91 MD lost to freedom in ot and was getting beat most of the game by a fair amount. MM keep adding players team is gonna backwards Reclass them like you did with the only player you promote in your club your son and I quote “he would not of been a top 10 attack in 2022 but is top in 2023. Mark you are Wrong and you adding your sons friend onto the team pushed one of your loyal players aside and that is a shame Our team is regressing but show us your son shooting on an empty net

Sadly the son needed 10 stiches to his jaw after the Freedom game. No call on the play. Rough game.

Does anyone think that a leopard changes his spots? Why would you think MM would, It is so over the top his promoting. You would think a little humility or promotion of other players might be in order if you are the director of entire club.

Gotta give him credit too. All the promoting , running entire offense thru him, and holding him back worked. He is starting for a MIAA team in his first year.

A middle-of the pack (6-4, back into the playoffs and lose in the first round)) MIAA team but yeah, McD (or whatever it will be called when we next play lacrosse) IS an actual MIAA team.

All the great players on that team, you’d think the guy wouldn’t be so self-absorbed to continue to promote these play days, sorry Millon Events, with pics of his 2023 kid.

I heard 2 players are leaving for Hawks.

He was not going to start playing mop up Kids gonna be good but was not going to play. Very suprised 91 lost to freedom Seems something is off there playing a few close ones yesterday vs lower competition after losing to the crabs. Him adding players isn’t surprising at all that move seems to of disrupted the team even more

Who did they add now?

Heard there were a lot questionable picks to UA in DC. Some of the kids that made it easily last year and performed well at the event (even the MVP), did not make it. Most are going up to Baltimore to try out again.

If they don't make Baltimore - is there somewhere else they can try-out? Indiana? Utah?

Corrigan needs to limit the try-outs to high schools in states. Otherwise you get North Carolina kids making the Baltimore team and other BS like that.

UA is not a tryout for most players The tryouts are for a few spots. The rest are picked ahead of time no matter what UA/Corrigan says on their website. Most are from Coaches Club/HS or his buddies HS/Clubs or some connection. If you think they are tryouts , well you are kidding yourself.

The whole thing of go anywhere to tryout is wrong too. Why dont they limit it to HS's in the states from that region.

MM's "world famous" instuction for the players and parents he keeps around to fund the ringers he likes to fly in for big events is "trust the process". In reality, he has no "PROCESS". His "outstanding coaching ability" is a complete rumor he started. Thats why he can poach players and recruit top players from his camps to fly in and he still always loses the big games and a lot of the not so big games. Bringing the biggest, fastest, strongest players from around the country to your team, or poaching them from other teams with big false promises and social media hype is not a sign of good coaching. Its just marketing. If you want outstanding coaching, find a successful club team who refuses to do that stuff and who makes competitive teams out of all local players or players who have been on the same team for years. They are out there, but you wont see them bragging about every move they make on Instagram.

On top of that, MM is a dispicable human. He berates and demoralizes his players, speaks ill of parents, refs or anyone that doesnt kiss his #9. I have literally watched him reduce 6th graders to absolute tears as he "coaches them up". He is a complete donk on the sidelines, but he has caught on to people looking for it, so he has become really good at covering his face with his papers or clipboard when he angrily tells little Jimmy that he stinks. Yet his loyal parents keep paying him to act and coach that way because he's "MM". It will never change as long as people pay him to "coach" like that.

A lot of questionable picks at UA. Really? Last year’s Baltimore command team was loaded with 22 Spalding/Hawks - oh that’s right the Spalding coach was coaching. They lost. How much will daddy Lids pay to make sure his kid makes the roster?

The big reason most of last year's 2022s didnt make it is now they are competing against 2021s. I would guess most of the 21s who made the DC team this year didn't last year.

Same nonsense was said last year about how DC picked their team but one won it all and the other played in the Championship. Sour grapes by those that didn’t make it. The team will make a run again this year.

None of you could be analysts because let's be honest, you're lazy. Any elementary kid can pull the historical regional UA rosters and study how many rising 9th graders made the Command Teams and how many rising 11th graders made the Highlight Teams. If you're talking DC and Baltimore, it varies from year to year based on the relative strength of the respective classes but on average its only a handful. In some of the weaker regions you will see more younger players as these parts of the country lack depth.

The Baltimore and DC teams have both had numerous rising 11th graders on their rosters. Those same kids also happen to be playing/will be playing at top ten programs.

Thanks Sherlock!!!!

Took you that long to respond, Watson.

Some people have lives outside of youth lacrosse. Some don't.

Others can't generate a synapse or remove themselves from the LaZ Boy Recliner. Lowest Common Denominator runs amok in youth lacrosse.

HS forum. Move along to the youth page.

Where are the DC UA rosters posted?

A prima facia case: can't generate a synapse or remove themselves from the LaZ Boy Recliner. Really?

Corrigan Sports, Under Armour All American Lacrosse Senior Game, Inside Lacrosse

I find it shameful that you all keep posting about all the underclass games and tournaments and the teams, and leaving the info on the websites acting like the Senior Game is still going on. NOT

It has been announced on the Under Armour website saying since June 1st that the UA Senior Game is cancelled. So let all the Seniors know that it's cancelled and not to get their hopes up. You have waited over a month and a half. The 2020's missed their season and you don't even show them some love, I guess since they cant make you anymore money off them you just don't care. So get your money from the thousand of kids that are coming to the underclass tournament.

Or they are to chicken to announce it, stop thinking about how to do it and just do it.

JUNE 1st! Grow a set and announce it!


THIS IS SHAMEFUL

CALM DOWN!! Lol

What's going on with the 2022 Crabs? Got skunked and went 0-2 at the NLF opening tournament today? Injuries, conflicts, Just curious? Is King Crab apoplectic?

Poor coaching and selfish play.

Was 2022 crabs ever good? 2023 different story.

Where were the Hawks guest players at NLF??? Or do they only have guest players for games live on main stream social media?????
Parents must love that.

Guest Players?

Part of team now, Left their team from last year. Sorry you cant keep up. New sheriff in town,,,They are called the Hawks !

How was Baltimore UA tryouts? Callback game?

New sheriff is DCE sorry hawks

Why should I?

Chances of Daddy Lids kid making UA without the old man fixing it for him? Zero

Only saw the underclass tryouts....

Prelim games were a lot of ugly hero ball. Callback game was much better.

If they were FCA and/or CHC and could cradle they made the call back.

Did you watch him play in Callback game? Might want to check it out. It’s on YouTube.

Very True. Hawks 2022 refused to play NAL also because the competition was too tough.

Did all of the DC kids who missed the cut there have better luck at the Baltimore tryouts?

Injuries took out their two best guest players this year and one of their recent "recruits" from last year.
