I am probably not going out on a limb with these predictions. But from the chatter and talking to a few parents we know from other teams.
Hero's and M&D have had lower turnout numbers but the "free agents" who have shown up have been high quality. Expect them to be stronger. Clearly separating themselves in Maryland. Probably for the next 3-4 years.
Bethesda had a good turnout. But probably not a lot of changeover. Still strong. They didn't need much
Skywalkers will improve. Lots of kids trying out. They were lacking top level talent. And speculation is as many as 10 new faces on Blue. I'd bet a lot of current Blue players end up on white. Or leave all together. But this was needed. The 27 team has been a bottom dweller for a few years now. Maybe this kickstarts a climb. Even so, they won't challenge Hero's or M&D. The players moving to Skywalkers are solid, but not Elite.
Nems and MDU are bleeding top level players. If they accept spots on other teams based on their tryouts, these 2 teams could be in trouble. Which is a shame.
Do not know anyone on Coppermine. But would think with all of the facilities they have now, they should attract good mid-level talent.
Hopefully everyone finds the right home for their daughters.
Why don't you wait until tryouts are over before you post this speculation. Heros and M&D separating themselves? Wow, breaking news.
End of day, unless you are replacing good starters for great starters, you aren't really widening the gap against other teams. Replacing backups for backups isn't making a difference. Now if M&D and Hero's found new starters at tryouts, fine, but what happens to the starters on Heros and M&D they are replacing?
