Yes, FCA Maryland is legit. Not a lot has been heard about this club comparatively speaking with the other Maryland select teams. Maybe its because they only do a few local tournaments each year since most of their kids play on the other Maryland select clubs. This is an all-star team and is basically a feeder program to the Maryland catholic high schools - arguably one of the best high school leagues in the country. So there is no shame in losing to this team in the championship. Just a little disappointing because we had them down in the 4th quarter of both games. But they found a way to win both times and deserve to be champs. Funny, some of their parents said they were getting ready for us for weeks - we knew nothing about them. Well, we know who they are now and we will be amped up to play them next year. It will be fun and this time we will be the hunter and not the hunted - refreshing. Congrats FCA Maryland - this was a class group and it was all you could ask for in a championship game - clean, well-played, competitive, and down to the wire. Numerous casual observers asked me "how old the kids were" and were stunned by the answer. Thats a testament to the players on both teams and their coaches. oh and as far as the 91 vs. DD "who is better debate" is concerned - other than a few parents trying to live vicariously through their kids; who cares? The kids dont!
