Just because they are irrelevant does not mean they should be subjected to dirty play, no matter where you are from or what club you play for. At some point in your rooting career you too will become irrelevant as will your son at some level. Stay humble.

Is TB Roberts a 2021 team ? If so , why are they playing in the 2022 division at Lax Clash ?

Oh how the mighty have fallen. Outlaws once were a top 10 Long Island team now deemed irrelevant. GO REBELS!

Delusional?

No.......victims of a true scam to get as many players to play for Express at this age level after winning the world series. It is now clearly evident, that there was ZERO attempt to create a real competitive 2nd team. They spread the talent over the teams, used deceptive team names and just told the parents what they wanted to hear. Almost all of the promises made; from coaches to "hybrid teams" to "play days" instead of real tourneys, have been broken. They just do not care about any player other than the top 1/2 the players on the AA.

Extremely disappointing from a man with a great reputation.

Grass is not greener on the other side of the fence parents. You have been warned.

Funny ! I would have thought it would be a much closer game, 12-3 Smash just shows the difference between AA and A lacrosse.

Come on stop with express. They beat hawks. That’s it. You have them at 2. BBL beat them 3 times all ready this year. Express is not in the top 5. But here come the excuses......

Not top 10? Not an Outlaw fan by any means, but not a top 10 Long Island Club? Thats just a foolish remark.

LI north is really a joke. 27 kids with one coach, a dad had to help out in the fall. We were told the "B" team would beat most "A" teams, that didn't happen lost every game but one.

United is a much improved team. The new Smash team is just on a different level. Improved at every aspect of the game and when JR Plays by far the #1 team in the Country.

Check the roster after tryouts, the select team will be the Rebels team!

Express just won one of the 2 best tournaments so far this year and went 7-0. What did BBL Win? Best tournament coming up this weekend, Crabfest - but no SMASH or Express. Who wins?

Yes, always fun to watch these 2 teams. Always very competitive , well coached teams. Express looked like the more fresh team and made less mistakes. Look forward to seeing the next match up

DC Express beat BBL twice in 2 days and Hawks--that team is on the rise.

Very good team

All good on the Schwalje team. Great coaching, small roster, and the team doesn't get "smoked" as they have decent players.

You must not be a Schwaljie parent, all they do is complain about the coaching....where is Schwalje? They can beat a decent team either. Small roster because Chan had to give them original Chuck players to actually make a team! Go O'Rielly!

False. Couldn't be happier with the team and looking forward to the next 3 years as the team adds a few pieces and as the boys go through HS.

The only team they keep together is the AA, new teams, new coaches.....glad your happy!

What do you mean 9D1 United is improved? They lost 12-3 to 9D1 Smash, so what were they like before? Smash had a tough schedule. United had an easy schedule at Laxfest bc it was a 91 tournament, so they rolled over some easy teams that should never have been in AA (Ducks, Millon Force, Mich team). United's 2 goalies against 9D1 Smash were good bc they saved so many more goals. 9D1 United was in it for the first 3 min. After the first 3 minutes, Smash dominated that game. It was not even close.

9D1 United is a solid B team with a ton of kids. They had a sideline bigger than Chan's AA team. Why would anyone pay to be on such a big B team? The coach was yelling at his own kids and parents after games on the sideline.

What are the best 5 "B" teams on Long Island? Forget that they should AA or A or whatever.....who are the best 5 2nd teams on LI? I would think United and Igloo are up there....

Igloo
Schwalje
United
O'Reilly

1st teams that are on the same level are True Blue, Hitmen, Empire A and Force

If your son is not playing on one of the elite teams, these are the teams to play for imho

Express 6. True Michigan 3

Express 5. Team tiger 5

Express 5. Express north 6

Express 8. Icon 2.


Smoked??.. lost 1 game by 1 point. People are nuts

Who is the 2022 LI express team playing at crab feast? I thought all four of their teams were playing at tri star?

Igloo missed the playoffs at crabfeast.

What happened today at TriStar with T9-1MD and Smash? Huge brawl. What started it. 9-1MD coach banned from tournament? Refs wanted to fight T9-1MD coach according to his twitter.

Laxachewsitts beat them bad, 10-4.

Richmond Hawks, Annapolis Hawks, Resolute, Crabs, MDRoughriders, Stickstar Dallas, Laxachewsettes and FCA advancing.

Most surprising is that Madlax went 0-3.

Least surprising is Crabs had an easy Pool.

I hope JR wasn’t involved. He could get in trouble for fighting with minors since he’s an adult. 😂. Holdbacks baby! Wild Wild West!

There is a video... someone has to post it...

All MD teams in semis of Crabfeast. Too bad NY teams not playing there. Would be good to see the match ups

Mark millon running in the field calling smash defenders &$*#% person bags after his son started a fight and benches cleared

Just watched smash and 91MD. Jr is the entire smash team. 91 Md faceguarded him and when he got the ball sent a double forcing the other players to step up and the other smash players could do nothing. Smash is the same team it was last year except they added the best player in the grade. 91MD is a solid team and played wonderful but my feeling is that all these teams are the same just depends on the day of the week. When I say all these teams I’m talking the top ones because my sons team unfortunately was done early

Yup, the other attack should have a had a field day. Chan vs 91MD in the finals. Smash and Primetime in the consolation game. No more single tier teams exist anymore. They are all elite teams and just enjoy watching it.

Express wins the ship! 9-1 over "91"

His son did start the fight took a hard hit and then threw the first punch. Smash defender punched him back several time and he actually ran away. what a punk.

3 good wins today for MD Roughriders against Richmond Hawks, Annapolis Hawks, then FCA to win the Crabfeast Championship at 2022. They beat a strong Resolute OH team to win IMLCA Championship last weekend.

Has 91MD scored 10 points in ANY games this year? 1 goal? Who coaches that offense?

I guess smash is overrated. First real tournament of the year for them and can’t even make it to championship? Typical hype for this team. Keep bringing more players from around the country though. Maybe one day you’ll be as good as express. This team in for a rude awakening at Millon in a few weeks if it can’t handle this tournament. Hear lots of unhappy parents and players on this team too. Coach overbearing and can’t do anything without a certain players “permission”. Kiss the ring.

Millon crying about being called names on Twitter. He is a mini Trump...someone needs to keep stop his emo reactive tweeting.

the NLF tournament was a real tournament and a better field of teams than this weekend with the Crabs D.C. Express, primetime, LI express Sweetlax, etc. so them winning that tournament was good. Smash is a good team not a great team but has the best player by far. Because of that they will win some tournaments and lose some. This age is hit or miss case and point this weekend. Primetime beats express by a bunch and lose to them in semi finals. Smash beats up 91 MD thenloses to them in semi. That screams parity Our express team has been short handed all summer but has managed to win last two tournaments. I've been around this age group awhile that previous comment sound like the United Crew perhaps JM himself

Good to see some teams are actually getting better. That's the true mark of good coaching and really what all of this should be about. FCA and Roughriders are improving.
