Pros:
can shoot T&R only
feeds the ball (at times)


No speed
no shake
small size
no mass
gets pushed around
cant dodge
afraid of contact
backs off contested grounders
ride is a tomahawk slash

overall very limited

Besides not having much choice the Landon game should be a great one.

I wish other teams (including my sons team) would challenge themselves like the Rams are doing... From my count it looks like 4 6A schools, 3 Private schools and the 4A state champion.

Most schools' ADs don't allow them to, they schedule all or almost all for them. Riverside has also been given special exemptions since Covid.

What kind of special exemptions?

Schedule more games that the team wants OOC without them being scheduled for them. There's a ton of sports in the spring, and ADs try to do the vast majority in a summer sit down. District games are mandatory, and then agreements are made to do 5s vs 4s in the county to fill others. Previously, 5s played 5s in Fairfax OOC, but now it's LC vs LC. For some reason, Riverside has been exempt from a lot of this, or at least their lacrosse team.
That may be less true now as there as so few 5s, and at least the 5s anyway might have a wide berth. For the other 5s in their district, it may come down to how much juice the coach has with their AD.

Thanks for the clarification. That makes sense now. So essentially the Riverside coach does a good job working with his AD to schedule the tougher OOC opponents. All in all, I really think its great for the sport in the area. Looking forward to watching some of those games this spring. Looks like Christchurch is coming to Leesburg.

Pretty good list, I actually think Riverside is probably 4th... They lost their entire attack and faceoff kid. They also have a very hard schedule, they will probably be around .500 this year. My list looks like this.

1. Indy - Too much talent to ignore them. Clear 1.
2. Briar Woods - Best Midfield in Loudoun with 2 D1 athletes.
3. Freedom - Beat Riverside last year, and return a great group.
4. Riverside - They will be ok, but on the decline.
5. Loudoun County - Building off of last year.
6. Woodgrove - Solid attack unit
7. Stone Bridge - Defense lost a lot, including the goalie.
8. Broad Run - They will surprise some people
9. Loudoun Valley - eh
10. Dominion - HC retired, not much there.

Well... anyone past 10 wont need to worry about it too much. Their season will be over rather quickly.
