[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The conclusion you should takeaway from OP’s post is that clubs like Solar are the top because they develop players prepared to play at the highest level. They have more players capable of making an impact than most other players and those players receive offers to Power 5 schools, which are more capable of offering scholarships. [/quote]

Jesus, what is with the love of Solar? They are in freakin Texas, what do they have to do with local clubs?

Solar is huge, like PDA, that doesn’t mean development, that means monopoly of the best players in the area. [/quote]

Per OP's post, the question is what is Solar and these other clubs listed doing to produce high numbers of players who are going to Power 5. It isn't a monopoly when you have several clubs from the same metro area producing this many players. Even if you combined FCV, McLean and Bethesda, you would not reach 20 girls going to the Power 5, including several that are on the YNT.  Sorry but this is more than a monopoly. Maybe it is the weather. Maybe the area culture is more competitive (Sorry but Dallas has fewer snowflakes than DC). And PDA sent 51 girls to play in college, including 35 to DI and 12 to Power 5 programs. Weather is not a differentiating factor but others things are like training and culture. [/quote]
