Smoke and mirrors as well. Impressive turnout but........
They had a majority of the 2025 sidewinders there They had a majority of the 2026 diamondbacks there They had kids from their Baltimore team there to fill space And, they had a ton of people there for a free lacrosse head
Tryouts were mixed age groups the entire time, as a parent you could not really get a grasp for who might be on your sons future team.
After selections I can tell you what the 2026 team might be from top to bottom: -An attackman who is phenomenal attacking the cage...but will not keep his head up or pass the ball. It will be a turnover if he can't get a shot off, not a pull out and reset. -A few strong midfielders from various HoCo AAA teams -An 0-7 Diamondbacks defense -A great goalie who has been with a different club every year.
Despite True being a non-parent coached team...with Diamondbacks as the core, and a couple other key members of the team...expect daddy ball and politics to be in full swing.
Great in who's eyes????
Should we know what goalie you are talking bout?

garbage. I think I know way too much about 11 year old goalies. I assume this is the kid who was on the Hawks this year. A good goalie but an even better kid. He was on the Diamondbacks the year before. Rumor has it that the Hawks former goalie is dropping back down to the team - which probably leaves this kid looking for a new team. If the tryouts was diamondbacks heavy, he was probably there.
I assume the Hawks will have a good goalie. If “rocket”, their old goalie, comes back that leaves last years goalie looking for a team. He is good enough to make most teams. Team 91 had two goalies - one I thought was strong. BLC has a strong kid. Folks like the AYLC goalie but I haven’t seen enough to have an opinion. He might be great.
Overall, goalie at this age is still a work in progress.
