Great first week of club lacrosse. Smash is back, Looks like they got bigger and faster at every position. Going to be tough to beat with or without JR.
Week 1 Ranks;
1. Smash 2. West Coast Starz 3. Crabs 4. Primetime 5. Igloo 6. DC Express 7. Team 91 MD 8. HHH 9. Leading Edge 10. API Diamond Backs
LI Express had a bunch of kids missing do to injury. Will be interesting to see how the Holdback Hawks do this year with out their big Goalie who now plays for the Crabs.
API finished dead last in Maryland spring club league and got blown out most games. No way they are a top 10 team.
APi made championship game this weekend in a very good tournament -
The MD team rankings are fairly well established. The teams played each other in a real league with real refs all spring. (No geriatric refs on sloping, un-mowed, small fields with running clocks, guest players, and other summer BS)
Hawks 6-1 (Tourney Champs) Madlax 6-1 Koopers/Dukes/Slante team 5-2 (1 forfeit) Crabs 5-2 FCA 3-4 (1 win by forfeit - Tourney Runner Up) DC Express 3-4 Roughriders MD 2-5 Team 91MD 1-6 API Diamonbacks 1-7
All these teams are very good, any one of the top 6 could win on any given day.
That being said, the Hawks went 3-2-1 this weekend with losses to DC Express, LI Express, and Tied BBL.
