ok, i see that express, 91 and team li try outs were all completed. from what I saw last year, these were three pretty evenly matched groups. No disrespect to any other li team in this age group, but in my opinion, these three were the most competitive games. yes, I am an express parent.

I think express orange (now terps) added a couple attack, a middie and a pole or two.

Team LI and 91 parents, how much did your teams change if at all?
For other teams, Jesters, true blue...how did tryouts treat your team?

Team LI lost several players. Don't know who they picked up but count on them being well coached.

A "touted" D pole? Are you insane? These are 12/13yr olds...Get a grip. This is no reference or disparagement to ANY team, be it Express, 91, etc, etc, etc... It is only regarding that comment.

It differs by year. 2018 is different than 2016.

What are the best clinics for defensive training? My boys have done a couple of camps and clinics are have not been thrilled with the level and amount of training. Too often there is too much horsing around and not enough teaching going on. We are looking for suggestions. Thank you

Have you considered the Pro Box Lacrosse Wednesday nights camp starting next Wednesday, October 10th. Set indoors in the Canadian Box Lacrosse tradition, this event will stress stick work and basic skills with Pat McCabe driving the defensive training.

Pat McCabe is an excellent coach, but at this age put your focus on their athleticsm. Either speed training, cross-training, or anything to get the optimal work on his foot speed and skills. You can find this in various locations - find a trainer and go get a trial session - if they like the workout book a package - make them a better athlete - they will become a better lacrosse player - not just a D player

91 orange did not! We slowed our team down a bit, and should be weak at best. We also decided to forego practices for pizza and beer sessions done on-line with x-box. We are raring to go for next season!--think before you post, meatwhistle

I know someone who played for Team LI. They combined some of their 2017 players with their 2018 players. I guess they are going to be playing U15 in tournaments. Their best attackman (2018) went to 91 Xtream. cool

I have to say, I think the advantage goes to Express this year. Player talent level is evenly matched, but coaching would tip the scale to Express.

We all know there are many good players in this age group on LI. Let's not swell ego's here by claiming best of anything or "touted". It sounds ridiculous. Let's leave it at "there are many talented players" - keeping in mind they're 12! There are also skilled players which have not even entered the "travel" arena yet.

We really should congratulate the express terps for the tremendous win in the skull and bones tournament. They beat the 11 man docs team to get into the final over the Patriots. Terps played a game of catch to keep the Patriots out of the final. We watched the game it was awful! the docs kids had 11 kids team =express could not let them score or the patriots would get into the final. Everyone watched and called for them to play - express no heart, no class. What a win, great coaching.

terps beat docs 13-0. this game easily could have gone to 20-0. true, the last few minutes of the game were not fun to play or watch, but it was clear the terps were by far the best team out there on that particular day, and in a way, can't fault the coach to look to get their team into a championship game. who would it have benefited if terps one that game 25-1 (besides the patriots). btw, the championship game was a good one, prob the best lacrosse of the day for that age bracket. as for docs, they had no business being at that tournament.

Stop with the nonsense. express could have one by 30 goals and did not. of course they wanted to make the championship game, what team or coach doesnt...

Blame the tournament for the ridiculous goal against tie breaker. it could have been goal differential, but then you people would be complaining if the express scored 40 goals a game.

some of these teams clearly cant compete at this level, so why go to this tournament, go to one that is less competitive.

i feel bad for the patriot team, but unless they were to play against express head to head--there are no tournaments i am aware of where there are playoff tie breakers--one team would be upset. in this case the express played within the rules and won the championship.

classless, really? please relax open your eyes and consider your words carefully....

You are here eading Back of the Cage instead of helping somebody. These remarks that people are commenting from are from a tournament that happened before the devastation. I happened to be a player from a team in that tourn. I dont understand why the championship was set up with goals against,stupid.My team watched and the best team won and any of the coaches would have done the same to play to the end. Good players on the Terps i know some kids from camp they are good sports and competitive.Too bad some of you adults dont learn from us kids that actually play the game.

we played the 2018 team 91 white team at halloween havoc a few weeks ago and they look real good. They actually won the tournament. We lost to them by a fair margin. There was no hot doggin or unsportsmanlike conduct by the players or coach. He is intense and loud. Seem to be a strong team look forward to seeing them in the summer. This 2018 group for all clubs is a talented bunch overall. I hope the Express, Jesters, 91, True Blue, Team Long Island (no paticular order)and all other LI teams have the opportunity to play each other more often this year.

Would be nice for these LI teams to play more but some teams or clubs feel they have more to lose than they have to gain by playing other LI teams and losing. My motto is to be the best beat the best. It's the only way to claim your number one. They should have an all long island & ny tournament from each age group. Winners then will meet the winners from each age group of other states like NJ, Maryland, etc. No ducking or making claims your the best. Can't miss this type of tournament and say your number one. Who's got the balls to put this tournament together. You can have seeding like they do in wrestling based on head to heads etc. Coaches would meet with tournament directors to do seeding. With a little more thought could get interesting. Everyone invited coaches discretion.(can't cry if you enter and get your butt handed to you) It's the best of the best. Alex M
