The game is on YouTube. Point out when the starters were pulled. https://www.youtube.com/live/zQGUItMrU0s?feature=shared

Most likely the worst loss in Prep lax history and that is saying something.

How do you blow a 7 goal lead in the 4th quarter?

You can't dispute the facts... the MIAA is 5-1 over the DC area privates in the first week of play.

BL over SJC
Severn over STA
St Pauls over Landon
McDonough over Gonzaga
Gilman over Prep

The lone win DC area privates have this year is Prep over Saint Mary's and Prep.

I think the operative phrase here is “first week of play”. While I’m happy for the MIAA teams, I wouldn’t get too excited. There’s still a lot of lacrosse to be played and teams will figure things out.

Really? Reading comprehension must not be your strong suit. PP did not say "starters were pulled". PP said "subbing in backup players". But since you asked for it, here you go.

First let me start by saying Prep's top scorer in the STM's game did not play in the Gilman game (no idea why) and that was an obvious absence. Besides that, starters were being subbed in the first quarter. Not all, but some. Remember Prep dominated Gilman for the first three quarters. The score was 11-3. So yes, lots of starters were being subbed in and out. More importantly though, throughout the fourth quarter there were multiple non-starters playing. One second string defender was in the 4th quarter for 4 of Gilman's goals. Another second string defender was in during parts of the 4th quarter and overtime along with multiple backup middies. Not saying the 8 goals in the 4th quarter were any one person's fault, it seemed more like a full team (including coaches) breakdown.

That being said, it is the first week of games and the bench is pretty young. The coaches and the team are obviously still trying to figure things out. Remember Prep lost like 18 seniors last year. Many of these players are new to the field and this team. Last year Prep lost 2 preseason games before they found their mojo and went on a 13 game winning streak. This team obviously still has time, but they do need to figure things out.
