True Blue parents are awfully quiet today. Funny how they play two good games in a tournament and come on to tell everyone that will listen that they are a top 5 team, but then play another tourney and get decimated and it's crickets. A lesson in humility for you.
All anyone has said was that they were good enough to be in an AA bracket. Which they showed that this weekend with every game competitive but one. They have come a long way and continue to do so. Remember this was their first ever AA bracket. Next year they will continue to pass by teams. The coach has improved these kids tremendously and this summer has proven that.
They definitely had the loudest coach at the tourney! Geez, I don't know how he can do that for two days straight! All kidding aside, they absolutely should be playing AA tournaments. They are good enough to compete and they won't get any better playing in B tourneys (S2S). I like how people will criticize teams for losing after challenging themselves. You need to get off the island and play some different teams. Just because you've never heard of teams, doesn't mean they are not great competition. Teams from Michigan, Colorado (3D Colorado, one of the best in the state), LI, Jersey (Tri-State, always great games, probably Jersey's finest), PA (Rising Sons, very good team, and Brotherly Love, elite team would beat just about everyone) and Md all represented and with very few exceptions, they were all excellent teams that would fare very well against most top teams around. Maybe instead of going there, these teams should go to Bash at the Beach, Hershey, Liberty Bell Challenge, Rhode Island Classic, Lake George or Primetime Invitationals and beat everyone by 15. Would that be better? Then you'll complain that they sandbagged because your kids team wouldn't be able to win their T-shirt.
