[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m fascinated more by the fact that M&D and Hero’s have so few players on D1 championship teams. [/quote]

There are 100s of teams that send girls to D1, it’s not surprising at all when you only pick 4 years. Plenty of m&d all americans this year, not many from
 Heros, but that will change over the next couple of years. [/quote]

It was a five year look back (not four). And sorry but it is surprising -- M&D and Hero's consistently rank as the nation's top high school club teams yet they aren't sending players to teams that win it all. One from Hero's over five years? Just four from M&D? Those numbers should be way higher.  What happened? [/quote]

One, those numbers are wrong, and two,  it’s just the cycle of success. Sometimes maryland players dominate a class or two and commit to eventual winners, and others are classes that are relatively poor compared to other years. Also, teams like BC and NW have been super successful lately, and they are just schools that rarely recruit MD players. BC is almost exclusively NE and LI, and NW is a true national recruiting power who pulls kids in from all over. It will come back around, the MD players from recent classes are super strong.[/quote]

The numbers stand and are correct. Why? Because I went though every roster of every national championship team over the past five years and found out where those players played club. I did the homework. You didn’t.

And it’s not just “a cycle or two” - it’s five years of data. Easy to say “it will come around” but the trend isn’t trending, just like your math isn’t mathing. [/quote]Why aren't Godine & Levy both listed for M&D Black and do you think that's the only number that's wrong?[/quote]
