[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Watched NW beat UNC yesterday.  NW has zero DMV girls on their roster and only one from Baltimore.  Are girls from the DMV as good as we think they are?  Has NE, NJ, Philly replaced DMV recruits?[/quote]

Of course, they're as good as we think they are.   They're our girls! :)     But the game has rapidly grown outside of the hotbeds.  If a top 20 D1 coach can choose between a 8/10 DMV athlete with great stick skills that have topped out, and a 10/10 athlete with reasonable stick stills that are still improving, they're going to take the 10/10 kid.    There are lots of 10/10 girls across the country that DMV and LI island girls weren't competing with 5-6 years ago.   [/quote]

Guys, this area has never ever been a "hotbed" for lacrosse and is still not close to being one. Long Island, Philadelphia, and Baltimore are the top, then Colorado. From Philly myself, played D1, and have been coaching and watching the girls' game since my now 2023 DD (who excels at a different sport and not lacrosse) was 8. This area simply does not produce the players that Philly and LI do. You will not see many, if any, girls from around here at the tournament, much less the final four. Not this year, and not a few years from now. The players at that level are certainly not playing for the ISL. [/quote]

Get over yourself. Who cares where you’re from or where you played. Look at where DMV girls are heading to college. To say this area isn’t a hotbed means you’ve been living under a bridge. And I’m sorry - if you think Philly in any way matches LI you are smoking the good stuff. [/quote]
