Bullis has way too much talent that be easily discounted.

According to who? Ty Xanders who is paid by club programs to hype up individual players?

I didn't see much talent on the field for Bullis yesterday (other than #19) or even a well coached team. Bottom line, Bullis tried to buy a football championship this off-season by bringing double digit transfers and look how it worked out for them. Expect to see the same result for the lacrosse team.

Aren't all the Performance Coaches coaching this team?

Not a good look for St. Albans last night in their game against Potomac. Their student section was out of control and a bench clearing altercation at the conclusion of the game.

What happened?

I don’t where else they work. But they just aren’t that good. And their behavior is embarrassing.

Not a Bullis parent as my son attends another school in the IAC but is coached by one of the DCE / former Performance coaches. They are good guys at heart but sometimes let their emotions get the best of them.

Oh no. Sounds awful. Can’t remember the last time I saw a fan fight. That’s old school. Don’t think schools tolerate that anymore.

Prep suffers another loss to Illinois power Loyola Academy today.

Maybe the W against Gonzaga was a fluke.

Okay, judging by Potomac's twitter feed celebrating their own student section as "the best in the area," https://twitter.com/PotomacSports/status/982767149440815104, and the final score of St. Albans defeating Potomac 17-5, as a neutral area lacrosse fan with Sherlockian powers of observation I am going to guess that (a) the post criticizing the St. Albans student section as "out of control" was posted by a disappointed Potomac parent; and (b) that the "bench clearing altercation" is an exaggerated description and that, if/when blame is assigned, it will center on the team that came into the game looking for a big win and then lost by a dozen goals. Why would the winning team be mad enough to get into something?

Elementary, my dear Watson.

This is the pre-game tweet with the video of the Potomac student section (they seem unobjectionable):

https://twitter.com/PotomacSports/status/982767149440815104

The twitter feed tells a tale of a let-down -- a string of tweets about the big game vs. Albans and then nuthin. No in-game updates or final score. Did St. Albans get off to a quick start and kill the Potomac twitter morale?

Maybe Loyola is a good team? I don’t know. But lax is growing in the Midwest.

Preps losses have only been by a few goals, as have many of their wins. They will be battle tested by the time of the league tournament and ready for close games.

I heard Prep had a nice W against STA in Friday.
