BackOfTheCage Forums NORTHEAST LACROSSE BOTC MAIN FORUM Girls 2016 Fall 2013/Summer 2014

BOTC is opening our Fall 2013 through Summer 2014 thread covering the Girls 2016 (10th Grade) age group.

My daughter received an invite to 2014 GIRL's Maverick Showtime event. I realize that this will only be their second year, the boys event seems to be successful. Any thoughts on the girl's event? It's not cheap and I'm curious about the return on investment..

Awful event last year. However, now they have brought in one of the YJ directors to help run it. I'm sure YJ will now be pushing it.

have any invites been received for the super sophs showcase?

Refreshing our Girls 2016 discussion thread.

I know some Long Island girls this age have committed already any lists yet.

Congratulations to the following Class of 2016 girls from the Yellow Jackets organization that have verbally committed to the following institutions.

Charlotte Campbell (St Anthony's) UVA
Sam DeBellis (Cold Spring Harbor) Duke
Katie Hoeg (Mattituck) UNC
Kaelie Huff (ESM) USC
Kerrigan Miller (Bayport) USC

I know all these girls. They are not playin regularly until they are juniors. They great players but that the way it is at these schools. That is big adjustment. These girls never sat before. Good luck. Go yj.

Seriously , if you know all these girls you should go up to their parents and express your concern.

I know why would they all pick to go to top 30 ranked schools that all happen to have beautiful schools in great areas of the country. You sir are a [lacrosse] , just wish them well and give congrats.

I know all these girls too, I've watched my Top Gun daughters team play against them. They are great players. there is nothing else to add to the above post other congratulations and good luck at the next level.Well Done Girls

Cage any way to get a list of colleges that were in attendance last year at Maverick Showtime? Or even better a list of who will be there this year?

This was not an event on the BOTC calendar last year. You will need to contact the showcase directors directly.

Does your crystal ball have a way of predicting injuries? There is no way to tell how well a freshman will perform in the college game.Some will do better than expected and some will experience trouble adjusting to the size and speed of the college game.This all takes place without taking into consideration the unfortunate injuries that each team will have to deal with. Congratulations on your commitment I know you all worked very hard to be in this position.

Mount Sinai High School sophomore attack-midfield Caroline Hoeg has made a commitment to play at Johns Hopkins University.

Expect to see the top rising sophmores (2017) based on the Long Island chatter. If you were lucky enough to receive an invitation, jump on it. Remember, there are some events that Are in fact Invitation Only and have a cap on those lucky enough to get the nod. My son to this day says it was the best showcase he attended and with the people running the girls side this year there will no doubt be hundreds of recruiters. It is pricy, but then again if your daughter has an idea of where she wants to go, chances are the coach will be attending this showcase. If not she can let the coach know she will be attending. I am on my brothers ipad and cant get to my email but I think this is at the end of June. Heard it was an amazing experience last year from girls who have given verbals over the past few months.

You guys are talking about the Showtime event at Western Connecticut right? My daughter's going for the first time, and I saw someone earlier in the thread said it was awful last year. Wondering if anyone else has any input, or if that poster can provide details...

My daughter attended last year and had a fun time...that was it, very few college coaches were there, mostly from Connecticut. Very little instruction, coached by low rate college players, mostly games. You can imagine the little passing and a lot of 1v1. According to the invite she received this year there are some big LI girls lax names involved and that may boost it up. The boys side is amazing, my son attended a few years back, but according to last year the girls side doesn't compare. Not worth the money, in my humble opinion. Hope this helps.

Best at this Age Group ? 1st Tournament results

A Teams

Heroes tied YJ defo
Topguns crushed Heroes
Topguns crushed YJ defo
Topguns loses to MD United East
M&D Black not there

B teams

91 Allstars lost to 2 weak teams in a B bracket
91 Allstars beat YJ ceraso badly

MD United lost to Heros by 1 and beat TopGuns by 4. Didn't play YJ defo. I guess it shows that all of these teams can win or lose against each other on any given day. M and D would be in the mix.

wouldn't be so quick to label 91 all stars as a "B" team.
beat TG black and either tied or beat M&D black last year.

Your comment is so spot on.

I am amazed. It seems to me that as these kids mature the distance in skill level between them gets smaller and smaller.

It will be an interesting Summer.

We'll see how you do next weekend, you'll be lucky to win 1

wow tough sched .... skywalkers blue, YJ defo ... u gonna get blown out

wouldn't be so quick to label 91 all stars as a "B" team.
beat TG black and either tied or beat M&D black last year.

tg black out played them had around 50 shots , one of those days when even a blind mouse gets a piece of cheese..
and no the goalie didnt make that many saves, all shots were off goal.. to mas stole our sticks the night before and loosened the strings.

and M&D had half a team

Sorry but looking at last year schedule TG Never played a team 91 allstars

91 only lost one game this weekend and yes next weekend will be tough, but all kids will play equally, it is a showcase...object is recruiting, winning is the bonus...

you must not have much of a life if you checked back at tg's schedule from last year to say they never played 91 allstars. Very sad. 91 allstars was suffolk allstars for the last 5 years they teamed up with 91 to help further support admin and recruiting efforts. same team and coaches

Lets see what yj and topguns do tbis weekend.. oh yeah and the 91 allstars

YOU WERE SO EASY TO HOOK

M and D hammered Heros today. Top Guns v M and D tomorrow.

91 allstars got crushed both games yesterday against a teams... and will get crushed again today by yj.... i guess it is easy to say theh are a b team...

Top Guns lost to m&d today as well.

yes 7-6
