[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Shouldn't have the Hawks team been in high school next year ...we are so great at lacrosse I can beat kids that I'm 2 years older then .mom and dad be proud of me because I can't play kids my own age I wouldn't be good. The Hawks couldn't win the big one when other teams had equal amount of holdbacks. Choke 10-4
just not true
While the guy is a [lacrosse] and uses poor grammar, what exactly isn't true? They do have a bunch of holdbacks and got run off the field by Dukes 10-4.
what is your definition of a bunch
4 Hawks summer birthdays are "a bunch" of holdbacks.
4 is not a bunch of anything, i would also think in this day and age that a lot of teams 4 would put you on the
I guess the best players go to where the best players play??...?? The Dukes website alumni list is pretty impressive: Tewaaraton winner, Tewaaraton finalists, D1 all-americans, professionals, champions, etc. I have to admit its pretty impressive.
you could see a lot of the same names on other club's alumni lists
You probably could see many names on other teams lists! So the hundreds of names on the Duke's alumni list must be a FLUKE!!!! Drew Adams, Greg Gurenlian, Joey Sankey, Jordan Wolf, Matt Rambo, Mike Sowers, Niko Amato, Tucker Durkin, Austin Pifani, just to name a few. LOL[/quote]
No fluke but more of a college visibility thing than a true club coaching and developing thing. Just like crabs had the top high school kids for a couple tourneys to get in front of coaches, Dukes does as well. Remember Paul Rabil was a Crab for ONE (1) tournament and now his picture is the face of their website.

All of those names on the Dukes Alumni list are from the Dukes High school club. That club used to be the only high level high school lacrosse club in the Philly and South Jersey area. It would basically be like forming one high school team from all of D.C, Baltimore, Northern Va and Annapolis. Now there are many more high school clubs in the area and the Dukes HS teams are good but their monopoly on the talent pool is over. Dukes Nationals will never have HS teams, because there is already a Dukes LC high school model in place that has been successful for over 20 years and the original Dukes owner will never let DN overtake his brand. DN's model is a money grab, nothing more
