Does GP have a 2027 fogo? I'm looking to transfer my son.

The lost to MIAA Mt. St. Joe. But how much can you gather from this type of play?

Tell me you don’t understand NHSLS without … well, you know the rest. Great tournament, recruiters from top schools everywhere, fun to watch the play. But when doing so, you have to do the following: take this season’s team and subtract all the seniors. Then factor in that coaches use it for different purposes - some use it to see how best to play the upcoming hand they’re dealt for next season, who works well with who, schemes, recruiting needs etc, some clear the benches to get every kid a look, some all of that, some even go in and try to win with their best players in every game. Also, some kids skip it entirely because of club schedules, or they’re already committed and happy with it, and their coaches are fine with them not being there. Really just depends on each team. If you insist on using NHSLS as instructive for what next season could look like, restrict it the first 10-12 minutes. That the likeliest group of starters for next season. On that basis, Landon looked fine.

100% accurate. Majority of teams in this area use it to get young guys looks and to begin to build chemistry. That is it. Nobody cares how any of the schools did when next March comes.

It's the 3rd or 4th time someone has said the exact same thing. So yours is 4th or 5th. At least yours had brevity. Why does everyone keep detailing how NHSLS coaches handle it?

Considering your main qualifier is grad year, I suggest you look around and don't let everyone else know grad year's the thing.
They'll probably want to know if he can win faceoffs.

You should read earlier messages….if lacrosse is important to you, you should avoid Prep

Not really. If getting your son recruited to a great college is important to you, Prep is a great place to go (if paired with a solid club team - which goes for every HS). Prep may not be winning as much as they should or want to, but they're still sending plenty of kids to college with lacrosse.

And that's not to say Prep is better than Landon, Gonzaga or SJC for college recruiting. They're all in the same boat.

Ultimately, priorities are different for every kid. I wouldn't choose any school just for recruiting or winning, but if Prep fits the bill on all other counts, it's a great place to be to set yourself up to play college lacrosse.
