Just a point of clarification, both had in person tryouts.

That being said, we all know many were added to the team who never tried out....

DC 30s had 1 tie, 2 1-goal losses, and 1 2-goal loss. It's not like they got blown out of the water.

People were put on the team that didn’t try out?

The 28 DC AA team isn’t any better. 1-3 and out of the playoffs.

The difference was that AS was supposed to be made up of the top players from DC (Capital Blue). No one expected anything from AA. Maryland sent most of their top players to AA and they are 4-0 . Capital blue needs a reality check.

Me ball as usual. Gotta fill the highlight reel!

AS team was predetermined- tryouts don’t matter. Proof is that the truly best players are at AA and the team is successful.

Ironically these types of players probably get recruited first. Insane.

What does this mean? What “types” of players? Players who were on the AS roster? Are you now questioning both the selection process for the AS teams and also the entire recruiting process for any player who is recruited before a non-AS player? If your kid was wrongfully left off a team but is so amazing then she should be fine with her recruiting process and you should let your anger go and just focus on your kid.

And yes - "me ball" players get recruited to very specific types of teams. If you've been through the process you know exactly what teams those are.

Please elaborate for those of us that have not been through the process.

Yes. Which teams please. It would help parents to know so they know if they should tell their kid to run all the way up the field instead of making a smart long pass to move the ball faster, or tell them to keeping trying to drive through three defenders to look tough but turn over the ball in the process, or make lots of bad shots on goal because if you make one or two goals that’s all that matters, you look like you”did” something, even though you could have passed but instead turned the ball over and exhausted your midfield. Should they do these things? Like not on occasion but make a habit of it.

Do they want to play for a college coach that values those things - then yes. If they want to play for a team that plays actual lacrosse then they should learn to make the extra pass - but I think you knew that already.

The PP claimed to know exactly which teams like the me-ball so I’m asking because actually no I don’t know which teams those are - we have not been through recruiting yet.
