Agree, not the top LI player. Both Floyd and SE play light schedules. Easy to rack up points. There are better players on LI playing harder schedules.

Seriously, SE dad needs to stop embarrassing himself. We all know Stats are relevant to team schedules , other players on team, playing time, etc. Stats are skewed on LI between the conferences. The mid teams can have the girl with the most stats. They can rack up tons on the crappy teams they play. SE played weak teams as well. Easy to rack up stats in those games. And, especially if shooting every time you touch the ball.

You should stop embarrassing yourself. The SE girl has been dominant on every level! Dominant last year playing with another top player, all tournament team at the All-American, top Yellow Jackets team. Now going to the top college level on the top team.

There is no denying she is a top player. Girl has worked her but off to get there! Its people like you who try to diminish her accomplishments with your nonsense. In sports you will always have different situations, but you can always see the talent.

I can't even imagine the Northport senior you are taliking about. Are you sure the girl you are thinking about isn't a junior?

BBP draw girl is best player in the county.

I pretty sure she is a sophomore.

Not embarrassing at all. Just stating facts for the trolls. Add All-American honorable mention and All-Long Island 2nd team last year while you're at it. Proof is in the pudding my friend!

My mistake you are correct! They also have a freshman that looks pretty good.

Let her talent speak for itself then. We will see in college. Whole different “ball game”! Come back here next year. We will see.

That’s a big stretch and not even the best on LI.

Take a deep breath mom or dad! Stop trying to convince everyone on here your daughter is the best that has ever played the game. There is plenty of dominant players on LI and on better teams with awards. It’s Going to be a little different in college when everyone is the star player from their HS teams. SE is not even at the top of the LI teams. Chill out, let’s see how college goes. She’s had a great HS career, everyone agrees. Star of SE, yes. Would she be at other top LI schools? Stats relevant to who you play.

It says “county” not “country” 🤦‍♂️

You are completely off-base. Obviously have no idea what you’re talking about. Just go troll another message board. You are obviously not from around here.

Why look back? Who really cares? Going to Northwestern! Time to study. LOL!

Doesn't she play on the same travel team that already has the best player in the country? How is she the best in the county?

Maybe switch to playoff talk? Just to get started

Having a better year.

She's not even the best player on BBP let alone the county

Ok, county! Sorry , I thought it said country. I apologize and maybe , yes. Not sure about Country? She is having a better year than the other player mentioned! I agree.

lol, wonder how much daddy had to do with that.

Syo lost to Farmindale.

Farmingdale vs Pequa in the final

SOS!!! What is happening to WANTAGH? The girls still use the same plays from when Rooney was around. But now those plays aren't working because they aren't NEW plays or RUPPERT'S PLAYS; they are OLD PLAYS!! My daughter graduated, and many alum families watched last night's game vs South Side. We still talk to many families with girls still on the team, and WANTAGH has to do something fast.

The new coach, Ruppert, is out of her league. She's not bringing anything to the table and is ruining that program. But despite the bad coaching, I've got to hand it to the girls; they're really stepping up. The team captains are doing an amazing job holding everyone together, and the players are really supporting one another.

It's great to see them keep their spirits up and try their best, even when things aren't running smoothly behind the scenes. Wantagh, figure it out! You can forget Manhasset. They already know to watch the film from Maddie Taylor's year.

Didn’t they win yday ?

Saw the game- One win. There’s talent there. Wantagh’s got to get some new coaches. Diglio & Cerasi on fire yesterday but so many others not taking opportunities.

No insight into the coaches but they only lost 4 games (St Anthonys, GC, Sacred Heart, Manhasset). No problem there, all top teams. And they have wins against CSH and South Side (x2). And this in context of losing their best player to injury early in year. At least from outside looking in they seem to be fine.

Agreed with you. Looks like some parents are not happy and have an agenda to garbage the coach...

Of the 4 losses. Only the loss vs St. Anthonys is a “bad loss”. All other losses are “quality” losses. all 3 of the other losses were under 2 goals (which could have easily went the other way for a W)
- vs GC 8-6 L - box score shows wantagh led by 1 after 3 qtrs but got outscored 4-1 in the 4thQ
- vs Sacred Heart 8-7 OT L
- vs Manhasset 12-11 L

Seems like Gritty players there. Does a “better” coach turn those 3 L’s into W’s?

Curious if anyone knows why this year Manhasset boys playing in Class B playoffs whereas Manhasset Girls playing in Class C playoffs? Is the class designation based on population based on specific population of Boys vs Girls? Thank you.

It's based on total enrollment, but the numbers are different between sports and between girls and boys in same sport. The B/C cutoff for boys is 734 while for girls it is 775. Not sure why but assume it takes into account boy/girl ratio on a statewide level as well as the difference in participation rates between boys and girls and the various sports.

I'm sure it's all very complicated, and I imagine there is that one person up in Albany entering numbers in a Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheet that nobody really understands.

Lotus 1-2-3 LOL they are also using typewriters and dial up

Section 11 should be embarrassed by allowing the Class B Championship to be held at West Islip. They charge to get into these games at high schools and are too cheap to pay to have it at Stony Brook. The officiating was horrendous and West Islip was treated as the home team and got plenty of homer calls. If you don't believe it, watch the game tape. It doesn't lie. Plus the fact they give yellow cards where none of the three officials saw anything, but a coach carrying on for five minutes and they cave to the badgering. It was a joke.

Section 11 should also be embarrassed for excluding some county award winners. The awards dinner on June 10th is limited to All county winners and seniors. Either don't give so many awards or find a larger venue.

Ok SW dad. Change the nickname to CHARGErs

It was poorly officiated but if you watch the game, you will see it wasn’t one sided. We tend to focus on end of the game calls. Not a charge, perhaps some embellishing. But WI had a goal taken away on an apparent dangerous shot where the only contact made was a stick hitting another stick, not the face even though the player acted like she was struck.l in the head before a miraculous 5 second recovery once the errant call was made.

As for the venue, any Suffolk team could have put in to host…smithtown as well as every other school in the counties did not.

LOL LOL You shold know your facts before you speak

To the SW parent complaining about WI hosting. Every coach could of thrown their hat in to host. Obviously no one else did so WI got the go ahead. It's sad the game from what i watch could of went anyway. WI had a goal taking away cause SW girl grabbed her head when she did not get hit. Teriible sportsmanship, especially when SW scored the swinging of their sticks. SW has many girls flopping as well but be angry cause you couldn't win....Congrats WI lol

WI kid gets hit with a shot its a yellow card...... I think SW is just disgruntle but maybe next year, WI players never gave up SW kids thought they won the game before the game started.

Which facts are you speaking of? The venue? All true. Perhaps the team should have been focused on the game and not the warm up music, the home and away bench, where fans sat etc… again more facts.

OK WI Dad/Coach
