[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looks like Winter Escape wasn’t a good showing for the Wolves.  Didn’t win one game.  Warhawks, Shorebyrds, Alpha, Hymax did well or decent.

Don’t know what’s happening with the Wolves. Some say the intensity isn’t there anymore in practices and commitment is lacking from the players and some say the coaching is inconsistent.  They use to be strong but these past couple of years they have been falling to a mid tier team.  It’s disappointing to see this trend.  Hope they can get back to being a strong team in the area once again.

Warhawks continue to be a strong team.  Hear their coaching is stellar.  Alpha seems to be hit or miss depending on team assigned.

To be fair, they (like most teams) probably sent those kids who are not committed. That's kind of the point of this event. There were not a ton of local teams even there. Even WC only sent 1 team (I think) and their top, top players were not on it. [/quote]

Wolves is a small club so it’s not like they have that many players to begin with but if they are playing other noncommitted caliber teams you would think they would be on par to win a game atleast. Also, I heard they took some their u16 players who want to be committed this summer so hopefully they are talented so there should have been some strength there.

The club needs to reassess what’s working and and what’s not because it seems like a lot more things aren’t working than are working.  [/quote]

I think this is a harsh assessment, frankly. And I have no association with Wolves. [/quote]

Why is it harsh?  If you look at their win loss at showcases these past couple of years in both u16/19, they aren’t doing well especially their offensive scoring.  They have strong individual players who have been recruited to colleges on their current u19 team but as a team in both u16/19 they don’t gel. Why is that?  Other teams have players recruited to similar or higher ranked colleges but do gel and win at these tournaments or atleast win a few games.  Something is a miss.  They aren’t the same club they use to be and I hope they can get back to be a strong club again.[/quote]
