Stop trying to put people down on an anonymous forum big guy.

The goalie last year who mistakenly made the callback game was not the Prostart goalie. It was a kid who was very clearly outmatched in every prelim game.

Ok, but was the prostart goalies number called yesterday? I heard there were only 3 teams of players at the tryouts because so many of the top players opted not to try out this year. So if he is top 5 in the country, and there were only a handful of goalies at the event, he must of made it right?
There were 6-7 goalies per team. At least 2 of the goalies were high level D1 commits. The rest of the field was watered down by events like Committed Combine for the rising seniors and The Main Stage for rising juniors which were both still going yesterday. It was a terrible date to hold tryouts for the Highlight division if the goal was to get the best players to show up. It was a great day to show up if you were trying to make the team at any position other than goalie. The Nike event this weekend will have more talent than UA at all age groups, but if you aren't a private school kid, it was next to impossible to make those teams.
