National teams are rarely better than the local club teams. It is not like they have an open tryout with hundred's of players trying out and picked the top players in the nation. It is more like they could not get all the parents of a local club to pay for a winter trip to FL so they combine a team with the parents with the most frequent flyer miles available but these kids may not have ever played together. Beating a "national" team does not mean much.

Maybe... but dominating Stealth and the GA Tigers does. Those are both top level teams!

No they aren't. Was there and they both would get worked in Elite HoCO division...

If you think that they are good wins then just be happy with it...no need to come on the board and crow about it, you know what the reaction is going to be

National Teams are all joke.... Complete Money Grab, way to field a team when you want to make $ and don't have enough kids.... Put any National Team in the HOCO Elite Division and they will get destroyed.

HoCo is right around the corner. Keep telling your boys to focus on development. It’s going to be a great season! It’s the true measuring stick as to how good your team is or is not.

Maybe it’s because they are that elite. Don’t call us, we’ll call you.

Why is True Annapolis 2024 playing in the single A bracket at Hogan this spring? I thought it was a AA program according to the thread.

2026 Spring Thaw first game of True vs Hawks should be a good snap shot of upcoming Hoco season. Will the Hawks basically in tact roster pick up from where they left off last summer? Will the fine compliment of strong players that True picked up in the summer make their first statement mand defeat last year’s Hoco Champ? Win or loose will be the final line but it will be interesting to see how these two strong programs stack up against each other in competition.

Strong players??? Hawks win easily. Elite team vs AAA team. End of story.

0-9 Diamondbacks plus 3 former Hawks is not what you call strong
Lets remind those Diamondback parents and coaches that Hawks defensemen were playing attack and scoring with long poles

The 2026 Hawks are the Cobra Kai Dojo from the original “Karate Kid” movie.

Can anyone confirm the True Annapolis teams will be their "A" teams and the True shore teams (former USS) will be the "B" teams? I heard this from a notoriously unreliable source.

If true, why Annapolis? I don't understand the True philosophy, there aren't enough elite kids to have 4-5 teams from one club in MD.

Even without the cynical take re: $$$ (totally valid), it doesn't make sense from a lacrosse standpoint.

None of it makes sense. But hey, at least their kids can prance around in "True National Prospect" pinnies even if they can't make the only A team in Annapolis.

Outside of the USS teams I haven't seen any of the True teams that are above A play in tournament in MD. for better or worse they seem to be filling a hole in the South and East MD area of full year select teams.

I for one, feel bad for the families who bought into the True Annapolis debacle. Some folks will believe anything you tell them I guess.

Heck, True Annapolis withdrew from Summer Exposure AA for worry of being totally embarrassed and were replaced by True’s premiere club out of Illinois. The result? Illinois True went 1 and 3. Had Annapolis not withdrawn would they have been able to keep their losses under 5 or 10 points per game based upon the performance of the team they shipped in from the mid-west?

True Annapolis was a short sighted venture and will not last. True DC would have been much smarter to compliment True Balto and True Eastern Shore (in their defense DC is still an expansion plan, but should have focused on that). They are not going to poach any of the legit Hawks players which was their idea. They will only get kids cut from Hawks or some backups looking for larger roles. Really they should just make one True MD and then focus on their next venture...Philly area where talent is so spread out and they could consolidate and actually rule an area other than Illinois.

Fair! The one thing you can't find on their site is what the cost will be. Hawks, 91,... has that listed very easily (not a hawks parent btw).
