Where is Patriot and SJ Black Storm in rankings?

Patriot was meant to be in the list. SJ is a solid program too but I wouldn't say they are a top tier AA level program

Did SJ beat Freedom and go to wsyl?

No one likes SJ Black Storm & their parents. They sandbag at every level but 2022 and parents look like they just came back from a David Allen Coe festival

Steps?? Laker Future is better.. they drop off when they roll out as Steps..

Laker Future doesn't go to any top tournaments.

Leading Edge vs Annapolis Hawks on Sat.

Hawks win 6-2

Wow! The hawks are getting a lot better. That's a big win

Leading Edge looks to be the best NJ team. Most MD and NY teams don't come within 4 goals of Hawks.

It was a 4 goals Hawks win but if their goalie doesn't play lights out, it would have been a 4 goal win for Leading Edge.

Leading Edge is a good program. Wish they were further south so I could have my son tryout - just cant make is that far up into NJ.

1. Leading Edge
2. BBL
3. Tri-state

Never see the others at the top tournaments so its hard to assess how good they may be.

How was BBL able to tie the Annapolis Hawks? Guest players?

BBL goes to top of the NJ rankings.

First year program, O2 Lacrosse 2022's just won the NXT Meltdown..running the table going undefeated...watch out for this program with boys coming from bergen, rockland, westchester and Orangecounty! Pretty impressive if you ask me!

In the B bracket slow down sparky....

Tough losses to Laxachewsettes, South Shore and Igloo at Crab Feast. Still a very good team.

Correct on both igloo and laxachusetts but bbl beat south shore.

BBL beat SouthShore and Patriot is better than most of those teams as is SouthShore. BBL/Leading Edge lead the group followed by TriState and SouthShore and Patriot. The rest are not even close.

Only lost to igloo and laxachusetts

Don't mean to go off topic as thread is for 'top' teams but just thought i would share some info the Force Lacrosse Club my son has played with for the past two summers. Whether Force is a fit really depends upon your son and his objectives. We were looking for a club with solid coaching, limited travel and a lower price point than we had paid at other 'elite' clubs. The club practices start when the HS season ends and are held twice a week at the FDU turf in Madison. The tryouts were rescheduled due to weather and will be held Sept 16 at FDU. Very good cost/value ratio.

Mad Dog '22 picked up a number of good players. With the new adds and cutting their bottom 5, they should be a very good team this summer.

How did Leading Edge 2022 do in Philly this weekend?
