After langley losing #8 their offense is not much. The game might be close with that good fogo they got but at the end of the day I can see them losing to a Madison that runs a good system. We see this every single year. Sure, they won the region last year but they are nothing more than spoiled kids with no grit. Programs like Robinson and Madison are built on grit, while langley kids get everything handed to them on a golden platter. The skill for Langley is there, but they lack all type of drive or determination to go get things done.

LoL yeah all.the poor working class Kids from Vienna Oakton and Fairfax have grit.

The Independence growth and success has been being worked on for years and carefully curated by coaches who have dedicated countless hours on developing talent and a love for the game for over a decade.

Starting in the youth ranks these coaches brought together a group of families that have stuck through things in thick and thin and the results speak for themselves.

The main objective was for the boys to have fun and develop a passion. High school success and college recruiting was secondary but as a result these guys are really talented, being recruited and committed and these families will be life long friends as a result.

No other program in the area has taken this much time and dedication and it shows on the field. I think they'll be around for awhile and rest of area could learn a thing or two about multi year commitments to development. This is why Long Island/New England and Baltimore are "better"

Ahhh - how about Riverside? 5 straight state champs. How is that not as dedicated?

Ah but you don't have the "Indy Slasher"! Winning with sportsmanship is so basic. If you're not illegally slashing kids behind the play (and getting cover for it by leadership), you're not trying...

Herndon has a tough schedule, maybe 4 or 5 blow outs (SL, Edison, Wakefield, Marshal, WL or Centreville) but some tough teams on their slate. They should be around top 10 but their record could be at/below .500 at the end of the regular season. I'd have them 9 or 10 right now bumping out Westfield.

What's the word on WnL this year? They were pretty good last year. Do they have what it takes to knock off the State Champs week 1?

They lost their elite midfielder and one of the best goalies in the state so I would be shocked if they beat West Po.

Dulles South rec program parents are the worst which is why Indy is so disliked since kids learn from their parents.
