[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look to get on a team that plays in the USYSA National League. McLean’s Green ‘00 and ‘01 National league teams coached by Jamil Walker have a number of kids playing D1 now, and Baltimore Celtic has a ton. OBGC has had one or two recently, and maybe Arlington as well. [/quote]

Mclean is out of National League.  [/quote]

Yes, I meant to use that as an example of how teams that are in the National League historically do fairly well placing players in D1. Jamil is a great coach by all accounts, but whether he could help place kids who are on teams that are not at that level is an open question. [/quote]

Those McLean teams placed way more players in D3 than D1.  [/quote]

Still better than most non-DA clubs/teams do.  They also developed players who moved to DA after years and years at McLean and went on to D1. It may be that those golden years are now over, but Jamil’s players in those age groups had a great run. [/quote]
