NXT beat M&D by 5, MDU by 1 and tied Coppermine

Impulse was a decent turn out. No Heros or YJ but, In the top bracket;

NXT 2-0-1
Coppermine 2-0-1
MDU 0-2-1
MD Black 0-2-1

SW looked like they have improved a ton. They won which was probably the second best division. Beating M&D red and Legends.

SW 3-0
Legends 2-1
MDU West 1-2
M&D Red 0-3

It was a bad day for M&D. All around but, their Black team just isn’t deep enough to play with top teams in these showcases where teams tend to give everyone equal playing time. The fall off in talent is noticeable. I expect them to struggle this summer.

Why in middle school when not a single college scout is there would there be equal playing time? I get it in HS showcases but if you’re paying to be on M&D in middle school, wouldn’t you want to play for a team where work and talent is rewarded and you play to win? I’m almost positive no team is playing M&D with an equal playing time mentality. Makes it tough to win those games.

Imagine putting player development over winning a 6th grade lacrosse game where nothing but bragging rights is at stake, M&D really needs to get their priorities straight.
