Dukes/Koopers Hawks DCE RR any of those teams can beat each other. FCA Crabs 91 MD API Next Level
These teams all have some proving to do.
How many of the Koopers '21 kids are there? There better be a lot to supplement the Koopers '22 team. Since you can only be rostered on one team, I can't see the Dukes/Koopers team being consistent if they are relying on a few older kids dropping down and kids coming in from out of state, week in and week out.
I would add 91 MD, FCA, Madlax and Crabs to the top tier list. 91 was the '22 Natl. Champ finalist and has a pool of TX and NC players to pull from. Madlax stomped 91 this fall, so they are legit. FCA looks to have improved and despite the score against the Crabs, the Crabs looked strong throughout the fall. I would move RR down to the teams that have something to prove. They have solid coaching, but their team is small and don't looks as talented as the top tier teams. The struggled vs. API this fall. Who knows, maybe that means API is much improved. Not sure what Next Level has done since the spring.
I think there will be some surprises this year, but it is still the Hawks to lose with DCE close behind.
RR was short handed in most of the fall games. They have improved a lot getting top kids from 91Md and a few from other teams. They will be very tough this spring.Only team to always give Hawks a tough time. 91Md will not be able to call up out of state players for the Hoco league. Forgot about Mad Lax they will be up at the top too. Koopers have enough for a 22 elite and 22AA teams. They will just combine there best players from old team with 21's and other Duke kids . Not sure about the rules for allowing out of state players in the league. 91 will have same issue and anyone else with out of state players on roster. FCA added a few holdbacks as all teams have , simply the nature of the beast.There is a ton of talent on all the teams. It will be tough to run the table for any team. Only way Koopers team can compete is to bring in Duke players and 21's. Some 21's have just been playing up and are moving down so they can play during the spring.
What a string of nonsense. You know nothing about most of these teams. You are obviously a RR parent based on you advocating for them, but the rest of this is just pure conjecture. Only team to always give Hawks a tough time? I guess you are ignoring DC Express who beat them a couple weeks ago as well as the fact that as BLC they gave Hawks a tough game every meeting last year. You have no idea on what the Koopers team will consist of. You have no idea who FCA added because you are wrong in terms of them being holdbacks. The kids that went to RR from 91 were not their top players. There is no reason the out of state 91 kids can't come up for HOCO. They have done it in the past. If anything, it's easier this year as the games are on Saturday.
