Calvert Hall and Loyola numbers are crazy. You better make a good impression as a freshman, or have a transfer plan in place.

My kids (boy and girl) both go to SMA and have since kindergarten. I can say that SMA has a deep lax culture from an early age, it doesn’t start in HS. In 4th/5th grade there were at least 10 kids from his hawks team at SMA and a bunch from the black team and other clubs.

The girls are much the same, a few M&D, Heros and SW but a ton from MD United, Integrity, CC lax etc.

Basically the population from early on is super lax centric. Lots of parents who played at SMA and elsewhere etc.

I would guess SMA actually loses lax kids between 8th and 9th. Where do the kids at Spaulding etc come from?
