It’s cherry picking - those Cap Blue 23s who chose high academics could have gone to much higher ranked lax programs if they wanted. They were turning down lots of offers and official invite requests after Sept 1 from those schools in favor of better academic options.

Clearly the definition of cherry picking is lost on you. The poster clearly stated Pride had a small number of commits. Their comment is based on all commits from all clubs. Not picking and choosing which they wanted to include.

“Cherry picking: the action or practice of choosing and taking only the most beneficial or profitable items, opportunities, etc., from what is available.“ The exact definition of what you’re doing.

Hmmm...so what recruits were selectively chosen? The reference is to an entire group of D1 commits from each club. Of those who committed to play D1 Pride (a small group, but all inclusive) had players commit to the highest ranked lacrosse programs. That was the statement. If the statement had been about Capital Blue clearly this group had the largest number of D1 commits and leaned towards higher academics. There is no right or wrong answer. Nothing more than noting an interesting stat from a club that offered no help to their players. The prediction asked for really is more about a question...can Pride continue placing players with quality lacrosse programs and can the club increase its commit numbers with their new recruiting director.

The original question didn’t single out any specific club. You seem to be the only one making this about pride.

If you want to cherry pick stats, would it also be true to say Cap Blue 23 sent the highest number of players (7) to top 20 lax programs than any other DMV club?

The Capital list is more impressive than Pride period whatever way you spin it. Someone is hitting the sauce here early trying to put a positive spin on Pride's poor record. Below are the Pride commit schools that have been listed. While the D3 list is solid, whatever you think of them none of the D1 schools they committed to made the NCAA tourney last year. By comparison, Capital Blue has 9 girls committed to schools that made the tourney last year, not to mention a number of Ivy's and other solid schools.

D1 Army
D1 Army
D1 Old Dominion
D1 Richmond
D3 Christopher Newport
D1 Temple
D1 Arizona State
D3 York
D3 York
D3 Colby
D3 Colby
D3 Middlebury
D1 South Florida
D3 Washington & Lee
D1 Lehigh
D1 UNC-Charlotte
D3 Bates

The statement was simply that Pride's 2023 class, on average, committed to higher ranked lacrosse programs. Not academic schools, lacrosse programs. Not the sauce, just a fun fact. Just as you noted 9 players who committed to teams who played in the NCAA tournament. A fun fact. It was clearly stated Pride's commit list was small. It was also clearly stated Capital Blue will most likely have a strong recruiting class. It was impressive to see how organized CLC was with the 2023s. It was also clearly stated Pride is a big question mark going into the 2024 class. Which the original question was about predicting how the 2024 class will do. The response included comments on CLC, Pride and VA Metro. Not singling out any one club. Compliments paid to the high volume and academic schools by CLC, to the Pride players who committed D1, and to some top schools VA Metro players committed to, plus an interesting commit to a new D1 program.

If you follow the string you will see someone, probably you, specifically singled out Pride out of comments made about CLC, Pride and VA Metro. So, you seem to be making it about Pride. No one else.

I can’t see two many girls on metro getting calls. Sorry

Um … hardly. You keep focusing on Pride. Lighten up Francis. We get it. You want people to think Pride is sending kids to better lax schools. Facts prove otherwise.

A PP said CLC Blue 23 sent 7 players to top 20s. Is that true? Did Pride have any top 20 commits?

What is your obsession with knocking Pride? No one said anything about Pride sending kids to better schools. The comment was simple, the few who are going D1 are going to higher ranked teams, on average. This is a fact. Why you are so obsessed with this is puzzling. Not sure if your are a CLC parent who just doesn’t want to acknowledge anything good about Pride or if you are a CLC director who doesn’t want any positive press for Pride. Either way it’s sad. But YOU keep bringing this club up, no one else. No one has made any comments knocking your precious Capital B team.

And that is a great accomplishment. Has anyone argued this point?

“The comment was simple, the few who are going D1 are going to higher ranked teams, on average. This is a fact.”

The original comment was on average compared to other teams. That is not a fact. That is wrong. Nothing against Pride. Just keep to the facts please.

A lot of the Cap players get their “amazing” D1 spots because Capital is a known commodity with a lot of connections, and they get to these big name schools and are miserable and never play. With a few exceptions of course - except for the miserable part. Congrats!!!

I count 0 metro recruits. They’re ranked 104 in the lax polls.

What is your obsession with promoting Pride’s precious D1 recruiting performance? The comment was simple. CLC Blue 23 sent 7 players to top 20 programs. YOU keep raising the odd average Pride D1 stat that no one (other than YOU) seems to care about.
