Back of THE CAGE Forums MID-ATLANTIC LACROSSE MARYLAND MAIN FORUM Greater Howard Club Lacrosse Conference (HoCo)

They have been getting hounded with calls and emails. They have no valid reason to keep them closed, and they are adding to the problem by doing so. But they have the “we don’t care what the gov says” attitude, kind of like the teachers union.

ES and MS divisions have finished with HS have a few more weeks left. Good to get some lacrosse in this fall.

Looks like there were playoffs for ES & MS teams. Do you know if there will be playoffs for HS teams?

good question

Thank you! I usually come to BOTC for trash talk and entertainment but this is actually useful!

Sweet! 2 months to go!!

If this legit, 2021 is looking up!

Did Team MD merge with 3d MD?

I commend the HoCo managers for organizing a league even though play is currently shut down. They are showing the high schools how it should be done and are at least trying to earn their paycheck.

The HOCO league show be commended for Hall of Shame for lacrosse. They started a grade based league years ago that gave the club teams a reason to explode with holdbacks. Every league in Howard County at the time was based on age except the new formed HOCO lacrosse league based on grade, of course run by a guy whose son was a holdback in MIAA.

How's the wah burger and french cries taste buddy? Your son is on a bad team and that stinks for him, don't come here and take it out on HOCO

Truth hurts doesnt it Mr Howard County holdback apologist. Son needs to play down to compete? Bet he feels good knowing that

My kid plays up. But the holdbacks on his team dominate your son and his team and he benefits from it. The lax world needs ditch diggers to. Thanks for being a speed bump in the road. Tell your boy to dream big, he'll get their one day.

Hilarious, Plays up only in your delusional mind. Got to sting knowing your son cant compete against players his own age .
