What argument are you even making crazy lady? Just that the 27s and 28s, actual living breathing teenage girls, are terrible lacrosse players? Or that the club sucks and the players should have instead chosen some make believe alternative? Try to act sober this time.


Lol, no. I have maintained for years that capital is lazy, incompetent, and behind the times with the HS only model. And for years I had to hear the incessant yapping of annoying capital parents about how their kid’s team was going to be amazing, that capital was amazing, and that capital will get their kid into any school bc every coach in the world loves capital. Since there are good players in DC and zero legit competition, capital did really well when the given year had talent and 100% of the local kids stayed home. But as we can see now, I was correct. Capital isn’t magic, they just get lucky whenever their is a good class and kids/families don’t make the right decision to tryout elsewhere.

Regarding whether kids should have chosen an alternative, yes, they certainly should have done so. Each year you are seeing kids leave for better run programs like heros and m&d, the few uber talented 28s and 29s should have gone elsewhere too. They definitely had options, but the cap blue myth persists.


This obsession is in serious need of therapy.

What if the best of the best players don't want to drive to M&D or Heros. As you have eluded the club doesn't matter so they will be just fine at Capital. Such a weird obsession with Capital. I get it the website and social media stinks but people keep joining because of the previous results. If you hate it great don't join. Not sure why you are so annoyed by it.

You thought those were normal brownies - been there. Roll with it. You’ll feel a little paranoid for a while but that will pass. Stay hydrated.

This person may be obsessed but it doesn’t mean they’re wrong. There’s a legitimate frustration with the area girls club lax programs that seems to manifest itself with a focus on Capital. This is not just a Capital problem.

The frustration is partially misplaced because the younger local clubs are not as well run and coached as the Baltimore/annapolis clubs and Capital is where everyone put their last hope after years of poor youth coaching and training. Talented Girls are leaving the DC area early because the younger clubs underperform. I can’t blame families for making that decision given the absurd reality of sophomore year exposure and performance for college recruiting.

The Capital HS model is a legacy of an older era that will not hold up if better run clubs come into existence at the k-8 age group in this area. The MnD DC 28 team exposed this coming competition.

It is fascinating that Capital can’t see the writing on the wall here. They run the risk of becoming irrelevant in 5-10 years if they don’t expand at least into middle school. Any savvy business person should be able to see this.

I believe Capital will take notice when it starts hitting the bottom line of healthy baller. That’s probably a few years away though.

This is the weakest attempt of pretending to be a different poster from the deranged Cap hater to have ever graced the hallowed halls of DCUM.

How many girls from each class left the area? And I don’t mean, left after they were offered no or an orange slot. I bet if you did the math, it would be less than 5%. I’m open to be wrong but would like to see the numbers.

There are lots of folks who pretend to know, and some folks who have older daughters and at least have some sense. Most of the posters on this point tend to shade their answers with their biases.

From my perspective, I know of 3-4 who would have made a real impact if they stayed and went out for Capital in the 2028 class. There are also a couple of tweeners who live in Montgomery or western side of Howard County who went to Baltimore clubs early, who may have played BLC or NL in prior years/other classes as well. The number is not 10+ like the Cap haters like to say.

I will not pretend to know the number for 2025-2027, but if there were seriously talented girls who left for Baltimore in the 2025 class, that's pretty amazing, as there was lots of talent left over.
