Best school in the DVM.

All boys school? Best? Nah

I despise GZ....but they will not be 4th. DeMatha is awful....sorry...they just are unless the manage to grab all of Spalding or St, Mary's players suddenly.

GZ is not the best school in the DMV.....far far from it. Get off the Ice House GZ dad......you did manage to graduate from Harvard on the Pike right? Or was it Yale on the Yellow line?

Both PVI and Gonzaga are fairly close. They tied in the fall but before you claim fall does not mean anything, the game was called early as the players were pushing and fighting at every dead ball they were both playing hard. Should be a good battle this spring. SJC is better and Dematha below and easy fourth.

Actually shopping earlier this fall and attended that game up in Bethesda. Never seen anything like it. Gonzaga was clearly more talented but PVI was over the top aggressive. We applied to both, but skill-wise Gonzaga was much better, and someone told me the Purple have a much better freshman incoming class than PVI. So that's part of our thinking on the two schools too. But totally agree on Dematha. They played Gonzaga's second team which was short handed and mostly freshman and they killed them. So, no way Dematha is any higher than 4th.

SJC is the clear frontrunner to win the WCAC this Spring and everyone else will be competing for 2nd fiddle.

PVI and Gonzaga will battle it out for 2nd and 3rd place respectfully. After these two, the depth of the league will drop off immensely this Spring. My gut tells me DeMatha will round up the top 4 but this won't even come close to how talented DeMatha was last spring.

Where and when did Gonzaga play PVI this fall?

Many feel Gonzaga will be much improved at defense this year. The seniors that graduated on the defensive end where not very good. The two close defenders had poor season and really didn’t look like the top recruits they are considered. Way overrated as far as stick skills and IQ.

Gonzaga fans blame their bad season on Covid but Covid didn’t stop anyone from working out to get stronger, watching film to gain IQ, working ladders to improve footwork and hitting the wall to work on stick skills. Weak excuse

Next Level Fall HS League over at the Heights.

Put DM at 5. Unless Dave pulls some crazy transfers, they are gonna face getting upset by a team or two this spring.

Dave will have to learn how to coach at HS level. Even if he were to bring in another player or two before the season kicks in, I don't see DeMatha even competing this Spring with GZ or PVI. His overall results at the Heights are nothing to boast about.

Mitchell will have to decide what he wants to be. Good high school coach. Good club coach. Or social engineer. You mold young men but the job at the end of the day is winning and not promoting a social agenda. This has held back NL, and you could make the same argument about the time at the Heights. Play to win or not, but understand and be open about what your goals really are. He suggests one thing and does another.

What "social agenda" is he promoting?
