Depends on the week. Dukes Nationals lineup changes for every event.

What tourney did they play a team from Colorado? I thought I saw somewhere the 2024 Team won a tourney. Are you eating that they lost to a 2025 Team from Colorado?

I actually saw Stone or self anointed as the Chosen One play. He is a nice player with good skills, can go both hands smoothly, plays X well and has a some good moves and shot; however, he is not one of the top ten players at 2024. I also saw a kid with questionable foot speed and average quickness. Again he is a good player but hardly warrants calling him the Chose One and by all accounts jumps from club to club with little loyalty to anyone.

Seriously --- why ?? Because he's a top 20 player that has "ball"ed into every roster. BTW aren't you talking about him too ?? Just sayin..

Uh duh...isn't this a 2024 lacrosse forum isn't that boy a 2024 lacrosse player? What's disgusting is your insinuation. Such vitriol...it's ok DAD as I said he is a good player but nothing more bit of a quitter though. Where I come from you finish the season and don't quit until the season is over.

Actually. , I'm refuting the [lacrosse] negativity and adding that he is a team player for anyone that is negative. So I'm not talking about him the way others do. This kid is a class act with tireless work ethic.

I have a'24 and a '21 and believe me when I say that puberty changes everything.
7/10 studs when they're in 6th grade don't pan out three years later.
We've all see the chubby attack man with sick stick skills that scores all those goals, right? Spoiler alert: he keeps eating. His dad then shows to tryouts saying every team needs a big crease guy. Guess what? No they don't.
Those little, quick defensemen? You better be over 6' as a rising freshman to make a real team let alone see the field.
Coaches do look at you, daddies. They see you're a fat slob and you're 5'2". Trust me. They see a dad that 6'5" vs you and your kid, all things being equal, who do you think they take?
Hard realities, guys. Bigger stronger faster starts to level out your kid's ability to go BTB in a U11 rec game (sweet highlight reel tho!!!).
Pray for your kid to hit puberty early or do what is the norm now: reclass him.
Good luck.

You can't blame a kid for jumping from team to team. It's the parents that allow it to happen as they are the ones that drive to practices. word travels fast and sooner or later team looking to develop will not want to deal with the parents. Sounds like the parents have been trained by TD.

I watched him closely at the Elite Eight Tournament. Due to all the hype, videos, and Chosen One Tag (can't believe anyone would have the balls to call their kid the Chose One at 5th grade). I remained objective and open minded and agree with the other poster. He is a good player but lets be honest the Elite Eight Tournament was stacked with top notch players. There were 15-20 kids that I would take in a heart beat if I was forming a roster at 2024. Did he stand out amongst all the other stud players, no, in fact I am not convinced he was the best player on his own team. At least two of their middies were as good if not better than him. Just basing this over a weekend of top notch play at the 2024 level.

This is dead on. Can't have a team of Pannells and think your going to succeed. Excited for these 1st grade all stars to take a seat and bring in some athletes. All the 5'6 dads can cry and moan al they want . It's over.

This is not true if you name is Matt?? Matt Rambo, Matt Ward, Matt Cavanaugh, all under 6' all the best player in college lax in the years they led their teams. There is also a starting 5'7" attack for OSU. The key is shorter players learn how to play v. taller bigger players. Evidence does not suggest you need to be over 6' to be a great lax player. Work on you quickness, toughness, and most of all hit the wall!

I'm looking for a 5'9 D pole. Said no coach ever.
Maybe an attack man or FOGO can get away with being smaller stature but come on, size is a factor. So is speed and quickness.
There are many exceptions, however, I think what the OP is getting at is puberty will change the game. I agree. Kids you've never heard of or seen play at a high level will literally come from nowhere and dominate. It is fun to see. What's even more fun is watching how the 6th grade superstar reacts to it. Does he elevate his game? Does he go to another team because he's not the man anymore? Does his daddy start bashing the organization and coaches because little Johnny isn't getting his PT or touches? It is very fun to watch.
No matter what, if you're on top as a 6th grader or on the third line of middies, hard work will be needed.

Hey 2024's aren't you lucky TD just added two 20 year old kids to coach your team and they are going to keep a "small" roster of 20...

Sounds like they both graduated MP in 2002. I'd then put them in their early to mid 30s? I'd be ok with that.
Twenty man roster? That doesn't sound like fun...But you figure each kid is an extra $2k for the team.
HHH carries a 25 man roster.

Sons is not going to be able to field any team below 23. the good players are already at established programs, why would they leave to play for a team run by some egomaniac who only cares about his kid.

RR is classless...parents do calisthenics after a goal and don't even know the rules. Of course that doesn't stop them from yelling...Coaches are obnoxious...ACT LIKE YOU'VE BEEN THERE BEFORE.
