Right now, 91 is a great way to get your kid to quit lacrosse.

Not gonna happen. A key part of Millon's model is that "every one of our teams plays at the highest bracket available." Yes they may only score 5 goals per calendar year and win 0 games, but they play elite competition and by the way have you seen our 2023 and 2025 teams.

This is important because it keeps the engine running (and funds coming in) until HS when all these kids will be gone, and Millon will fill the gaps with local and out of state private school kids who can play at a high level. The sales pitch after a 9th grade full of new kids, and good wins, will be "see, you parents of 2038 grads, we've developed these 2029 kids since 3rd grade."
91 only wants what is best for players, They play elite to get better. Proof is in our teams, look at how they play

Yeah Mark, getting whooped by 12 points every week really helps with offensive IQ and stick skills.

Aside from the 2023 and 2025 rosters, the 91 kids "getting better" on the youth teams are cut after 8th grade...I'm sorry..."given their realistic options for next season." The 2029 team has had something like 160% turnover in the past 24 months. How are you developing those players, exactly?

Were the KP kids advised that the roster will be 32 kid's by June, and 2/3 of the KP kids won't be invited back next July? Or did they buy the development sales pitch.
