[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]What is the point? Stop trying to insert Holton into the conversation, they are not at the same level as Visi & SSSA when it comes to lacrosse.[/quote]

And Visitation is nowhere near Holton Arms when it comes to academics. [/quote]

+1000

I would take the great academics and very strong (even if not top two) lacrosse any day over Visi and SSSA.[/quote]

First, Holton's academics are not that much better than Visi's.  Both regularly send many girls to top colleges and universities, AND in the context of this thread and conversation, Visi sends significantly more girls to play lacrosse at Ivies and other top schools than Holton does, by a looong shot.  Second, Holton is not a "very strong lacrosse" program.  It is mediocre at best.  SSSAS and Visi have nationally lacrosse recognized programs.  Holton isnt even a minor player.  Its a nonentity.[/quote]

Why so harsh?  "Mediocre" and "nonentity"?  Sounds like someone's kid didn't get into Holton.

Visi sends [b]significantly [/b]more girls to play lacrosse at Ivies top school than Holton does, by a [b]looong [/b]shot?  Let's see.  Visi had 3 D1 commits in the 2017 class; Harvard, Brown and Occidental. Holton had 1; William and Mary.  For the 2018 class, Visi has 2, Yale and Georgetown.  Holton has 2, Stanford and Johns Hopkins.  For 2019, Visi has 3, Notre Dame, Virginia Tech, and Fairfield.  Holton has 2, Harvard and UC Davis.  I wouldn't say either school sends a significant amount of girls to play lacrosse in college, nor would I say that Visi beats Holton by a [b]looong shot[/b].

Both are good schools.  Holton has the edge academically, and Visi has the edge with lacrosse.[/quote]

What about SSSAS?? they have more D1 commits than anyone...not to mention they are going to very difficult academic schools too. In the 2018 class; Navy, Virginia Tech, UC Davis, and two going to UVA. In the 2019 class; Princeton, UPenn, Columbia, UVA. In the 2020 class; UNC[/quote]

Just saying, Holton did beat SSSAS!  Holton has become a little bit of a lacrosse school, with very strong academics.  Nice combination![/quote]
