[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nearly 14 pages into this thread, no one has addressed the elephant in the room for this article.

How did a girl on the M&D B team make the U16 national team?  And yes she is the only B team player on the team.

[b]Is M&D discriminating against her and unfairly keeping her on the B team?   [/b]

Or is US lacrosse putting a less talented player on its national team to increase diversity? [/quote]

That is a really serious accusation, and completely unsupported from anything in the article, and goes against what everybody knows about travel sports.  Teams play to win, period.  [/quote]

It's a legit point.  M&D had only 3 other players on the team, one of whom was an attacker.   Is M&D is keeping a national player on their B team that is a legitimate question to ask.[/quote]

She made american select as well, over several M&D black midfielders.   not accusing M&D of bias, but something feels off.[/quote]

She didn't play midfield at AS, she made it as a defender....  Maybe, just maybe, she's better at defense than midfield.[/quote]
Lebron James is playing center currently. He has also played Point Guard.  That doesn’t that is the position he should only play.  A player will understand the game more if they understand what it’s like to play each position and if they are capable of playing them all, it’s bad for their development to limit them.  The team/coach would be limiting their growth [/quote]
