Pride was already top 10, now with the new goalie and most of the other pickups, they'll be highly competitive. The Orange team, however, are full of a few remaining pride girls and a number of SSSA girls (who you could argue ONLY made the team due to attending SSSA). There were a number of more talented girls who did not get offers.
I would say the Blue team will be fine, the Orange won't break top 80.
Someone a long time ago asked what you needed to do in advance of Capital tryouts to put you on the short list. The answer is clear 1) Play for Pride (Katie...or whoever runs the program now) can't retain talent once they hit HS and 2) attend SSSA where Kathy Jenkins throws her weight around and gets her sub-par SSSA girls offers.
If true, why would anyone at this level want their daughter to play on a team that has sub-par players who did not earn their way on the team?
