[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is so peculiar about lacrosse that B team talent does not develop as a child matures?  Are the skills just so basic that the ceiling is so low that it doesn't matter if one gets bigger/stronger/faster?  It can't be that A teams all develop more physically than B teams, so physical growth would seem to be a factor that could move you up (or down).[/quote]

I didn't think you'd have an answer.[/quote]

The first poster is right. I know boys who have improved dramatically or grown dramatically and moved way up the hierarchy, and boys who were super stars early on who have faded away due to size or relying too much on natural talent and not working hard.

Lacrosse is like any other sport, the 9 year old super stars are often not still super stars at 16, 17, 18, and lots of kids who were mediocre in 6th and 7th are the starters in high school.  I can think of several boys at Landon and G'town Prep and Gonzaga right now who fit this description (starters and non).[/quote]
