All 3 of their D1 commits were not there and still only lost by 2

Did LB have the most D1 commits last year for a public NoVA HS?

Yes second place is Dominion with two and Oakton has one I assume you mean for this season as in 2023 class. No 2024 public school kids comitted yet but that could change by Spring.

LB has a strong team around the three commits everyone keeps bringing up!
Some great club players and young men who are playing or will play in college.

Young guys look good coming in too! Next spring will be here before we know it. Should be some great lax in NoVa publics.

Independence isn't class 6 and can't hang with the big boys. They are Class 5. Have fun continuing to be owned by Riverside.

Wait and see Independence has the best freshman class in all of N.VA and will be a contender in future seasons. Best team in the state is not always 6A

Must be some of those VLC 26 kids. We shall see. They are pretty good.

aren't the stronger VLC 2026 players at PVI?

They will be by the time they are upperclassmen…

All of VLC 2026's offense is at PVI and all of their defense is at Indy.

I believe the VLC 2026 goalie is at PVI too.

One is at PVI and the other one is at BI.

Again, this is a 2023 discussion not 2026.

The point is that the VLC 2026 Independence players will play V this season and make an impact. I am not sure if the PVI freshman will even make Varsity or have an impact this season.

The top Fresh players may get ceremonially moved up to V by end of season, some may play. Bottom line PVI JV is stacked, they would easily beat Indy Varsity, it wouldn’t be close.

PVI JV would smoke Indy not even close. Just not the same level but Riverside will smoke them as well.

Agreed, Riverside would smoke Indy too.

PVI has too large a team so don't count on any Freshman getting moved up ceremonially or otherwise this season. Back to the 6A regularly scheduled programming of which PVI, Indy, and Riverside are not a part of.

It sounds like you know how it works, thanks for the insight.

Now that we are done talking about teams NOT in 6A, who are the favorites in that division for next spring?

The key will be if they can develop the depth to compete with Robinson, Madison, Yorktown, and Langley. Those teams regularly have the depth that other NOVA teams don't. Out west, Riverside is a factory, not as sure about the PW teams, but expect the usual suspects.

Not sure if Robinson will be as good as they were, FOGO went to Madison and their top guys were seniors last year

May be a down year for Robo and also looks like Patriot may be a bit down with loss of the Rutgers A from last year. Way too early rankings:
1. Madison-Addition of D1 Fogo and still keep the crown until proven otherwise.
2. Battlefield-They will improve with strong senior class and probably top goalie in NOVA
3. Lake Braddock-The three D1 commits will find a way to reach the next level.
4. Robinson-will always stay in the top five
5. Langley-good players keep them alive Yorktown may be a 5(b) with Oakton a 5(c)

there could be other teams and VEL does seem to indicate some Spring success.

Who are the top 24s in the Nova public schools?

2024 class won’t be as strong as 2023 for NoVA publics as the top club players are at the privates. 7 d1 commits in NOVA I do not think 2024 will have as many.

Riverside will be average this year- they graduated 13 and the 24 class is meh.

Riverside is 5A, not 6A.
