[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hopefully Arlington will be able to expand since DC..ah..[b]Loudoun [/b]United is a non-starter.[/quote]

Perhaps acquire a better reputation for developing players first?  The younger boys teams have tended to fizzle when the days of 7 v 7 kick-and-run end.[/quote]

[b]I think DC United is fielding some pretty strong teams at the moment[/b] but I anticipate that once they make the move to Loundoun, their player pool will decrease significantly.  That will be a major boost to the Bethesda, Arlington, VDA, and even Baltimore Armour.[/quote]

LOL.  Strong teams?

The U14s are mediocre at best:  5-4-4, +1 GD (19GF to 18GA) 
 
After that it's all down hill.

While the above is accurate, it’s a bit misleading in that DCU typically pushes, say, their best 03 players up to the U19 DA squad...and same for earlier age groups (with many of their best players moving up to expedite development).

U15s: 2nd to last in the DA Cup (http://www.ussoccerda.com/sam/standings/ss/schedule.php?v=3&divisionID=NDQwMzM5), winless in the GA Cup
Overall record:  3-6-2, GD= -17 (18GF to 35GA)

U17s:  Tied for last in the DA Cup (http://www.ussoccerda.com/sam/standings/ss/schedule.php?v=3&divisionID=NDQwMjk5), also winless in the GA Cup
Overall record: 2-8-1, GD = -8 (11GF to 19GA)

U19s:  Tied for 2nd to last in the DA Cup (http://www.ussoccerda.com/sam/standings/ss/schedule.php?v=3&divisionID=NDM5MjM5) 
Overall record:   3-7-1, GD -16 (17 GF to 33 GA)

Combined record of U15-U19 after 33 games:   8 wins, 21 losses, 4 draws, with a goal difference of -41.

Yeah, they're pretty awesome alright.
