[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My only prediction is it will be a really surprising season.

This is the first full season most of these juniors and seniors have even played.
There are several new coaches - will they come out with a bang or will they build in the early season and pick it up in the second half as league play increases?
Yes there will be a few Freshmen - maybe impactful, maybe not
There is also a strong Sophomore class just coming into the mix this year as well.

I've got my popcorn ready for a great season![/quote]

Agree with this but these Juniors have played with and against the top kids in fall and summer as much or more than they will play this spring. It is not like this will be the first time they see this level of competition.  [/quote]

The pressure is 10x more intense in the Spring with HS teams vs playing club ball in the summer/fall months.

It happens every year, kids who look like total phenoms in the club ball circuit (high IL national ranking for their grad year...), and are significantly less impactful in HS season games, when HS coaches can break down film and scheme.

I'd also add in the HS regular season, some HS programs do a great job in getting their football and basketball players to come out and act as defensive middies. Landon and Bullis in particular have been doing this for years. These are kids who don't play any club and are athletic enough to just pick up a stick and play.

I agree with a previous poster, I don't see ANY team from the DC private school team going undefeated this Spring.  Between, SJC, Landon, Prep, Bullis, Gonzaga, PVI, and the Saints... I really think these will be a lot more competitive with one another than most people think.

Let the games begin!

SJC won't lose to anyone local.  Entire starting attack, D, and goalie back.  Could easily lose to Hill Academy, IMG, or St. Anthony's.;  [/quote]
