Sure there is a difference. BBp beats ESM all the time as they do everyone else including Comack and the rest of them RVC and high voltage.

Guess I will respond. Well let me apologies on the behalf of the team then. We did not know he gave a player the finger and believe that must of happened by your response. Had the coach known he would of disciplined the child.

That said there was no 2023 kids who played up and the pinnies are reversible. Where there could be some confusion is that Adirondack FCA was playing in their first tournament and didn't have enough kids to play ( I think).

Sorry about a kid giving the finger.... think I know which kid would do that and will try and find out.

Sorry for my rant post yesterday also. I don't know why I posted because I knew it wouldn't do any good. I just want to let you guys know that in the Albany Tournament, Saratoga Shoot-out, the NXT Cup, etc... The Long Island teams typically had the loudest and most intense parents. You guys are way more intense than us. However, after you beat the FCA team on day one, the kids were ready for a battle and the parents pumped them up for it, so could see how intense it felt.

FCA scored like 3 goals the entire nxt cump tournament and got creamed by Long Island teams for sure. I guess we would be considered a B team on your level. That's ok with me. I might be more upset if there was anything other than a partial scholarship at the end of this rainbow.

SAT's matter way more to get into college than all of this is what I have learned with research.

Now you might respond of course that is your response if you son is on a B team or whatever, but honestly that isn't why. As a parent, I have no desire to see him win the lacrosse championship because there is no money for him to provide for his family one day. Now because that is his desire I will support him every step of the way, get him the best training, etc... But lacrosse will always be secondary to grades and will always be secondary to being a good person.

I will try and not respond again, and oh sorry for the bad English language above, was responding from my phone.

This is fun and a great way to not work! Have a great day everyone and just know that the culture of Long Island lacrosse isn't that way everywhere else. Think about how quickly your life has gone so far and what do you really want your kids to learn and remember about you as a parent and a mentor.

Sincerely,

Upstate NY - B Teams, and proud of it.

I love the assumption that crazy lacrosse parents couldn't not possibly be interested in their child's academic success.

This is a completely false assumption. If you think we're crazy about lacrosse, you should see us when it comes to school work. In our house, if you don't get good grades, you don't eat.

BBP and Commack are as good as they come.. and I'm not a resident of either of those towns. BBP has a bunch of solid WP boys and Commack has 2 WP boys that are as strong as it gets at there positions. They also have a middy that plays for the Outlaws I think who is real good also. We are 0-6 against these teams over the last 3 years and as much as it kills me to say that about them its the truth. We have a solid team as do other towns but not like those two.

Express will take them down on Friday

Beeee Teeeeams

D- Parent you are

If that makes you feel better, ok, give me an F as if you know but it's clear they are NOT ready for prime time.

Sachem East beat Empire White lost to Empire Green 9-4.

Great job but that Sharks team was basically made up of Huntington/Harbkrfields kids that practiced 3X before the tournament

whichever is Empires A team is who Sachem East beat Green White Blue Brown lmao.

And the bracket was won by a Greenwich team that had 0 kids on the bench. That's right 0 kids on the bench. How didn't they run them into the ground? And the answer is: These teams were terrible and they don't even come up to average on a good day.

Beeee TEEEAMS! Still not ready? The really good teams are waiting for you.

Do people still need to have 2023 kids playing in a 2024 bracket? Does your team suck that badly?

So WE all Know that WP and TAZ are the two top teams... (for Now) going into the spring season. Express A just beat Outlaws soundly on Friday. So I would say they are the 3rd team.But who falls in order beneath them? I would Go with Express O'Reilly then Outlaws then Igloo.

It's FALL BALL! Who cares?! At least wait until spring before you start rating.

One Empire team is Suffolk. One is Nassau. Which one is which?

You need to throw MadLax and Brotherly Love in there.
