Smoke and mirrors as well. Impressive turnout but........
They had a majority of the 2025 sidewinders there They had a majority of the 2026 diamondbacks there They had kids from their Baltimore team there to fill space And, they had a ton of people there for a free lacrosse head
Tryouts were mixed age groups the entire time, as a parent you could not really get a grasp for who might be on your sons future team.
After selections I can tell you what the 2026 team might be from top to bottom: -An attackman who is phenomenal attacking the cage...but will not keep his head up or pass the ball. It will be a turnover if he can't get a shot off, not a pull out and reset. -A few strong midfielders from various HoCo AAA teams -An 0-7 Diamondbacks defense -A great goalie who has been with a different club every year.
Despite True being a non-parent coached team...with Diamondbacks as the core, and a couple other key members of the team...expect daddy ball and politics to be in full swing.
