Too many of you all see this edge for more than what it is. If a better player that doesn’t play for Stars attends the Capital pre tryout activities, they will stand out. The edge is given to the player with better speed, stick skills and lax iq.

It might be an edge for borderline players that would not stand out in a tryout situation. For the top and bottom tier players it does not matter.

I think boys type and potential growth also makes a difference. Only a few select girls under height and weight make the team. Player has to be able to hold her own physically too.

I have to agree with you because they are girls and we are talking about body type. But I’d you look at the blue and orange team, there is a side difference in many of them

What would most consider to be the optimal body type for middies (since they play both offense and defense) in terms of height (I get speed, strength are all important just curious about height).

Middies are horses, you ideally want 5’7-5’8 physical specimens that can run up and down but more importantly is quickness and stamina.

Think #7 on at Loyola.

Speed, strength, and stature are all relevant, but talent and game impact will be the deciding factors. This is true not only for top clubs like Capital, but even for most top 20 programs. Height can help, but "quickness and stamina" are more important as the last poster noted.

Just to put this in perspective, all of the top 5 ranked teams in D1 women's lacrosse have at least 2 middies on their roster that are 5'4 and under. UNC has 6! Any team in the country would want Emma Tyrell from Syracuse, etc. Height is a plus, not a must.

A lot of middies in middle, high school, end up on defense in college.

Let’s move away from talking about 7th grade or any women/girls sizes.

I for one at very excited to see some of the Stars/Pride girls play together at AS.

And to a previous poster, two Pride girls just joined stars Lb. So some slight movement has in fact happened.

Interesting. What position were the players that left Pride for Stars?

Love the 7th grade lax movement speculation!

More than 2 now? I’m skeptical considering the history of lies and exaggerations on this forum.
