Tryouts at the top MIAA High School level are a tough lesson for many players. Short of being some outlier or starter, If you have no "juice" ( Club, personal relationship, family) , expect to leave the field disappointed. The starters are already in the mind of the coach, most players are going after next years spots or backups this year. The level is not that different between players once you get pass the few stand out best players. You better have some " juice" or get really lucky.

Politics is still played in many MIAA teams and especially at tryouts. That is a fact. Most backups are only so athletic. Skilled for sure, but lets get real, these arent football players who run like gazelles and look like some Thoroughbred racehorse.


Some of the best lax players are standouts on their football teams as well you dolt.

You're now in the same club with that other BadPerson-nozzle that slimes around the boards spouting that nonsense that Lacrosse is for kids that aren't good enough athletes to play Football or Basketball. Absolutely stunning how ignorant you are!!!!


Didnt mean to get you all worked up Francis. Relax. Maybe next time read a little bit slower. Was talking about Backups and subs and gazelles. Even Football backups arent all gazelles.

There are some athletic D1 lacrosse college guys out there. DO you think more than 10-25% could make any Top or even a decent D1 Football program?
