I'm a surgeon - I'm up early. I've had two kids play in the MD competitive club lacrosse scene. I know how the fat crab rolls. You will see a mass migration of 21s to the 22 team shortly. Remember the stunt they pulled against 91 at Beach Lax a couple of years ago? How did they do in Denver at the WSYL when they couldn't play their holdbacks? They got destroyed on national tv. No - no other team has more holdbacks or encourages holding your kid back like Crabs.
The blame likely lies at the feet of McDonogh, Boys Latin, Loyola, etc.
If there is any chance your kid is not going to come in to the school getting straight As, they recommend repeating 8th grade to get the kid up to speed on the school curriculum so that their transcript for college is as good as it can possibly be.
