[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How did the seeding match up with the results?  Any surprises?[/quote]

For U11s, probably should have put a few second division teams in the first division (and moved some of the first divisions down).  Odd to see Richmond Strikers Elite and Arlington White in a second division in a fairly weak field.  NLS Ajax also could have been in top division. 
 Otherwise, top teams were pretty much as predicted.  PWSI looked good - that team has looked strong for a few years and they really did well in this particular tourney.[/quote]

The parents of the U11 Arlington White were griping that Richmond should have been in the top Bracket...which they should have been. 
But they weren't complaining when they beat Bethesda's 4th team. [/quote]

They will complain about anything.[/quote]

I think they probably should.  This weekend, U11 White just beat PWSI 4-3, which beat U11 Red last week 3-0.[/quote]

Did the U11s lose some players? They had been one of the best teams in the area over the last few years, and seem to be having a lot of trouble this year. [/quote]

They have a great white team so players are not the problem. Development is an issue. Kick and run is harder in 9 v 9. Throw and run is harder when you lose a goalkeeper with a cannon. All those years spent doing both means your defenders and midfielders have a tough time retaining possession. And playing a lot of weak opponents in the CCL does not help. [/quote]
