[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Aren’t the Pride 28’s ranked #14 in the country? That isn’t average. [/quote]

I probably would not hang my hat on a fall ranking, but point taken.  Recent competitive play against top teams puts them in a tier well above average.  Prior Pride teams have followed the same model, slowly improving over the years and peaking in 8th grade before being decimated by a Capital exodus.  [/quote]

Many Pride 25s, 26s and 27s left for Capital because they saw the 23s and 24s (who elected to stay together at Pride HS) generate underwhelming recruiting results. 24s were already in the Pride pipeline by the time the window opened for the 23s, but the 25s saw what happened to the 23s in real time and led the Capital exodus that’s happened since.

This is exactly what happened. I feel bad for the 2023 families who made the commitment to stay with Pride that year and help KM launch her HS program. Some bad luck with the club’s recruiting director leaving at a key time to take a head coaching job at American, coupled with a really bad replacement hire. Without the recruiting history of Capital and really no direction provided to those families on how to work the recruiting process it took longer than it should have for talent on that team to commit. That 2023 team was loaded, had some of the best talent in that class, and was very competitive in the highest brackets. I believe the team had 3-4 High School Players of the Year on it from various private and public school programs and many All Mets. The way KM handled that class killed the future of her high school program.[/quote]
