You should start a FB page just for girls lacrosse! Sounds like a great idea for a platform

Take some initiative and contact IAAM,

Unfortunately for the girls that play, JV is an afterthought for most high schools. Not many schools spend any time or money on the JV team.

You sound like a pleasant person. A law suit for girls JV lacrosse playoffs. Think about that for a second.

Garrison lost to Glenelg by 1?

Yes. Anything else?

Georgetown Visitation beat McD by one…….

Which is more surprising, that or MCD losing to Georgetown visitation.

McD lost to Visitation by 1?

🦗🦗🦗

What? It’s not that big of a surprise….

To goalie dad it is.

Give it a rest and find a new obsession

[Censored] and even re-class. They will be key players at Bryn Mawr and other schools next year.

The Daughter is crushing it so far at MP.

That is so RUDE. Having had three daughters and one son go through the IAAM and MIAA, the boys are definitely treated differently. I get they command more money for the school, but I agree - the girls do deserve to have a play-off. If it truly is because of not taking stats, then that is understandable and should be fixed. However, this is high school and not every girl is going to make it to D1 lax or may not make it to Varsity in their school. And for all those that want to make a comment about me being a JV mom, my 2 girls in college have made it to D1 and started freshman year. I just see the JV girls working just as hard and loving the game. Everyone needs to respect the girls no matter what level they play at— they are out there working each day also. I absolutely don’t agree with a trophy for all—hence a play-off, etc. They at least get to compete until the end.

Does anyone even know what JV teams are good? This year a couple of schools don’t even have JV teams. It is all about preparing them for Varsity.

The IAAM and MIAA are separate organizations with different members, albeit many coed schools are in each. They have separate policies. I'm sure if enough ADs in the IAAM fought for it, it would be there. I just don't think it is a priority.

Like many posters said, the MIAA policy is the exception, not the norm. MPSSAA doesn't have JV playoffs and don't think any counties do either. Once the JV season is over, the few team members that can be moved up, are moved up for varsity playoffs. The point of JV is to prepare the kids to make varsity, that season in the varsity playoffs or the next.

Outside of a few exceptions, there are a lot of competitive games on the books tomorrow.
Mcd vs Spalding
Spsg vs Maryvale
Severn vs Mount de sales
St Mary’s vs a Roland park
Garrison vs John carrol

Nothing against the other 2 games(Gcs vs mercy and NDP vs Gerstell) but the above seem to line up to be competitive. Looking forward to hear the outcomes

Predictions
Spalding over McD 12-9
SPSG over Maryvale 14-7
Severn over Mount de sales 10-5
Roland Park over St Mary’s 9-3
Garrison over John Carroll 9-4

I just want to say that NDP broke McDonogh’s undefeated streak. Is anyone excited about this today? Do any kids currently in HS or headed to HS care?

NDP’s lax website is about as current and fresh as their head coach.

NDP did break the streak but there loss against GCS by 10 says a lot.. All there tough games are yet to come.

Wow, your day must be really boring.

Nobody cares about Girls lacrosse. Kinda like WNBA

lol, says the guy on a girls lacrosse messageboard.

Results trickling in.

JC over GF by 1.

John Carroll over Garrison 10-9. Garrison’s defense runs it up the entire field without moving the ball, trying to run through 4-5 girls. Garrison’s offense runs through 2 girls who only pass to each other. I would be looking for another school if my daughter went there. It did not seem like the coaches were doing much to stop this from happening.

GFS has been like the past 2-3 years. They (along w/ NDP) are going to have an exodus. GCS has resorted to this type of play.

GCS 6-5 over Mercy? Can someone explain how this was such a tight game?

So, how did those predictions work out yesterday?

wrong winner

2/5 and only 1 close.
Don’t quit your day job Mr lax expert.

I'm puzzled by GCS only beating Mercy 6-5...

GFS coach is leaving after this season. Girls on the team are not happy with the selfishness of the two girls and it is definitely causing a divide on the team. The coach seems to be checked out and doesn’t address them and their non-team efforts. Games are lost when teams don’t work together. I wouldn’t be surprised to see girls, who would be key players if they were allowed to be more involved, going elsewhere.

The twins?

Girls are migrating to St. Paul’s and McDonogh. However, teams always have there few favorites that they play. You see many talented girls sitting on the bench. Just know before you go.

☝️☝️☝️👍

Those twins are phenomenal. would look good on other teams. Maryvale?

Nobody would argue with you about them being phenomenal. I have heard the issue is they are not team players and that they would help GFS win more games if they didn’t try to run the same two plays that they have run for years on their club team.

The twins are probably the reason GFS is even competitive, let them leave and watch GFS fall right back to the bottom
