[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are correct. They also had fast breaks but then would slow the play down to turn over the ball. Not sure what the strategy is, but it does not work for them. And none of them were aggressive on the goal.  GC has 20+ girls that would start on any team. sJC has at most 8.  They were no match for GC, but who is in this area??[/quote]

Why would anyone choose a team that deep? Good for the program but there are other schools with better academic reputations and where talented players would actually play. It’s one thing to choose a college program knowing you might not play but care more about winning a championship but for high school I would think most players would rather just play on a competitive team.[/quote]

Here we go again with this nonsense…[/quote]

Not sure why it’s nonsense? The end game is college—with or without lacrosse and even with lacrosse these girls will have careers. So if GC is the best academic fit and the girl is ok not playing as much as at another school then great, but otherwise why wouldn’t girls choose schools where they’d play more and perhaps have stronger academics.

What a stupid, elitist comment.  [/quote]

Different strokes for different folks. The end game is life. It is a fallacy to assume a player does not have a meaningful role on a team and/or experience if they do not play in a game. Some reasons why a girl would not pursue a school with perceived stronger academics and a less competitive lacrosse program could include but not be limited to the following: cost, friends, life goals, distance, siblings, community, values/faith, and the desire to improve by practicing with and against better players, not to mention better coaching. You can also certainly attend a more competitive academic school for a similar set of reasons and it is completely valid if a player wants to attend a school that is a more appropriate fit for their athletic ability. Again, different strokes for different folks. [/quote]

I'm not sure why you're so concerned about the GC girls lacrosse team.  They aren't your daughters.  You must have issue with the school or the coach or their recent success.[/quote]
