I thought you had to show up to both nights of UA tryouts to make the team. What a joke! That team was picked and influenced way before tryouts started. The kids even heard someone (adult) say it at all star game. Same old lacrosse BS

-----------------------------

Unfortunately, the 1st night of UA Tryouts conflicted with both the Nassau County and Suffolk County Lacrosse Awards dinner events. If you look at the Highlight Roster you will see at least 2 All-Americans as well as All-County (mostly 2X all-county) for most other public school kids on the team. As leaders on their respective teams it was important for them to be at these events.

So do you think all of these kids (who are likely the best kids on LI) not be eligible due to the conflict?

Really?

UA has sold out. Gone the way of the brine events national AA regionals. No legitamacy. What a shame, was once the premier event. Corrigan sports, really..almost half the kids on the 17/18 team are from two towns. No one else knows how to play lacrosse on LI ? hoping for better outcome in tourney then years prior for LI.

Yes, it's called accountability. You can't post specific rules to the tryout and not follow it. Conflicts happen all the time for various reasons. Choices have consequences, no matter how noble or legitimate they may be.

So thats fair to the kids that went both nights? Sorry, if you want to make a team and the tryouts are both nights, you should have to go both nights like everyone else. It actually doesnt matter in this case because this team was picked before the tryouts even started so this is a moot conversation.

Really - my son had to make a choice based on the rules as presented on the website. He was Honorable Mention All County. He chose the UA tryout and on Thursday, he was saying what a joke it was since there were a bunch of other All County players there for Thursday only.....and then made the team. It's a rule - but only for some!

The main page for UA says "Players selected to the 22 player roster must have registered and checked in on the first day of the tryout. No exceptions." And then if you do some searching (and call the organizers who tell you where to look buried in the FAQs) you find " Player must submit and official letter documenting excuse for missing to lacrosse@corrigansports.com at least one week before tryout. All requests will be reviewed and Player may be granted special permission and instruction to check in on day two of the tryout." So there no exceptions except for the exceptions. Or you can parse words and "check in" to get your pinnie and then head to the All County Dinner with plenty of time to spare.

It all plays out in the end. The kids who were "all stars" because daddy controlled it are the ones that get to college and either don't play, quit, get kicked off teams and out of schools or transfer to a lower level schools. I've seen it over and over

I had gone back a forth on this issue a few times for other events. IMHO The boys who attended the County dinner have a pass for the first night but then you show up the second night, as some did.

You don't show you don't make it. The organization should have put a disclaimer in for those boys, instead it said you need to be registered and checked in the first night. I guess it never said in person.

Every kid who made the UA LI Team - Highlight Roster is a D1 verbal Committed player.

JHU - 5 kids
Maryland - 2 kids
Cornell - 2 kids
Michigan - 2 kids
Lehigh - 2 kids
Loyola - 2 kids
PSU - 1 kid
SBU - 1 kid
Duke - 1 kid
UNC - 1 kid
Villanova - 1 kid
Yale - 1 kid
Harvard - 1 kid

The public school kids include 2 All-Americans and virtually all other kids are all county for one or two years.

A bunch of the best D! college coaches and panels of HS coaches in Nassau and Suffolk think highly of these kids independent from UA Evaluators.

it is unfortunate that UA tryouts were on same day as the county awards dinners... this was not the fault of these kids.

It's endless...just come to the realization your kid isn't as good as the kids who made it...It's an incredible team with student athletes verbally committed to some incredible schools...

The endless whining wears thin...If your kid was a standout and showed it on the field they would be there. I do not know one coach who would select a team to lose...you're probably the same parent who complains about playing time...yes you're right...coaches play less talented kids so they can lose so your fantastic, highly skilled kid can sit on the bench...

Stop with the personal persecution complaining...it's a game! And, a game with no future ahead of it. Unless you want to play for the Lizards and make $15,000 a summer. LOL... Take advantage of the opportunities you earn and move on!

There is always the uncommitted games. All hope is not lost, just because there are obstacles and things you do not see eye to eye never give up. It is not how you fall but how you rise up!

