At the college level, definitely. In soccer you’re competing against kids from South America and Europe. D1 soccer rosters are full of those kids. For basketball, there’s some foreign talent and basically every boy in the US tries playing at some point. You have to be a stud athlete to have a prayer of playing D1 college basketball. Lax is way less competitive and a pretty good athlete who works hard can get recruited.

Any club trying to hold tryouts mid season is clueless. You really think you are going to be able to get a team of kids who's parents are cool with just eating 3-4k plus on what they paid for current club? Atleast they were smart enough to pivot when they realized they had extremely low #s signing up. I still dont understand their play in this market. You have True NOVA, True Loudoun, Top Caliber, Madlax, STJ (honestly not sure if they even had any teams left). That's just the VA local teams. Maybe they try to fill the void that STJ tried to provide, but that experiment did not go well for a plethora of reasons.

You forgot VLC. St. J might be trying to get teams back together now that they have SF there.

VLC in VA is a dumpster fire from the top down. Their kids should be easy pickings for other programs.

Was a GM at the PLL and MLL level. Thats a pretty decent resume and prob a way better fit the Sowell was for that program. Maybe he can turn it around

He's the head of all lacrosse at TSJ (boys and girls) after SS left. there is a new director of girls lax at TSJ as well.

They have in the past. Their IG recently posted about tryouts for 2027-30 teams. Maybe they had to take a break for a year?

Not exactly. D1 lacrosse is about as competitive as D1 football to earn a roster spot. D2/D3 is not quite as daunting but it’s still competitive. Also, college lacrosse teams will carry huge rosters. Guys who actually play actually rostered is a different story.

A large number of D1 players could walk onto a D1 lax roster and be given a year to learn to use the stick. Jordan Faison isn't the most skilled player, but he ran by everyone so he was a threat on the field. Every P4 school has guys like that.
