[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I've seen too many lopsided games where 1-2 MLSNext players dominate the game and it's unfair to the rest of the kids.[/quote]

I call BS.  All the MLSN players are sitting on the bench because stupid Chemistry teachers want to play physical, over-the-top bullyball.

At least that's what DCUM told me.  <rolleyes>

I call BS because very very few mlsnext players choose to play HS soccer.  It’s too sh@tty.  There isn’t enough time and the risk of injury is great.  Perhaps some of the kids that ride the bench on their mlsnext team might, but the top players aren’t.  A kid serious about playing at the next level will avoid HS play.[/quote]

In VA there were a whole bunch of them playing last spring. I don’t know that any DCU kids were playing, but definitely did in past years. There is an 18 yo who is now on Loudoun United. He was a top DCU Academy player and he played HS a couple of years ago and used to play all over the place - indoor, guest play, pick up. He is a baller…and ballers want to ball. [/quote]

He's 18 and "played a couple of years ago".  That is the pattern if they play at all that I see.  They might do it Freshmen, sophomore year when demands are less and academics aren't ramped up yet, but the ones at our school focused solely on mlsnext in their recruiting years/jr and sr year.
