There’s a 14 year old playing for Madlax 2028?

No, there isn't.

He was 14 this winter when he played for ML in their box tournament. Or at least, he was asked all through the day how old he was, and told everybody he was 14. Not sure if he is on the spring roster though, as we haven't played ML yet.

Our sons have played a variety of the kids from Richmond and Tidewater, and honestly they need 1 or 2 years of athletic holdback to compete at a high level. The overall lax product coming out of VA (south of Fairfax) is not amazing, to put it kindly. Not justifying it, just stating the facts.
Just flat out wrong. He is 13 though— as of December. Prob one of the oldest kids in 2028, but single holdback. Anyone born after Sept 1 2008 is single holdback. Not outlandish.

Would love to see all of the DOB’s posted for each team, with no names attached. Just DOB’s….

The ML kid isn't even the tallest kid at 2028 so size is not the real issue. He is seriously skilled with both hands with a lefty shot that has to be in the 80 mph range and surprisingly fast for a big kid - guessing he's north of 150lb. Rumor is that he had 3 or 4 while playing up one game at that box tourney. If he leaves ML for Hawks let's all hope it's the Richmond one and not the Annapolis one.
