Great stick check call on NEs part...Team was very good...but take it easy with all the posts cutting on other teams....
Nobody is cutting on other teams (except maybe some Maryland guys before they lost). It was a great stick check. And lets not forget the game was already won once at the end of regulation before the refs decided to after-the-fact inform the 8-meter shooter the clock had been on zero. It was a great game all-around by both teams. Had some strange/crazy situations go for and against both teams. Based on the finals score (16-7 over Philly), it looks like it was the game that decided the winner. Congrats to LI and to all the other girls who made teams. These people on here saying it's a money grab (no fee for tournament just for try-out) are wrong. It is a highly competitive tournament, with many great players from all over the country. The point about the commits is just that. People are trying to say that that the reason LI didn't win is the try-out process is flawed. That's nonsense. It is ok to say that there sometimes are other good teams (as you did) and leave it at that. There doesn't always have to be an excuse.
Stick check is BS, more than half the sticks on the summer circuit are illegal, but there is no time to check every team before every game, that's a bush league move by someone desperate to win a game
