[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pretty lame to see old SSSAS, pre-shot clock, stall ball tactics come back in the VISAA final.  Come on, you have the better team, up 4 goals, just play.  VISAA needs a shot clock.[/quote]
This poster clearly has an axe to grind against SSSAS/KJ, even when the facts show their team was just really good this year and played exceptionally good team lacrosse.  It’s always something: they can’t win the big one and will wilt at the end of the year, they can’t win in the shot clock era, they will choke because they can’t handle the pressure of expectations, they don’t play good competition, all the usual unsupported dribble.  All false.

The objective facts show they went 25-1, won two championships, played 10 games against teams ranked/receiving votes in national polls, got stronger as the year went on, dominated a good Stone Ridge team in the finals with a shot clock, and dominated a good STAB team in the finals without a shot clock.  They have good talent on the team coming back, and no one is claiming anything next year other than they will compete.  All not good enough for the haters.

I hope next year we can enjoy multiple quality teams in the area, and that the newer teams and established teams keep producing quality players we can root for in college as representing our region with pride.  So many of these high school girls are close friends from travel/the circuit, and much closer than many of the vitriolic posters on this board who tear down these impressive young women instead of celebrating them.  And for those who wanted a summary of the actual game, here’s the posted summary from the VISAA thread.

10-5 SSSAS wins.  A lot of talented players on both sides, SSSAS just much better team overall that played well together.  SSSAS went out to 5-0 lead, it was 6-1 at half, 7-3 well into 4th Q, and was never close.  A shot clock wouldn’t have made a difference. Congrats to two talented teams on impressive years, with STAB getting a signature win over an excellent Good Counsel team and SSSAS winning two banners.  A bunch of great players showing lax talent abundant in the region.  [/quote] 
This 100%
 Congrats to the Saints players! Well deserved! Looking forward to seeing all the DMV players from all these local schools playing in college. Our local peeps should be so proud of all these players and thankful the state championship trophy stayed in the DMV as it helps our region for recruiting and building strong lacrosse reputation for all these teams & for all the DMV programs. Instead of betting against each other support each team’s wins!  Happy for the SSSA and know many of the parents/players! I would much rather have SSSA with the trophy than a school in Charlottesville! [/quote] 
I think this is something we all can agree on! Keep the State Championship trophy in our local area is definitely a win for all teams here!  Also, Congrats to Visi! 🏆[/quote]
