Thoughts on the NLF Super Series coming up in about 3 weeks? Looks like a great group of teams in the 2026 division. Should be very competitive with a lot of high level youth lax.
Annapolis Hawks (MD) Bethesda LC Blue (MD) Big 4 HHH (PA) Express North Lemma (CT/NY) Laxachusetts Black (MA) LI Express Haugen (NY/LI) Prime Time (CT/NY) Team 91 LI Orange Storm (NY/LI) Tigers XXVI (MD)
BLC was getting warmed up against the big boys like Saltwater, NXT Philly and True MD last weekend. They should be good to go.
Saltwater is a rec team, True just started practicing and Ive never seen a good NXT team since my 2010
Well....Saltwater beat FCA which competed fine in the Elite bracket. True MD had kids from Looney's, AYLC and others on it. They were not a bad team at all. (Will agree that NXT was pretty bad.)
More than anything, my understanding is that BLC was looking for a local tournament that didn't require travel or overnight stays. With NLF the following week, no one wanted to pay for hotels two weeks in a row. The competition wasn't bad and this was an economical decision. Shore wars would have been fun but there is only so much money to spend on 11-year-olds playing lacrosse.
