Anonymous Unregistered A	Originally Posted by Anonymous Predict Dreadful Dalton's year 1 record. I think .500 overall, maybe worse than last year in league play. Kind of doubt it - not an easy pre-league schedule, they won't hit .500 there In the league, I'd break them down into wins, maybes, and obvious Ls Wins - JC, Severn Close games - MSJ, StP, Loyola, maybe Gilman Not even close Ls - everybody else I would say the ceiling for StM is probably 8 wins total; the floor is probably 4-5 wins.

Takes some big !@#s to do it so give all goalies a pass. If you don't agree let me kick you in the, get back up and ask for it again, then we will listen to you complain.

Loyola or Homewood are the best two options followed by UMBC and Towson. With Navy a distant 5th. Don’t even need to bring up the geography of where most of the schools are - leaving that aside it’s just too big of a stadium.

Anonymous Unregistered A	Originally Posted by Anonymous Originally Posted by Anonymous TOXIC culture at Calvert Hall is permeating through the athletic department and it starts with the leadership at this school. Athletic Director and coaching staffs have created a culture of entitlement with zero accountability. The stories pouring out about the lacrosse team (are you kidding me bringing the senior goalie back) and bullying of athletes from other sports by the football team is running rampant. Calvert Hall has lost its way and it’s win at all costs; the problem is there has been very little winning lately! Changes are needed across the board but unfortunately will never happen with Mulford/Kelly running the show for the entire athletic department. Money Talks Morality Walks This is so true. In terms of the fall, soccer was a mess due to fresh lax players being guaranteed spots (on var and JV) and have heard horror stories about the freshman JV lax dads on soccer sidelines. Var football was not much better. Water polo was good but nobody cares. None of this bodes well for lacrosse season. Mulford needs to get a handle on whats going on but he won't/can't due to Kelly influence. The whole senior goalie thing speaks for itself and paints the picture perfectly of whats going on there (unfortunately). The stereotypical athlete bs culture started bleeding over into the rest of the school. We cleaned house with football because they couldn't win the big game. It's playing out similarly with lacrosse since covid. The stories are out there, and posted on here, they don't need to be rehashed.

Only reason that its at Navy is because Mr MDLax from Spalding is still footing the bill

I'm sorry that your donation for better bleachers was misappropriated, and instead used to fund the girls flag football team, but that's between you and "headmaster."

Anonymous Unregistered A	Spalding parent here. I just wanted to bring to light the huge mess that happened last Friday night in the Loyola vs Spalding sixes game. There were certain points at that game where I felt it was necessary to pull my son away from the game. Loyola players were hooting and hollering the whole game. Not only what they were saying offended my son, but it also offended me aswell. For some odd reason Loyola didn’t have a coach on their sidelines, so that pretty much gave those punks free range to say whatever they want. As a concerned parent I hope that these boys will be properly disciplined for their actions.

Anonymous Unregistered A	What did they say? “Hooting and Hollering” what does that mean jawing back and forth is part of the game. However, going after family and using racial slurs is unacceptable. I pulled and benched a kid #1 player for using racial slurs towards another player. Needless to say, never did it again and his parents were embarrassed because of how he represented his last name. Out of the thousand of players I coached, that one player and the incident is always the first thing brought up by other players. What do you want to be remembered by?

If your son is playing high school ball, and you're walking over to the coach's sideline to "pull your son from the game" then don't worry, your son already is already ashamed of you, and college coaches will see you coming a mile away. I'd be interested to compare side by side "Loyola's Rambunctious Hooting and Hollering" vs. what happens in the Spalding bathrooms on an average day.

Loyola may not be known for many things, but what you're describing is fairly common with its teams
