[quote=Anonymous][quote=RantingSoccerDad][quote=Anonymous][quote=RantingSoccerDad][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=RantingSoccerDad]I hadn't really thought about this until it came up in the PAC thread of all places, but is the DMV failing to produce good players?

The only player I could find who has been near the men's national team recently is Bill Hamid. The WNT is a bit better -- Andi Sullivan, Midge Purce, Emily Fox and Ali Krieger.

SoCal is always going to be the biggest source of players. But the DMV is trailing Colorado and Atlanta, among other places.

Are we doing something wrong? Or is this what we would expect?[/quote]

You need to do a bit more research.[/quote]

Agreed.  There are many more but that would not support his "expert" analysis. [/quote]

Name them.[/quote]

Joe Gyau, Jeremy Ebobisse, Gideon Zelalem, and Nicholas Gioachinni have all spent some time with the national team. [/quote]

Not recently for Gyau, though it's unfair that injuries have held him back.

Ebobisse is at least on the radar. Zelalem seems to have fallen out -- his career has declined quite a bit.

Gioachinni wasn't here that long, but the DMV can claim partial credit if you like.[/quote]

The DMV area is fourth overall, behind only California, Texas and NY/NJ, according to actual research, and not your hunches.[/quote]
