News for the 2015 age group from Mid-Atlantic Tournament : Top Guns 2015 Purple defeats Diamonds 2015, 9-4, in opening game. Top Guns 2015 Black win handily, 11-1, over Jets Black 2015 in their first game.
It is a shame that YJs, Liberty, Express and Team 91 were all not at the tournament. I would like to have seen them play against each other.
I NEVER want to see Long Island teams playing each other after a 5 hour drive onth NJ Turnpike. Even in the bracket rounds I'd rather go home early and meet up somewhere later. What would be nice is to see all of them playing on LI.
Agreed. Nothing pisses off the parents more than driving through traffic, paying tolls and travel expenses, and then finding out you're playing teams from LI.
Disagree. Where else are the long island teams suppossed to play each other? There really are no tournaments to speak of on long island, so if it were not for these out of state, or at least off of long island tournaments, LI teams would never get to play one another. I think it's nice that most tournaments try to limit playing next door teams in the pool play. LI geographically just can't handle the space needed for these moster tournament, feilds, parking, hotels etc.... And if you want to try to compare the elite showcase to one of the big tournaments, don't waste your time. Plus the fact that none of the long island teams want to further fund the yj organization.
