| Thoughts on Bethesda girls ECNL program? |
what age group specifically? thats a factor |
| Any feedback at the 2003 age group. |
| Weak. The only group that is competitive is 05. |
| Heard they replaced the DOC last Summer and things may be looking up (maybe)? |
Kevin Layton took over as ECNL director and heavily involved in a few teams. Some more movement from MRM and not just 05 team. |
| Why would you consider the 2003 group weak? They seem to have done well in the Fall showcases. |
| Younger groups are stronger |
They are probably the 2nd best ECNL team at Bethesda but regional and nationally they are weak. I doubt they even get close to qualifying for ECNL nationals. They finished in the bottom half last year. |
The Bethesda 2003 ECNL and ECNL RL teams are being coached by Trey this year. He is considered to be one of the top BSC coaches and the ECNL NE division is one of the tougher ones. The ECNL team is about half 10th graders, so they are a younger teams. The older players have mostly committed to colleges already. They had a poor showing last weekend in the MD United Showcase, but were under rostered (13-14 players). I’m not sure why. The RL team won their bracket, beating OPSA Magic (State Champs). If the committed players decide to not travel as much with the team this year, I suspect the door is open for players on Trey’s RL team. BSC has been told to focus more on winning this season and all the teams have been doing a lot of scrimmaging and winter leagues to get ready. We will see. |
Okay. |
| Any word on the 06 Ecnl team-is Kevin Layton going to be coaching them next year? Will they plan to recruit more girls from Montgomery Rush? |
not sure its officially been decided yet and those girls have been practicing with them all winter. many dont want to come over |
| ^^^Any reason why? Will they go to Pipeline instead? |
| They are either going to McLean or MUFC. Only players coached by Layton will stay. The others will head to better clubs. |