So kinda like how they picked last years team and went to the tournament and got smoked? Pretty good bet theyll go down and get smoked again. Having said that, the argument is not about whether or not the kids who were picked are good players, its about the process. Clearly in this case the kids were picked before the tryout began and kids were allowed to not show up to both nights. If that was the case, why not pick the team beforehand and forego the tryout and save everyone the time and money? Additionally this same group of kids has been picked time and time again for almost every high profile event there is dating back several years, its a little ridiculous now. Oh and not to mention the fact that 18 out of the 22 kids chosen play for or have played for the club that one of the head evaluators owns. If you cant understand why people are upset, you clearly have no clue.

This list is the team from LI and its impressive. But several D1 commits from LI weren't added. All VERY STRONG players even if they didnt make it. Truth is from LI, PA & MD it should be 25 man roster due to the mass amount of talent in those areas. What the [lacrosse] a few more $$$ in UA pocket.

No doubt they are all excellent players, but if you think this evaluation process is legit then the sky probably isn't blue in your world. Kids are passed on and overlooked every year so the so called "independent evaluators" can take their own guys. Most of these kids play for the right clubs and are affiliated with the right people to be considered before the try outs start. We all know who runs this show and how it works. The only way for it to be fair would be to bring in real independent evaluators. I'm sure some of the same kids would make it, but I bet there would also be some new names that we haven't seen much of.

List is 100% correct..

I guess u either can't read (details are straight from the UA site) or u r delusional.

Tryouts for UA are not mandatory... If u don't like the process or event don't try out... There are many other events available.

Have a nice summer!

my personal take on this is as follows - My son chose to go to the first night of the tryout instead of the dinner, he does not regret the decision even though he now knows he could have just come the second night. He is uncommitted so playing in front of a lot of good college coaches was well worth the money, He was picked for the final game but not for the final team and that is about correct based on the players that made it over him that are clearly better players. He was picked for the uncommitted game and is going to play in that so while I understand people being upset with the process we were pretty happy and we will return next year to try again.

Who cares where they are going to college! That doesn't make them a great player. Some commit to play at schools that they got no Athletic money to go to and will probably never see the field. This has been a catholic/express driven tryout and everyone knows it! It is what it is. Mike C and company are going to take the kids they are comfortable with. The girls side has the same complaints with the YJ's. The only problem is that The LI boys lose and the girls win! You would think that you might want to step outside your comfort zone and actually try to find some gritty players to add to your silver spoon kids! But That won't happen, it's not good for business!

Just saw the list. I guess my son should have tried out based on some of these names. Politics politics politics at its best. I will leave it at that. Looks like a dominant Catholic league team with a few public throw ins to make it look good..Too funny

Such foolish comments. Most of this team is PUBLIC school kids. As far as lax $$$ in college, how the heck do you know what (or what not) 22 kids are getting? Stop being bitter, these kids are all very strong players. I watched the last game and most of these kids played great.

This list is the team from LI and its impressive. But several D1 commits from LI weren't added. All VERY STRONG players even if they didnt make it. Truth is from LI, PA & MD it should be 25 man roster due to the mass amount of talent in those areas. What the [lacrosse] a few more $$$ in UA pocket.

Hopkins - 5
Maryland - 2
Loyola - 2
Duke - 1
PSU - 1
Mich - 2
Cornell - 2
Bucknell -1
Yale - 1
Harvard - 1
Nova - 1
Lehigh - 1
SB -1
UNC -1




Who cares where they are going to college! That doesn't make them a great player. Some commit to play at schools that they got no Athletic money to go to and will probably never see the field. This has been a catholic/express driven tryout and everyone knows it! It is what it is. Mike C and company are going to take the kids they are comfortable with. The girls side has the same complaints with the YJ's. The only problem is that The LI boys lose and the girls win! You would think that you might want to step outside your comfort zone and actually try to find some gritty players to add to your silver spoon kids! But That won't happen, it's not good for business!


Seem like you know a lot. So can you please tell me which of the NCAA programs listed are the catholic school kids? Thanks.

Tryouts for UA are not mandatory... If u don't like the process or event don't try out... There are many other events available.

Have a nice summer!


I see two list which is correct?




Just saw the list. I guess my son should have tried out based on some of these names. Politics politics politics at its best. I will leave it at that. Looks like a dominant Catholic league team with a few public throw ins to make it look good..Too funny


There are 4 catholic school kids out of 22. Read instead of assuming and hating.

They commit to the schools that will best serve them after college is over and wether they see the field or not as listed in post 171857
Lacrosse aided them into getting I mayo that school
College is a small portion of your life just like high school before that
Don't live to remember the glory
Live your life to create more as you go along in the entire journey
