[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Email was a little too over the top praising Capital, a turn off. Read a lot like the fake BLC Stars partnership a few years back. How did that go? I am sure the BLC parent coaches and the few coaches who played in college want to “learn” from young adults and lower tier FCPS coaches. Maybe BLC will make some commission for sending players to HB. Don’t buy into people. [/quote] As you can see, these facts aren't well taken here. The same DA keeps commenting and posting about the 23s over and over. Here's a hint, we get it and congrats to those players, but who cares. Maryland clubs get that every year, year in and year out. But hey keep repeating yourself like the JB you are. The BLC 28 team is worse than most low level rec teams. Pride has some talented teams and seems to develop the best right now. Stars is such a disaster, it's amazing players continue to go there and they continue to exist. If your top feeder clubs for MS all are on the decline and aren't developing talent like they should, then how do you expect those Capital teams to be competitive? 3...2...1... on how long it takes for a response about how MD dads are shaking about the Capital pipeline. Guess what, the people commenting here aren't MD dads. [/quote] DMV hater guy is back! Took a spin through your OP to see if you cited any facts. Saw only opinions. Half-baked ones. Here’s a fact: Capital last year sent players to BC, Denver, Yale, UVA, Georgetown and others. Here’s another: Prior Capital classes sent players to UNC, Syracuse, Northwestern, ND, Duke, Cornell, Virginia Tech, MIT, Michigan, Ohio State, Maryland, Navy, UVA, Jacksonville, Dartmouth, Columbia, William and Mary, Brown, Yale, Princeton, JMU, Penn, Harvard, Hopkins, Richmond, Stanford, Penn State, Vanderbilt, Colgate and other great schools and programs. Capital recruiting has gone toe-to-toe with the best MD clubs for years. If you’re surprised by the ‘23s, you haven’t been payin’ attention. So you're a DMV parent who sent your MS kid to a MD club. If that decision was best for you or your kid, mazel. You represent a tiny fraction of DMV parents who do this. You're driving thousands of extra miles each year, spending hours and hours in nightmare traffic, dealing with imbalanced MD parents (fitting in?), fighting MD club politics, and risking fewer minutes for your kid to shine on the field during her prime HS recruiting years. Hope it’s all worth it. A de minimis number of DMVers do what you do. The online rosters posted by the better MD HS clubs confirm it. More facts: Skywalker’s Blue '25 has one player from Ashburn, VA and none from MoCo. Hero's Green '25 has two from up-county MoCo (they play for an Olney, MD high school where the drive to the MD clubs is likely more convenient). M&D Black '25 has zero from DMV. You already know this. You know DMV parents aren’t going to MD. Your kid is on a team with few if any other DMV kids. So what’s the motivation for you to mislead people here? [/quote]
