15-6 Prep final, STA apparently lost 3 starters including their D1 pole in the Bullis game. Do not think it decided the game, but could not have helped the score. |
| Prep lax dominates the DMV |
I heard GP’s 3rd attackman scored around 7 goals. Considering STA’s lack of depth, the loss of their D1 pole may have been very significant. |
Only PVI is positioned to make that claim. One more win. |
15 vs 12 is hardly dominance. Should take GP three more years to even it up. Bigger, stronger players beat much physically smaller teams most of the time. |
Hah! I love troll posts. Guaranteed to provoke a response and lead to an argument filled with the unprovable. Next step will be a demand from a handful of fans and parents for a DMV Title game in which the schools have no interest. |
I’ll take that bet. Landon was pretty young this spring and didn’t graduate a stellar senior class. |
The Bullis opening will attract a lot of good applicants. Will be interesting to see who they land |
Anyone can come to their own conclusions to fit their narrative. Giblin started at Prep in 1988. So I guess we won’t include those Landon victories or banners because why? Preps varsity teams weren’t ready or good enough? Didn’t take the sport “seriously”, sounds like all lame excuses. DC area lacrosse is not what it is today if it weren’t what Bordley did at Landon and growing the game in the DMV community. Giblin and then Casey ONeill were the next crop of coaches / pioneers to help establish what the DMV lax scene is today. |
Probably, but there is nothing in the pipeline after the 27 class. |
+1 |
If Bullis attracts the right coach they will remain competitive |
Lame excuses? Actually it's facts. When Giblin finally got the better GP athletes interested in lacrosse in about 1997 the programs were just about equal. Landon banners prior to that period should have asterisks for being "essentially unopposed". Casey O'Neill was still in high school in 1998. |
Why wouldn't they give it to the Next Level assistant coach already on the Bullis staff? He's also a teacher at the school. |
Facts according to who???? Some Prep old-timer? Since you know everything about the IAC history, you should remember back in the 80's and early 90's STA and Episcopal fielded competitive programs, but you seemed to forget that part. |
