Actually MADLAX had a pretty good turnout if you think about it in these terms. The MD kids went to the MD tryouts so that filtered quite a few kids out of the VA. Plus the tryouts were grade-based instead of Uxx for the youth teams. Basically the same number of kids were at the 2020 tryout as attended the U13 tryout for both MD and VA last year. Not bad for changing the program so that Orange is perceived as super-team 'Capital'.
