Well said. For some of the BLC kids the move has been great, and for some it has not. They same can be said about the legacy MadLax kids, good for some, but not all. For the boys that got a raw deal, their parents helped them find a different team that is a better fit. The Capital team as a whole is in a good place and will compete for #1 in HoCo Elite, and is top 3-5 nationally. The DMV team has been placed in a division where it will likely have a winning record. As usual the owner will not win any popularity contests but is making a ton of money. Welcome to travel lacrosse. If you don’t like how it works, stick to rec.
