next year a lot of, if not all these boys will be playing JV or varsity, then there will be 14 year olds playing against 18 year olds, you can't always play your age.

Anonymous Unregistered A	Nothing to do with talent. Extreme has more talent. FCA out coached Extreme. Very obvious to see. All Extreme did was attempt to score with individual effort and had no team offense. The FCA goalie was average but if all you try is score from the big shots, you make a good goalie look great.

The post below taken from post on NPYL thread: (FCA U15 Blue wins NXT Cup in Philly. Big 7 - 4 win over Team 91 in semi's. Blowout win in championship game.) U-15??? Seems like another MD team playing down and then bragging about winning. Sad.

I've seen that FCA team play before. Plenty of talent at all positions. Stop trying to rationalize your loss.

I have always thought it was an unfair advantage to be that small, these larger defensemen can not get low enough to push them out and the little guys are just so quick that they can not cover them. I wonder if the terps cheat and play younger plays for the obvious advantage a small quick attacker has over a bigger older slower D.

They score a lot because of ball movement, not individual dodges. Yeah, those big attackmen like Garret Thul, Mark Matthews and Randy Stats are useless.... Come on man. Not saying small guys aren't great too, but you're reaching.

Hysterical post. I keep trying to convince ACC coaches they need short defensemen to cover the smaller attackmen like Sankey, Bitter, Dionne and Mattheis. Hears hoping that Starsia and Danowski are reading.

Anonymous Unregistered A	Originally Posted by Anonymous Any list that has Jesters in a top 10 has no credibility Easy fella, poster called Jesters team "next tier". No one ever said they were on the level of Extreme or Terps. Still asserting your son's travel team superiority??? That's funny. You should know, Jesters did beat everyone else on LI though this summer, but who cares? All that's in the past, all about the next step now. That's why you should consider playing on a team where your son sees the field, and or isn't one of 34 players. Much easier to be seen by coaches when your son is actually playing in front of them. I assure you, no college coach is going to care who wins or loses moving forward. Come to Jester tryouts, solid kids, great coaches, no psycho parents who think their kid is the next Duke recruit, a breath of fresh air. Have a friend who's son is on a 2016 team (not jesters)that went 1-4 this past weekend, kids has 6 offers on the table from very nice D1 schools. Its about talent my friend, not game scores...
