Carmel is overrated. They are an ok team and that is it. Above average Section 1 team. Everyone who rates them does so solely on the "everyone is coming back theory". Kids don't turn into Paul Rabil just because 12 months have passed. They will have a nice successful season, and because class A lacks depth, and North Rockland is down, they may be the third best team in A. But not on the same level as the top shelf teams. Greeley is probably at that level now, albeit at the bottom of it - unless proven otherwise.

McD lost because Episcopal is better…it’s really that simple.

No names were mentioned, but it was specified it was their starting goalie. There's only one person who fits that description, so if people know who you're talking about, that's why. As I'm sure PP was well aware would be the case.

Only if the league and/or the school decide it is needed. It took Gerstell going winless for two years before the league made them move down. It’s rare that they will move a team down but this was overdue. It seems they are more inclined to move a team up if they dominate the B division for a few years … see GCS and Mercy. But there is a huge difference between dominating B and being remotely competitive in A. SJCP was undefeated in B last year and gets smoked by the bottom A teams.

Great take but this has everything to do with his talent. If he was a great young man and teammate but a terrible player, exemptions would not be sought.

I think this is just the exact problem with club lacrosse in general. Its the wild west as it relates to rules in general and rules enforcement and consistency and often makes these events and youth lacrosse in general look silly compared to other sports that do a much better job overall. That's a comment not specific to this age group or this tournament, but an overall one. Anyone with boys that have already been through the process end to end would probably acknowledge this reality.

The one comment that bothers me is about the individual. Its nice for the kid to be able to play with his long time teammates and congrats to him for being a good player and person, but that should have no bearing on the decision and application of this long standing and very well known 100 mile rule for this event. These types of decisions regardless of justification just diminish credibility and that happens so often that we get to the point that rules appear meaningless sadly. well, rant over.

Good luck to all this summer and I hope everyone's kids have fun and get better. That's more important than the adult led rule breaking non-sense anyway.

And if they play like they did today - they’re all gonna be fat Ls. I didn’t see anything that shows that they are any better than last year. This is the same team with a tougher schedule they’d better improve quick if they want to hang with those teams.
The game was never in question..... Gave up to late goals to make it 7 for Carmel. All you heard was how gritty and tough Carmel is. Well, says something about Greeley then. Could be the best offense is section 1. Played all their guys too.

Ok Rebels parents and coaches, you qualified, you did not win the WS. Relax with the social media posts. It is about the kids, don't make it about you guys. Stop posting, you didn't even win the qualifier. Pathetic!!!!

They took a good portion of the 27 Hawks and yes they made Varsity over kids who are juniors and seniors. The Legacy families rule Duke Of Gloucester St

Hats off to St Mary’s as well - it was 2-1 in the 4th

Hats off - for what? They scored all of 2 goals. I get that the x attack was dominant in HoCo youth lacrosse, but you're telling me St. Mary's can't find a more mature and better player at that spot with all of the Hawks and other travel players who go there? There's gotta be a back story on that one.

kids mom is a dermatologist with a back room to make the end of everyone's visit happy. the coaches have been in their after work almost daily.

LOL…tough crowd.

You must be new to the game. Let me explain.

- Both defenses and goalies were stellar.
- As a result, each possession was methodical and valued with care
- The game was chess not checkers
- Earlier this week, USA lacrosse ranked BBP #1 in the country and GC #14.
- Both teams will win counties and State finalists, at a minimum.
- Long Island is still THE hotbed.

Have a wonderful weekend.

Xoxo

The person (mom, dad?) posting personal stuff about a child needs to be banned from this site. No excuse for it. And opens those people and BOTC up to big lawsuits for defamation and probably a lot of other actions involving children and privacy.

It all went downhill from that point for wantagh. Looks and sounds (lack thereof in sounds) from the wantagh coach hasnt the slightest clue and in over her head. If you thought st ants coach was unqualified and terrible then look no further towards that other sideline. Space cadet city.

But that’s the issue it has nothing to do with the player why did they(91) get an exemption and others didn’t I’m sure there are very similar situations across some teams . If you do it for one you must do it for all and if you don’t everyone has the right to be suspect of the process and rules. But let’s not kid ourselves we all know the organization played in the grey as well to make it happen. So the rules are not black and white or maybe just for some. Sad that the ruling board ruined it for a few and took away a few kids opportunity for an event but made an exemption for one because of the Orginization he played for or some other reason. Either way it is was it is . It’s just sad that not even youth sports can be fair and what some adults will do just to pound their chest and say look at how great we are!
