Literally a player that was a top 10 lax and top 10 fh player that just committed to do both at BC. JD at UNC was seconds away from winning a national title in both sports in a calendar year. And she started for both teams.
As a coach, do I like when some of my best players miss some fall tournaments for another club sport? Nope. Do I understand? Absolutely. Heck. I did it myself. I want well-rounded kids to play for me. They are also far less likely to burn out.
You understand it, as long as that kid is a difference maker and helps you win. Will you play the kid that never misses a practice or game over her? Yeah, didn't think so.
Does Lax Fall Ball in college have any bearing on standings or rankings? No, its a scrimmage. Same for soccer in spring for college. You're analogy is a poor one.
