So what Northport isn't as great this year, the girls are still out there playing their hearts out. It's actually sickening that the people on this board are talking about high school students lacrosse teams like this. Teams lose and teams win. Some teams are great some teams are okay. The girls are out there for themselves and for the love of the game. No reason to criticize them for it because they lost by a certain amount of goals to a good team or because they lost some decent players so there not as well-off.
Am I the only person here thinking this is one of the same parents that less than a week ago boasted how East and Northport are the greatest teams on L.I. Yes I agree that the girls are playing there harts out simply for the love of the game, but now you must agree that it's the parents that come on here boasting how there girl plays for this school, and will be attending this college, and plays for this club. You Must also agree that club ties, family ties , and school politics are hurting good players to advance there own agenda. All of this breeds animosity and jealousy. Now you going to say that there is nothing wrong with congratulating ones daughter and teammates , and I agree, I just think doing it on a web site seems a little braggadocios . My daughter plays and will attend a D1 college, I walked into her bedroom and congratulated her, when her friends got accepted to colleges, I congratulated them when I saw them at practice or games. Don't come here now like you above it all, your the cause of it all. Now reap what you sow
