despite the disdain, those girls get recruited all the time. I have shared the sidelines with some of the biggest stunad parents (YJ and TG included, not to mention many others in and out of NY) and have seen their kids get recruited to top D1 schools despite them. In fact, let's face it, if the kid is flashy and scoring goals she'll get noticed, and as much as the college coaches preach teamwork, and parents sideline behavior, and social media smarts talent trumps it all. FTR, i'm not a bitter parent, my daughter doesn't steal the show on the field, and as parents don't say much during or after games, but she did commit to a top 20 program on her own merit. Furthermore, I don't think it's beneficial for talented players to be stuck on Middle School teams with kids that can't catch, but if it has to happen because the HS is too deep to take more girls then stink it up. Part of the process
