Last year, Stoneridge and Saints tied for regular season best record. (With Saints winning the regular season, head to head as I recall.). I think Visi Lost to Potomac last year so they had two losses in the ISL |
In a truly boring game with no intention to play offense by either team, SSAS is trying to come back late. 7-4 with 4 minutes to go. |
7-5 Visi |
This is funny because kj yelled hard at her girls today. Is that deplorable too? She’s such a goat. |
How so? |
Stall ball when down by 3 might not be the best strategy...it a risky gamble. |
Yell at the players instead next time. |
If this score doesn’t scream the need for a shot clock nothing will. |
Oh she yelled. |
What’s the point being made here? Most public schools in a sport like lacrosse would be better if none of their local players went to private schools. Really dumb. |
Visitation has a strange habit of hiring the parents of players (in 2 of their main sports, incredibly) so, yeah, theres just a wee bit of favoritism that goes on there. |
The point is we should be forced to live in the world Stalin envisioned where our kids’ futures are foretold. |
ISL desperately needs a shot clock, but that doesn’t automatically lead to higher scores. We might even see lower scores since teams will have to start settling for bad shots |
Every coach has favorites in every sport at all levels. Several of the Visi parents I have spoken with contrasted this season with prior seasons noting that the coaches are keeping it fun for the girls. Parent coaches won't always work out well, but in this case, it is my understanding that the coaches' daughters happen to be very strong players. My experience is that coaches often ride their kids more than other players. Nice group of girls. Fans are pretty OK too. The only real concern with parent coaches is probably continuity. Will the coaches stay and build a program? This is ultimately why privates do best when the teachers coach. |
Visi has a wonderful new AD: former notre dame lax player,teacher and she is going to rock the job which she starts in the fall.
The parents on here that bad mouth the dad coaches have their own agenda. For the parent trying to decide between visi and sr- lacrosse should not be your deciding factor. |
