The 05 team is one of only two opponents that has scored on BSC this season. From what I heard, the PDA 05 team has a half dozen girls who have attended the YNT training camp. The U18/19 team has girls heading to UNC, Rutgers, South Carolina, ND, Yale, etc. The U17 has commits to places to similar schools. BSC is a competitive club but let's be realistic. The 05 and 06 teams are very competitive with PDA while the other age groups are not as competitive with PDA but will compete for a playoff spot.
But Kev, again, not a S-I-N-G-L-E goal scored all weekend by any BSC ECNL team - 07, 06, 05, 03, Composite. How is that even possible? PDA defense across all age groups are that good, or is BSC offense that bad?
Not Kevin or any coach, but Bethesda 05s scored. And PDA is that good. So far this year:
PDA 07s have scored 60 goals and conceded 4 in 11 games. Last ECNL season they scored 50 and conceded 4. Bethesda 07 scored 2 of those 4.
PDA 06s scored 11 and conceded 0. Last ECNL season they scored 35 and conceded 4. Bethesda 06 scored 3 of those 4.
PDA 05s scored 19 and conceded 2. Bethesda scored 1 of those 2.
I could go on, but you get the point. PDA is dominant.
Last weekend was a rough one for BSC, for sure. But as one post said, there’s no shame in that result against PDA. There aren’t many clubs that can match PDA blue across the board. PDA was dominant across age groups with the exception of the 06s. PDA 06s could barely get the ball across midfield. BSC was way too fast for PDA and completely dominated the entire game and should have scored at least 4 goals. But they couldn’t put the ball in the back of the net. Coulda shoulda woulda. The girls learned that they gotta take advantage of every opportunity. PDA had an awesome goalkeeper and some very good defenders - game 2 between those teams will be fun to watch. All said, the results last weekend were not unexpected. The likely most unexpected result was how dominant the BSC 06s were.
