[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]RU systematically cheats in this "CUP."  At least the scouts were there to witness the destruction.  Let's all drink the champagne.[/quote]

:cry: Exactly 👍 check the fields assigned to RU teams. [/quote]

Also check how RU gets in highest bracket, but the two ECNL teams that beat them during season go in second bracket. [/quote]

How about RU 09 schedule?[/quote]

Is the suggestion that they put themselves in the highest bracket and then include only weaker teams in that bracket?[/quote]

If you looking for good competition, the other bracket was definitely better.   If you're looking to win it all, then the other bracket was better. There was definitely home field advantage for RU included the times and dates that they played. [/quote]

Something was up with the way they placed Bethesda across the board, and maybe you are pointing at it. In the 09s they never should have been in the top bracket. And in the younger ages, the BSC RL teams were also placed way too high.[/quote][/quote]

The Bethesda 09s were put in the top bracket to make it easier for a mediocre team to win.  The RI team has declined significant since last year.  They continue to be weak.  The referees in this tournament also were heavily biased toward RU.  This does these girls no good and actually weakens their team.  Just look at the overall record of the RU teams as they get older.  They become less competitive

I took a look at the RU records as they become older. Here are the two oldest groups. They look fairly competitive to me. I'm not an RU fan but they are a well run club and do have quite a bit of success.

Girls:
07 - #7 in Mid-Atlantic with record of 7-4-3 (the weakest of the 4 older teams across RU's boys and girls)
06/05 - #2 in Mid-Atlantic with a record of 10-2 and only one draw away from being tied for first (fairly competitive)

Boys
07 - #1 in Mid-Atlantic with 11-3-1 record this fall season (fairly competitive)
06/05 - Currently #5 in Mid-Atlantic with a 9-2-4 record and defending national champions (fairly competitive in arguably the best ECNL group of teams in the country over the last 3 years)[/quote]
