Yes, very different. Just check on the number of Devision 1 All Americans over the past five or 10 years. West Islip might compare and Smithtown West put out a great player but that is about it. How many Devision 1 All Americans has Smithtown East produced? (i really don't know). I don't think Ward Melville has produced a Devision 1 All American who graduated HS in the past 15 years. They are all strong programs but they are not preparing their players to excel at the Devision 1 level.


Sorry about the spelling... Division
