I have a lot of respect for Crush and was suprised to see the score, given Crabs beat Breakers 6-5 after Crush beat Breakers 9-1.
JS just tweeted "Note to kid laxers if your a 2018 and play 2020 DONT post it on your Instagram. That would be cheating"
And I thought my little town had lax drama!
Did JS check what 2018 kids posted on Instagram from his car on the way home?
Regardless of how/when he found it-he is right. My guess is a Maryland parent shared it with him as Crabs have embarrassed Maryland this weekend with blatant roster loading.
Easy to find the info. One player brought down to play 2020 with Crabs is listed in a private school 8th grade graduating class list and one forgot to change his recruiting profile page from 2019 to 2020 and is listed on another 8th grade private school graduating list. Not hard to find the info out there. Technically they are not 2020s yet as most of the 2020 teams are still in school attending 7th grade classes. Next year they can be fully embarrassed by having pre-1st years and holding back in 8th grade and try to look their opponents in the eye knowing they have manipulated the system. Shame on the parents and the organization.
So having many players that were held back early on your team like Crush has is ok, until they lose to team that has late hold backs on their team. Too funny!
The same kids rostered on Crush' 2020 team will be going to Denver as age appropriate. At least 8 of the kids who played for Crabs 2020 this weekend at Beach Lax do not make the generous age cut off. They are pre 1st holdbacks and 8th grade holdbacks. In fact, several of their regular 2020 NYPLL roster do not make he age cut off.
You must have a tremendous amount of free time, and your detailed knowledge about these boys is borderline disturbing.
Do not need a load of time to figure out that these boys were rostered last week as 2019 and this week as 2020. Stop trying to deflect the issue that your team is openly putting boys 1-2 years older on the field and hiding behind a pre-1st and 8th grade repeat year that makes them "eligible". When they step on the same fields as boys that have been in the same school with them for years and are suddenly playing 7th grade when they graduated from 8th grade last week at said school it is pretty obvious. Respect needs to be earned and Crabs can fool themselves all they want but nobody has respect for them regardless of how many ships they take home if they have to cheat to do it.
