[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Visi at Maryvale

SR at SPSG

Predictions?[/quote]

There is an interesting conversation going on at BOTC about Maryvale having too many top players, and asking why talented players keep choosing Maryvale given how many top players are in the classes ahead of them.  There are 24 college commits--20 D1 commits--just in the Junior and Senior classes. SPSG, by comparison, has 16 total and 14 D1; McDonogh has 12 D1.  In the ISL/WCAC, only two schools are in double figures for '25 and '26 commits: SSSAS with 13 D1 and GC with 10 D1 commits in the uppercases.  Even SR, Potomac, and Visi are at 8 or fewer; one-third of Maryvale's total.

When you further note that Maryvale had at least a couple of Freshman make Varsity, it is clear that there is a completely different talent and depth level there.  Imagine the tryouts and practices.  I know they have a bunch of haters because they haven't done it before, and the blue bloods at SPSG and McDonogh will smack back with some quality over quantity post, etc., but Maryvale is my pick to win the IAAM this year and next if they can keep their Freshman and Sophomores from transferring.[/quote]

They kept 34 kids on varsity. So no, I can't imagine those practices....unless they are highly organized and have several assistant coaches helping out, I'm guessing there's a lot of standing around for many of those girls. No coach wants to deal with 34 girls (and their parents egos) on the roster, I have to imagine someone's arm was twisted in the creation of that roster. There's no questioning their depth and that they are an IIAM championship contender, but in the end it's their 17 or so best against anyone else's. Their goalie is probably the biggest difference maker.
