Best kid at UA Command was a holdback - enough said.
You can't holdback in public school
I am quite sure many were waitign for this one to blow up. I do give this boy/family credit becasue he typically plays his age and doesnt play down. Me, Ill give him the pass on these because it is grade based.
What I hate are those who hold back and play down on travel, if you are that good why not play your age on travel.
Then he should have played on the Highlight division. They could have used him there, on the other hand, Command would not have one without him despite having a stacked team. They stuggled at the f/o x, and the attack, besides the two crushers, was nonexistant. Defense was weak as well with the exception of the OSU commit
Hmmm, "would not have won without him", "struggled at the f/o x", "and attack besides two crushers was non existent", "defense was weak" - didn't they go undefeated without any real challenge? All the beards on Baltimore was quite impressive. That must have stung playing down and still losing. Ouch!
Yep, it's what happened when they played the championship. They would not have won that game if they didn't have the Hills kid. He won the game for them which is why he was MVP. I'll give a shoutout to the 2nd half goalie as well after they lost the most important f/o of the game.
dude (or dudette),
The game is on utube. I think many kids impressed. Is UNC kid supposed to be a JR in HS? Is second half goalie supposed to be 2020, not 2021?
On LI, as I am sure all over the regions, some players are there for political reasons while others missed the opportunity altogether. Player had a good game, as he should, he is older; but had he not have been there the dynamics may have been different and another player may have stepped up and another given the opportunity. Can't go back and say could've should've.
I always thought on LI UA replaced the Nassau-Suffolk games, this was the Catholic school version. Kudos for public school kids.
I also don't know why you take players who don't live on LI. Make a metro team. You don't live in Nassau or Suffolk how do you get to be a LI player. But please, put everything in perspective, all of these players are not typical.
