All the local tournaments are not strong this weekend. 91 and Madlax in the Capital and RR and not sure who all the other teams are in that tourney. Bay Bridge is a bunch of nothing. Leagues should play longer schedules. In the HOCO league you could play every team twice and get much better comp over a longer period. Then have like 2 or 3 major summer tournaments (1 in NY , 1 in Philly and 1 in MD) and that would be a great season of lacrosse.
When people say teams are "Trophy Hunting" I do not think that is the case for any elite level team. You sign up for tournaments blindly and when the final teams are released you get what you get. Organizers try and say we have AA , A , B but with no real direction from US lacrosse on what classifies what it is all a crap shoot. You know certain tournaments do drawl better comp so you want to try to go to them but when you try to fill your schedule with other tourneys then you get what registers. Next weekend will be a great tournament at young guns and then 2 weeks later the national champions will show who has improved. Good luck to all the teams playing this weekend and enjoy the beautiful weather!
