Maryland Red and Long Island Black do not play each other |
If they are both #1, #2 in pool play (both 3-0 now), they will be on separate sides of bracket and can meet each other in championship if they both win out in bracket play. |
| Long Island wins again |
Maryland won AA. All divisions. |
DC were co-champs in Burn division thanks to the weather. |
| Why thanks to the weather? |
Which speaks to the terrible competition level at AA. Not even challenging games. Not sure AA is going to survive the next two years, might just be Senior All Star thing. |
| People will always look for all star teams for their kids. AA will survive. |
This is likely correct. Especially because of the inability of AS to select the best players. |
The next All Star team to pick the best players without any politics will be the first, in fact, AA worse, that is how AS was created |

Pride Loudon's 2030 Team looks like they had a good year last year.
However it doesn't look like Pride has any other Loudon Teams, is the 2030 Team coming back for 25/26? If they are, did they grow as a team picking up players, etc.? Are there any other 2030 Teams out in the Loudon area? |
And other regions basically just bringing full club teams. That's not the point of an all star team. All 4 age groups were won by teams with no more than 6 players from other teams. so at least 16/22 players from 1 team for each age group. |
is it selection bias? is it just the best players in that area are going to be on the same team? is it economic status and the ability to pay to tryout and travel? its hard to disentangle the factors that probably go into who tries out and who gets picked, but its easy enough to say that this whole thing is unfair |
Isn't 3d there? |
3D is there but I don't think they have a 2030 Team, they have years above and below but not a dedicated 2030 Team. |
