[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First, congratulations to all of the players (from any program) who have committed to play a sport they want to continue at the next level. Second, kudos to Capital, if true, for [b]recognizing their shortcomings with their 2022 recruiting efforts and making the changes to have early success with its 2023 class.[/b] Having 14-15 players commit so early is not a coincidence, this involved calculated planning on the clubs part to make this happen.

Sadly, for the Pride 2023s it appears they are falling victim to the same mistake Capital may have made with its 2022 class based on comments on this board. At least schools are familiar with the Capital program. Few colleges seem to even know of Pride, and it appears few schools are hearing from Pride promoting players. Talk about a bad one-two punch. Have to feel for the Pride 2023 players. They have some extremely talented players.[/quote]

Great so what about the ‘22s?  Some top D1 schools are still committing players - Stanford, Dartmouth, Columbia, and a few other recently added a ‘22 to their rosters. None were Capital girls. Where is Capital?  Why aren’t they still working on tge ‘22s?  They seem to have just said “too bad” and mixed in, screw the girls. That doesn’t bode well for you younger players if they are committed in the first few rounds. [/quote]

As a Capital 22 Orange parent, this post is a load of crap. There isn’t a single uncommitted 22 good enough to play for any of the schools listed. Stop blaming everyone else and consider the possibility that your daughter isn’t good enough to play at a top program. [/quote]

+1000. The Capital 22 Orange parent hit the nail on the head.

Maybe for the orange team. Not accurate for 3-4 blue players. [/quote]

My daughter didn't love lax enough to play at a school which did not align with her college expectations.  It is heart breaking as the parent but it took a lot of confidence for my daughter to walk away and decide not to play.  She is happy with her choice.  She supports her team mates who will play at the next level and is thrilled some landed their dream schools.   I know this isn't the typical path for many high level players but it worked for our family.  Lacrosse taught us many good lessons and we will never regret the time we spent with our daughter and watching her play.  I wish you all much success with your daughter's process.  My advice, sometimes you can't see the forest for the trees. [/quote]
