Losses to Aces and Crush MD too. Barely beat Pride Red (??) by one goal (ranked 19) and squeaked by Monster (ranked 16) too.
The lacrosse dialogue on 28s is better on this thread. Parent drama seems to be the focus on the other one. Plus the next Capital tryouts will be for the 2028s, so why not join the fray.
To respond to the Hero's comments as a non-Hero's affiliated poster, here's my take. Coppermine went 55-3. Not sure losing to them says anything except that you played the best team in the country 3 times. Eagle Stix is an athletic powerhouse and routinely beats everyone but Coppermine. Any top 5-7 team not named Coppermine or Eagle Stix can lose to any other on a given day. Monsters can play above their level on occasion, and also down. And, Hero's is a good matchup for Pride Red. 2028's have played them to the wire twice. (For the double question marks poster, Pride Red 2028s, also tied M&D, Aces, played Crush within 2, beat Sky Walkers twice, and dominated the local teams--so slow your roll.)
What does all that say? On balance, Hero's was probably the 3rd best team all year. Not bad.
