It’s nice to see that top team Loudon ECNL tearing it up in the 4th flight in Bethesda Cup.

Threatened by Loudoun, are we? Guess your kid didn’t make the cut? |
My kid has never tried to make a Loudoun team. This is just laughable. Loudouns ECNL teams are terrible. The 05 is one of the worst in the very weak MA. |
Your kid never tried because you know she couldn’t make it. Even if they aren’t a great ECNL team, they’re all better than your kid. Sour grapes my friend, sour grapes. |
^^^^^ bitter Loudoun parent

| Haha. She plays on the DA at FCV. Loudoun sucks! |
Suuurrree she does. Haha. |
| wow, some real assholes in here taking shots at 13 and 14 year old kids. |
|
Forget them.
Bethesda ECNL did quite well as did the MSC team in the second bracket. In previous years most of the local ECNL teams and Pipeline played but this year Pipeline, MD United, McLean and BRYC played but were missing this year. |
Let’s keep this in perspective. In 05, Bethesda squeaked by STA second team 1-0 and 04 ties STA second team and that is doing quite well? Maybe relative to this tournament but when we start comparing to the DA it’s a different story where STA first team is playing. This is a great indicator of the strength of the DA versus ECNL. |
No one is taking shots at kids, they are taking shots at adults that unprovoked take pot shots at an entire team. That’s all. Anyhow Loudoun ECNL did win their flight, even though it was too low of one, but that’s what the tourney committee gave them. And no, I don’t think they are a top ECNL/DA team in the area, but they had some success this weekend against decent (but not great) competition. Most importantly of all, the players were very happy and had fun. |
Good point. STA’s DA team is impressive. Right now they have a 40 point goal differential, and only played 7 games. Arlington lost to them 2-1 and MU tied. They have a strong striker who is the top goal scorer in the league. FCV played them on Sunday. That was probably a great game. I’m sure their 2nd team is good, but a different level. |
Are you sure MU tied? I thought they lost, in every age group actually except the U19s. MU U19s won 2-0. |
They tied them once during a Cup game. I don’t know what the scores were from last weekend, though. |
FCV won 5-3. STA was down 4-0 at halftime and Christian started trying new things. Let STA back in a little, but never really a game. STA is a good team on the DA side though. |
