Severn will be vying for a spot in the top 6 and will compete with all teams including SM. SP is out as are Gilman, MSJ and JC. LB lost a lot on offense and in the cage and clearly based on the forum posters have serious culture and coaching issues. CHC, BL and MCD just re-load and will join a senior driven team at Spalding in the semis. Its a toss up as to who wins: it will come down to 1) coaching (who is prepared for anything and everything another team will throw at you the second time around, 2) goal tending: whose hot or not, and 3) face offs: possession is 9/10s of the matter. Last year was the same way. The lowest seeded team won the championship. Its about peaking at the right time especially as there is no home field advantage in the semis.
Severn has some younger talent for sure. Could push for top 6-7 Depends how their depth works out. Same for JC. They are starting to get kids from top clubs. I like the direction of MSJ under the new coach. Just not sure if that school is an easy sell. There are some good public programs on that side of town.
