Whether you son is a holdback or not they are developing; check the D1 track record of Baltimore Crabs overall. I can tell you my son is improving with each practice; expectations are high and kids are the boys held accountable.

Nailed it.

Very accurate post. Just don't join before 8th grade. That way you know what they are holding back/flying in. Otherwise, you may end up on hardshells.

whats going on with madlax? they seem to be losing games and players at a pretty fast clip.

My guess is tryouts this year will be packed with kids trying to find a competitive club for the HS years.

DCE is the new club in town

Madlax - coaching, players especially at midfield and hero ball.

DCE is the real deal….

Who have they lost and where did they go?

Give it a rest. No one replied to you the first time and they still don't care.

Sounds like you do.

REAL. DEAL.

Yeah, you are kind of like the Predators clown.

BL has grades K-12, so their could be BL 2026 kids on the team.

He'll be on to a new team next year

Thursday Predictions for Saturday Elite Schedule

Can the newly revamped Team 91 with their new swag and Big Midfield take down the once dominate Crabs 25/26 Team? I think they can -
Team 91 8 Crabs 4

The new addition DCE (BLC/VLC/NL) team continue their rise to the top of the division against a depleted FCA Team that really should be playing AAA?
DCE 16 FCA 3

Can VLC carry their momentum of a near upset win last week over the Hawks against a Madlax Team that is a shell of what it once was?
Madlax 9 VLC 7

Is the Hawks Defense a contender or a pretender? Early Spring says the former but last week says the later; which will it be this week?
True 12 Hawks 11

No posting and drinking at the same time.

Lots of nice jabs at various teams but you got three of the four picks wrong. You would not do very well in Vegas.

I love True in this game.

Crabs and DCE roll.

VLC by 2

Crabs -6
DCE -10
VLC/ML Pick
Hawks -5

True has a legitimate shot at winning against Hawks. Hawks defense is a liability. True has size and speed to dominate. Hawks win but it will be close.

DCE should have easy win.

Not so clear cut with Crabs and 91. 91 has some scoring firepower. I say 91 wins.

VLC should win a close one against ML.

91 also doesn't have the holdback excuse vs. Crabs. Half that team should be in high school this year.

They can still use it since only half are holdbacks.

Hawks by 10

VLC by 4

DCE by 5

Crabs by 1

Likely pretty close, but Crabs by more like 4

Crabs by 10......... all depends on if the out of towners fly in or not

Absolutely no chance the Hawks win by 10. When was the last time they won a game by 10?

No idea, but they beat True by 11 and 14 last year it looks like.

Almost did against LI Express!

They will be lucky to win by 4. Defense is awful. MVP of this team is Fogo.

If you've seen both teams, True can't score enough to keep up with the Hawks

If you saw the hawks defense last week, FCA or Looney’s could hang double digits on them

So King Crab posted pics of his starting Freshmen goalie at BL. If you’re the 26 goalies at Crabs you aren’t playing till senior year unless he gets hurt.

Always remember you’re just a small fish in a big pond

It’s not uncommon for goalies to wait until their junior or senior years to start. BL’s 2026 goalie has been on the crabs all along and has a blue blood Baltimore lax surname - it wouldn’t surprise me if he got some tick before his senior year.

And the answer is

2021-03-21 Hawks vs VLC 18 - 8
2021-04-10 Hawks vs True Annapolis Green 17 - 4
2021-04-11 Hawks vs FCA MD 15 - 5
2021-05-15 Hawks vs True Annapolis Green 11 - 1
2021-03-27 Hawks vs Tri-State Lacrosse 17 - 2
2021-03-27 Hawks vs True PA Green 14 - 1
2021-06-28 Hawks vs 302 11 - 0
2021-06-28 Hawks vs Team Eighteen 12 - 2
2021-06-28 Hawks vs Alcatraz Outlaws 11 - 0
2021-07-02 Hawks vs Team Israel 16 - 0
2021-07-02 Hawks vs Team 91 LI Orange Storm 12 - 3

The life of a goalie.

Shocking kids have to work hard to get playing time!!! Who would have thought??? SMH

Hawks stole the stud goalie from Crabs. Will not be going to BL

There are several schools that the 26 class won't play much till Senior year. Lots of schools are over recruiting and the 25 class is deep with talent.

Who said they were going to BL? One is headed to McDonogh so I don’t think he cares.

Some elite level talent there 😂
