SJS is competitive, they are at the southern tip of NJ and pull kids from Moorestown. T3 has programs through out the state, I would put their south team in top 5 below BBL.

What about SJ Shamrocks, not select? They have both a boys and girls program. Where would you rank them for each of their programs?

I think the opposite is true Trying to make a generalized statement about NJ boys/girls clubs is ridiculous. STEPS definitely has the reputation on the girls side, but in no way does STEPS, Shamrocks, Patriot, etc. carry much weight on the boys side. When you look at who is playing in the upper tier boys national tournaments with success, you are mostly down to BBL, Leading Edge and Tri-State and perhaps Blue Star. Yes, there are other very good programs like Tribal, Patriot, Riot, NJLC etc., but they do not have the same level of prominence.

I agree that BBL is at the top of the food chain for the boys side followed by Patriot. Riot, NJLC, BlueStar, SJ Shamrocks and Tri-State all have solid programs but I just think BBL and Patriot are the perennial power boys programs.

Their '23 went 0-3 at Trilogy Veterans Day Classic and none of their other teams where in the finals and that was a bad event. The top programs do not even waste their time at that event. Leading Edge Elite is running the best boys program for 8th - High School today. Hands down, they would beat BBL at every level.

Agreed, traditionally LE has been the most consistent top to bottom with their high school teams (8th grade is always a toss-up because that team will change come high school), BBL and Tri-State will put together some good teams, but will have gaps...the Patriot thing makes absolutely no sense, just compare the schedules, LE is playing NLF, and you will always see BBL and Tri-State at the national tournaments like Naptown and Adrenaline, they may not win, but they have skin in the game.

That doesn't mean they are terrible, but they are not top caliber. Also, they are not in the NLF (National Lacrosse Federation).

Can't really comment on Lax Fed because I haven't really heard of the majority of the teams

Can't really comment on Lax Fed because I haven't really heard of the majority of the teams All B&C teams. Smart to have another group like this but the talent is what it is. If you have a son who is more D2 and D3 it is a smart way to go. They will get better recruiting and better over all travel lacrosse experience at a Laxfed event on a comparable team. A better option for kids that play on the bench of an NLF club.

You apparently didn't watch LE lose 9-1 to Annapolis Hawks last week and then watch that Hawks team trail BBL most of the came before winning at the last minute 8-7.
