This is actually a terrible idea. The evaluators are trying to choose the best players in the area to field the most competitive team to represent Baltimore. Players are chosen not only on the tryout but their overall body of work as they should be. Brendan Grimes had an ok tryout yesterday, imagine someone not knowing him and not selecting him. Even though he was one the best attackmen in the country and had a phenomenal spring season. That's why people who know the players select the team. Want to make the team? Then be consistently one of the best players in your region over the spring and summer, not just for a 2 day tryout.


Hilarious. You reinforce what many are saying. That this isnt a tryout , the team is already picked with a few leftover spots. Being the best player for spring and summer is not a being the best at a tryout. That is why they call it a tryout..not the Allstar team made up of people in the know.

Now if UA changes the name to Allstar team made up of people in the know , well no one can complain.
