2023 Girls ISL and WCAC outlook

Anonymous wrote:Oakton or any public school will NOT consistently hang with the top privates. The reason being is, you get what you get from the zoning of the schools. Most of the time you see 1 maybe 2 years that a public is very good, then they drop off the face of the earth until another couple years goes by or perhaps never comes by again. Oakton has a decent team this year because the talent level overall in publics has dropped tremendously. Watch what happens to a team like oakton next year, they will be absolutely horrible and lucky if they get to 500 win percentage.
I'm all for publics as well, but they just cannot hang on a consistant basis. Oaktons strength of schedule is really horrible, just take a look. Congrats to oakton for going undefeated so far and good luck to them.
Lets move on.

My kids all go to private school but that is a gross oversimplification, utilizing just about every logical fallacy out there.

Tier Two
PVI and SSAS

Tier Three
BI, Potomac, Holy Child

The rest.

I wouldn’t disagree with that breakdown…

oh and add SJC to tier 1 as they deserve to be there too.

SJC is a clear tier 2. Tier 1 isn't worried about them.

Lol. Not worried until they are tied and they burn that last 3min of the game.

So….congratulations to Oakton for having a solid year. I hope your recreation programs around your school continue to do well.

The discussion is about top tier DMV HS teams. Doesn’t matter if they’re public or private. Oakton has shown it can hang with SAAS.
One win doesn’t get them into this discussion. But if they put other top tier teams on their schedule next year (Visi, SR, GC, PVI, SJC) and play them competitively, they - like any other team - have a right to be a part of the conversation. How can they not?

The title of this discussion is ISL WCAC outlook and has nothing to do with zoned high schools. So they are not a part of the conversation.

And furthermore - until Oakton's schedule is full of ISL AA and some Maryland privates then they are not part of the conversation. One game, one year does not make them a player. There is NO WAY Oakton is anywhere near the same playing field with the publics that are ranked (Darien, Bayport etc.) When they are good enough to be ranked, they will be ranked. Or mentioned. Or considered.

Also Yorktown wasn't out there asking to be a part of the private rankings last year nor Langley before them. Rightly so because look at them this year.

So - hypothetically- if a public team goes on a run in the DMV and starts crushing WCAC and ISL teams, you’d completely disregard them as irrelevant because they’re not a private school? Or that it wouldn’t matter because it’s outside the bounds of this thread? I know you’ll say that will never happen. Just trying to understand the country club logic.

Nope that team would be completely relevant. Darian and Garden City are public and they are consistently top tier programs. 1 win against a DMV private in a rebuilding year, is not worthy of top tier, sorry. Are any of the Oakton girls Committed to Top D1 programs?

If we all ignore the Oakton guy, he may eventually shut up. Please stop responding to his nonsense.

SJC beat Visi last year and lost to Stall Ridge by 1 this season.

St. John’s could have a battle today against Good Counsel. They gave Bullis a competitive game so it has to be right?
