Tier 4 (Outside looking in)
Coppermine EDP
Virginia Valor CCL
Baltimore Armour GA
Baltimore Celtic GA

We’ll if that makes your day, your DD however is not a better player than many players in lower tiered teams.

My DD is on one of the Maryland teams. All the Maryland teams are over rated by you. Even the youth soccer rankings are inflated by a point or two. They lose to the top teams to the North(not even close) but gain points. Then they play themselves and gain more points because they beat each other. Seriously get real.

LOL, yet Bethesda owns Loudoun every time they play. Pipeline would beat every team in the first tier except Richmond. PDA is a much better team than Richmond. I agree that Union, Arlington, and VDA are superior to Bethesda hands down but your other claims are completely off based.

Lets be clear, you do not have a player on a top Maryland team. You are simply a Metro parent who is delusional.

Arlington lost to Richmond at home so they should be moved down a tier. Richmond and VDA tied VA Union so all three should be placed in the same tier. Loudoun and FCV should be placed in the same tier so that the parents would go at each other and biker over which team is better. I honestly don't see any team that is head and shoulders above the others.

PP this is where your logic makes no sense.
Arlington tied NC Courage who beat Union 6-1. But they also lost to Richmond who tied union. Should Arlington be ranked above or below union? You wouldn’t know from using selective pieces of info.

Best synopsis by a mile, MD United is playing like crap and is more likely tier 3 for now though.

You've missed my point. I don't think that there are legitimate tiers at this time. All these teams are beating up on each other and there is little to separate any particular team from the rest of the pack. Sure, if there were a couple of local teams that smashed everyone else or at least most of the opposing teams, one could create a higher tier, but so far results do not support it. I suppose you could create a separate tier for BRYC, which look weaker than everyone else, but there is no clear line to separate everyone else.

Not well.

Tier 1a should be FCV. Dominated WAGS. Wasn’t even close.

Don’t believe this. It’s actually the opposite. They got lucky against TFA and parked the bus in the final vs ANBRY for the whole second half. They also tied FC Bucks, a team rated lower than Bethesda, Pipeline, and MD United. I’ll give them STA. Those are the facts. It actually is underwhelming.

FCV was very impressive this weekend. Maybe in Jeff Cup we can see them vs VDA or Richmond.

Parking the bus is a valid tactic. Look it up. I’ll take your input when you actually know something about soccer.

Agree. At my DD's club they practice having the lead vs being down by one in situational play.
