Can someone film the Hawks vs Crabs game tomorrow and post it to YouTube?

No.

You speak for everyone donkey?

Hope you didn't bet the ranch on it!

It wasn’t even a game

?

Black Lightning and face guarding didn’t work Coach

The Crabs coaches post game speech was classic. They aren’t better than you we just played from behind

No upset LOL. Crabs can sit back down.

Hawks 13 - 8 Crabs. Was a good game. Hawks played 4 good quarters, Crabs played 2 good quarters. All boys gave it all that they had and left it all on the field.

Don’t worry we’ll see at the WSYL!!! Oh wait hold up

Hawks did a total beat down of Crabs on all facets of the game...

Did Team 91 lose some of their better players or something? swirling the hole.

As expected.

Crabs need more depth. They rely too much on one player, and while he's an excellent player, he can only do so much. Hope he got a good night sleep

how does HOCO playoffs work? is it top 6 teams advance?

I brought my son and his teammate to the field early yesterday so they could watch the Crabs - Hawks game. I fully agree on Crabs lack of depth comment. Their face off middie is a great player but lost effectiveness as the game, heat and sprints up and down the field took there toll (as it would on any person).

In contrast Crabs were committed to shutting down the Hawks #22. Going so far as to face guarding him for nearly the entire game, resulting in many 5 versus 5 situations. While they held # 22 to maybe 1 or 2 goals, the rest of the Hawks picked the Crabs apart with what seemed like 8 or 9 guys scoring goals. Definitely a contrast between a team with one great player and limited depth and another team with deep depth.

Week 7 Early Predictions -
Hawks 15 Madlax 4
FCA 5 NL 3
VLC 5 Looneys 4
BLC 10 Team 91 6
**GOTW**
TRUE 9 CRABS 8

Would make sense considering that schedules were not equal and 4th and 5th team could end up with same record.

You mean like playing the 26's who stood on the sideline while the 25's played?

All 3-4 26s?

TOP 4 ON SATURDAY - WINNERS PLAY SUNDAY
1V4
2V3

First time ever looking at the Maryland section, always this mean?

Did the Crabs bring in Jimmy Patsos. Reminds me of when Loyola double teamed Steph Curry the entire game. He did not score, but they lost by 30! Must be a Baltimore thing.

That’s when tiebreakers play a role.

Did he dad?

Sure it is.

playoffs are set with top 4 teams - Hawks, Crabs, True and Madlax all in. Only issue is seeding. Hawks win vs Madlax then #1 seed. If Madlax wins then possibly 3 way tie with the winner of Crabs vs True.

only top 4 teams get in??

Top 4 playing this weekend for playoff preview.

True and Hawks in Finals, Hawks win.

Someone said 4v5 as a play in game but not positive. If that's the case, Madlax would be 5 and play one of the 2 defeated from this weekend.

Correct me if i am wrong, but I thought top 6 got in, with #1 and #2 with first round byes???

rest of the teams preparing for summer tournaments after this weekend. It was mistake to move so many teams into the elite bracket. Keep it at 8 so everyone plays each other. HOCO should do a relegation weekend for bottom 4 to play each other to determine which two teams drop a division next spring. Gives other teams something to play for.

Agreed. If relegation was in effect then FCA and NL would be looking at going to AAA. The most likely outcome would be that they go 1-2 in AAA and come back after a year. Wash, rinse, repeat.

Sorry 91 dad. Your little guy has to sit out next week.

top 5

Nobody really knows, it could be top 5, top 4, top 6. Need to wait for official announcement.
