[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DM score?[/quote]

DM lost 13-7 to St Ignatius.  Once again out coached and the offense is horrible.  If not for Matt Beachley there would be no offensive life.  Close defense played well but DM spends so much time playing defense.  The SSDM for DM are bad and every team that plays DM should exploit the SSDM with ease.  This is possible the worst  DeMatha lacrosse team I have ever seen.  This is what no recruiting will do for a program.  No real 26 or 27 recruits.  [/quote]

Having every offensive play run through one person is not coaching -if anything it is destructive for the team for two reasons- if another player gets the ball they want to be a hero so maybe they get some attention and secondly, opposition shuts down  the offense by defending one person. This isn’t rocket science.  The face off kid is a ‘26 so this  statement isnt true. DM definitely has a problem when they are not building up each player but instead highlighting one and believing one can carry the entire team. These guys looked good in the fall- offensively and defensively- - so it isn’t the kids- it comes from top down. Toxic.

The problem is the coaching.  No real development and in game adjustment is not happening.  I didn’t read it as not having any 26 and 27 recruits,  just not many and not developing them.  The 26 fogo is not really given a chance.  Dude battles all the time.  They pull him when the wing play is nonexistent.  It is sad to see the program in this state with DeMatha’s history.  Not sure how you fix the problem when you are not getting recruits because players really don’t want to go to DeMatha in general.[/quote]
