Great game!




Responses:

1 - Why does everyone defend him - because he is going to a top D1 school? Because he is the chosen one? He has been mediocre at best this season. If you think he had a good game the other day you don't know lacrosse. Too many stick side goals - and another 20 yarder. There were 5 BAD goals.

2 - Kid was the best HS player I've seen - shoots just as hard lefty as righty, uses his body really well, a complete player. But I guess the goalie is not responsible for his goals - doesn't have to make saves against him.

3 - Again, nothing on the offense happens without the senior attackman - everything goes thru him. Chaminade scored 4 goals in a row in the first quarter - he didn't have any. But who did they lock off? Him. On 90% of all HS teams (and probably college) the lefty attackman is in the top 3 in scoring. Because they are the finishers - they should score a lot. Easy on the junior stuff (2 midfielders are are really good - the other juniors should not be on the field).

Agreed - great game - but stop with all the nonsense...


Agreed Great game.
I'm not criticizing any player. I just think the Junior Goalie is better.

Please look at the box score for the flyers from the past 2 games.... St.I and Yorktown. It does not look like nonsense.

I'm saying the seniors are good but the juniors have put their stamp on this team as well.

I think St. I did a good job of taking the senior attack out of the game but that creates opportunity for others to step up.
Flyer D could have done a better job of taking the St. I goal scorer out of the game (don't you think?) Where else could some adjustments have been made?
