2Way has been doing this for years. These Brunswick kids who are 2027’s but who “plan on doing a PG year” and are playing down in 2028 in the meantime. Complete BS. Don’t know if LE is guilty of such, but that would be pathetic if so. I suspect the BBL parents would know if this is accurate or not… and I agree, holdbacks are part of the game at this point— but your kid actually needs to hold back, and then deal with that process in itself


You might be able to call out 2way for being an almost national team but according to my son who has friends on the team, they only added a fogo and goalie since last year. Apparently the fogo is a Maryland kid. I saw them play the crabs this weekend. They were outsized by the crabs but their skill and athleticism was far superior.

2way definitely pooling kids from many different areas, as long as their all in the grade I have no issues with them at all. Additionally, I have seen them play, they’re fast, athletic and very skilled.

Now LE on the other hand, it appears the speculation of them using current 2027’s is true, all I can say is SHAME, SHAME, SHAME!
What parent would actually allow their child to play down a grade, losers!

Not even close.

The worst parents out there are the ones who allow their kids who aren’t in the grade to play down. You know, the we’re thinking about reclassing or just helping out type. Those are the actual WORST!

More like deuces. Team is a complete shell. Rebels won’t have AA 30 team on paper next year.

Much ado about nothing. Just another age-cheater who was caught, and now backpedaling.
I think the lawsuit that is most likely winnable here is the one of defamation of a gov't employee.

Depends. Does your kid have college lacrosse dreams? If so go somewhere with good coaches where he'll play a lot. Can't be recruited if you're standing on the sidelines.

Re: Boys High School Anonymous 2 hours ago
Knowing close family and friends who are getting significant money at those programs, they most certainly are recruiting numbers, not talent.

Families are free to do what they think is best. And a discounted tuition rate might be worth it.

But stop crying in the stands and on BOTC when your kid doesn't sniff field for 4 years.

The parents should know what they are getting into. With those numbers, the vast majority of the kids won't be good enough to see much playing time.

It's not a scandal. It's just common sense reality.

They should have never picked up a team from HOCO. All M&D wants is the money that each team makes.

The two or three girls who always have the ball in their sticks are the ones who are trying to get on YJA. The competition between the teams creates a weird dynamic on the team.

Re: Girls 2026 Grads - Mid Atlantic Region Anonymous 2 hours ago
So Live Love Lax is behind us. I have a very disappointed daughter as she has been anticipating to see what coaches would look at her recruiting profile and she got zero notifications. She played well and contributes on her IAAM hs team. She’s on a mid-tier club team so her games don’t attract the same attention as others. She knows this only the first tournament, but she’s been sending her emails to coaches fans getting her film out there. She was excited for this summer, but the reality of now looks has been sobering. I’m worried for her and all the pressure she is under. She is going to attend a few prospect days this summer as well as a showcase so we know she’ll be seen by schools that she is interested in.

For those who have been through this before, how did you help your daughter with the mental aspect of recruiting ? Is it too early to reset expectations?

So which round of states did your team lose in or you are just one of those haters that will never grow up.

Here’s what I am…not Daler garbage that puts HS kids name on here all the while moaning about a truthful comment that the team is soft. Farmingdale is a garbage town with garbage parents who put kids names on here because they got smoked by another school. That’s it. Goodnight Daler mom, you’re still low class.

You're so insecure that you go onto an anonymous forum and spout nonsense. I'm sure your friends & family LOVE you. Better luck next year.

1. Igloo #93
2. Legacy Lumberjacks #46
3. FCA #15
4. Primetime #51
5. Madlax #36
6. 3d Garden State #97

ML got absolutely pummeled by FCA 14-0. They also LOST to Igloo. They then went on to beat 3d GS, which is a B team, and NXT #59 . Then got manhandled by Dukes who wasn't even trying. I know because I watched that game.

The fact that TWO teams get to come out of this bracket is disgraceful. What a complete joke.

If the whole bracket was a joke besides FCA, why did FCA not go 3-0? Do tell.

Just one of those games vs. Legacy. Down 4-0 early, lots of penalties, Legacy's goalie was hot, lost 6-5. Legacy started bleeding the clock right after halftime. Everything that could go wrong did type of game. Just a horrible loss to a team FCA should beat by 5+. The games vs. 3d NE (lost by 2) and BBL (won by 1) were good games.

perhaps FCA is over ranked at 15. if the one "good" team was not as good as billed, that makes the founders pool even more of a sham that it is already.

We beat them 3-1. Why? Because they didn't bring their SA ringers with them. I don't know the guys who run it except by name only, but judging by the comments on here, i guess we shouldn't be surprise. that's bush league. They should be ashamed. If you're a B team, then play B team tournaments. If you're an A team, then play A/AA team tournaments. Made them look like @ChillLaxin IMO.

Amen! Glad you got a fair chance
Score one for the good guys
News flash if you on this forum bashing kids teams or anyone you’re not a good person. So go yell at your husband or wife and shut your mouth

Should they yell at their husband/wife or shut their mouth? They can’t do both, please make up your mind.
Haaa! Good one. This clown prob yells at his wife in sign language
