MIAA was in a down year. Talent this year was very mediocre , Frankly, the talent pool is mediocre in entire MIAA compared to rest of country with explosion of lacrosse in many states. Please, I know, overall it is a great conference and many players that have stick skills off the charts. And yes , they will have a handful of players that play D1, but the good ole days are gone with many players making an impact in D1. Many will be on D1 teams and ride the bench for 4 years, while the true athletics pass them buy from other areas.
