Unfortunately it appears youth lacrosse is over prematurely for this class. A best case 8 week hiatus makes summer tournaments still a possibility, but even that seems unlikely with county run facilities likely staying closed into the summer.
More realistic goal may be that things get back to normal by the time these boys head to high school in the fall.
Any of the HS's making more inroads with the top players in this class than others?
I think you will see many 2023's re-class to 2024's. The loss of a season and adding and extra year for current college players creates a log jam for the '23 recruiting class. They lost a HS season. Of course this will be at private schools. Not an issue with public schools kids.
The reclass/holdback thing is going strong this year. As usual, the 2024 8th to 9th grade reclass is the largest. But the 2023 who missed out on 9th grade lacrosse will not be far behind..This year many players 2021 , 22, are on their way to be heldback if they can . 2020 are PGing if they can. Multiple reasons...Crazy times.
Of course many have already done the reclass/prefirst thing. I actually heard one holdback parent saying it isnt fair what college is doing for players with an extra year, LOL
