They have 5 not 6 ..get your facts straight

Facts are in short supply this time of year, but rumors abound. Here is a summary of the rumors I have read on this Board about the local DC teams. If anyone knows facts, the BOTC world would be interested to hear.

DCE - Retaining the whole BLC roster and picking up 6-8 players from Madlax.
MadLax - Retaining their whole roster, having guest coaches from every HS in town, and picking up the former True Chesapeake players.
Next Level - retaining their whole roster, but had 90 players at tryouts, including players from BLC, MadLax, and True
True Chesapeake - folding their tent.

Point of clarification - "whole roster" refers to the top 13-15 players - steady rotation at the bottom 1/3 among all these teams is to be expected.

anyone who can confirm specifics, please do!
Madlax losing half by of its team. Small to begin with, 18-20 players on the roster. At least 7-8 gone, could be more. So no, Madlax is not retaining their whole roster, or anything remotely close to it.

NL is keeping most of their roster, but some of their kids are trying out at DCE. Doubt they’ll leave NL. Loyal group.

DCE didn’t have anything to lose, they’re a brand new team as a pp pointed out. I’m told they’re bringing in about 10 of the BLC kids, they’ll get a bunch of the Madlax kids (hearing its 6-7, with a few other ML kids deciding between there and NL), and some randoms.

Once this settles out, it should be pretty competitive between these 3 teams in the spring.

If MadLax is losing that many players, how will they remain competitive with the other two?

Director will bring in several new local players like he always does supplemented by out of area players when needed. Best players are staying, fringe are only ones leaving. Dust hasnt settled yet.[/quote

Ok. Sure. You are misinformed.

so who are the 7-8 MadLax players who I keep hearing are moving to DCE? are they impact players or not? I'm willing to be the goalie is moving, which is basically a 1 for 1 trade with the combative Dad goalie, so that is a wash. The other impact players would be the starting poles, the double holdback who scores a lot, and the middie who faces off and also does his share of the scoring. are those players leaving? or is it players who are easily replacable.
Well, you’re really on to something… and a few more.
