omg the last one, born January 2008 reclass to 2028. what a joke! he will be 20 when he graduates high school! Many of them will be 20 the summer after high school graduation. Can you imagine your kid being 18 their 10th grade year🤣🤣.[/quote]

I love this video! Lacrosse is nuts. I have a 26 too, and this kid is older than my older son and plays against my youngest son. If my 26 played against 28's, it would be stupid. I see it every day in the backyard for gosh sakes! I will say this, it won't pay off in the end. Fast risers early rarely make fast risers late, when it matters. I am seeing it this summer w my 26. Work hard. Improve skill. Get good grades. If the kid is on age and beating up on holdbacks, college coaches notice.[/quote]

Inside Lacrosse i believe just wrote up this player.  "A [b]tall[/b], [b]filled [/b]out lefty who can play up top or down low, he [b]caught my eye [/b]with an interesting fade during which he fed a cutter in the middle. Can play with [b]more physicality[/b] than [b]others his age[/b]; ([b]DAH they are not his age he is older!![/b]) he bodied a defender on the ride for a caused turnover. Projects as a quarterback who can facilitate and offense. I’d like to see him further develop his off hand."  Maybe IL should add disclaimer (holdback/reclass), regardless the kid could not bring it as a 27 and elected to reclass but in the end as the PP stated it catches up to them when on age kids beat up on holdbacks, college coaches notice.

Like it or not, this is accurate.  Like everything in the life of an adolescent boy, self-confidence and mental game mean a lot.  If a player builds confidence by going up against kids a year younger and makes plays like those, it gets in his head and becomes how he sees himself as a player.   that is why so many players do hold back.  The pool of players hoping to get recruited in any given class is roughly 1/3 holdbacks, 1/3 super-athletic on-age kids who can run with the holdbacks, and 1/3 kids who have fallen behind and are going to have a hard time getting recruited.
