It takes getting to the college level to realize what ๐Ÿ‚๐Ÿ’ฉthe MIAA and everything pertaining to it really is. And I say that having two kids in MIAA.

Serious question - bull in what way? My experience traveling around the country is that for all its warts, the MIAA schools, down into upper MIAA-C, are SADLY a superior lacrosse product compared to 90% of what is offered nationally. Yes, a few HS in DC. Yes, IMG. Yes, DC/IAC. Yes, Long Island, Westchester, and MA are arguably better (at least some years). Sit with the parents from the best lax clubs in NC, GA, CO next time you're at a tournament. See them not even understand - even be shocked by - the physicality or complexity of the game that MIAA and IAC kids are playing with. .

Yea, but the MIAA kids are all graduating HS at the age of 20 while all the Long Island kids are graduating at 17/18 yrs old. So yea, the adults are going to play a lot more physical than the kids.
