Folks, this is about as good as it gets for an age group. Take a minute...
Madlax beat Hawks (x1) and Next Level (x3?). Hawks Beat Madlax (x3) Next Level (x3). Next Level beat Madlax in July and Hawks in the fall. Those are just three programs with a ton of talent and play the game at a high level for being so young. FCA, True Annapolis, Crabs and Blue Claws to name a few also had a some games so the future of 2028 is very bright in the area. This summer was a blast for my son and he actually made friends on other programs (gasp). With any luck, these kids will likely be on the same team in the future or keep playing against each other at the next level. The kids are doing MUCH better with sportsmanship than the parents it would appear so lets follow their example. NY/CT teams/parents were also a pleasant surprise after a few odd interactions at the older age groups. I will give some major kudos to out of town teams from Colorado and California who as a previous poster mentioned will catch up to east in no time. Hoco fall will be fun but many kids play football or soccer so the league will be diluted. Slate gets cleaned after tryouts and everyone will enter the fall at 0-0. Hopefully we get one last MD bored day ranking before tryouts!
