[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If these stats are right this breakdown is pretty interesting. M&D Black had 15 players who either went uncommitted, didn’t go D1, or went to non top 20 programs. That’s stunning. That they only had 2 go top 20 is also surprising.

That Capital had 7 and Skywalkers had 8 go top 20, and both clubs had 13 players go uncommitted / non D1 / non top 20, that’s revealing too. Hard to argue that Capital isn’t competing with the Md clubs in sending players to good lax schools. [/quote]

To use a term earlier in this thread, let's not cherry pick here.  Every year is different.  M&D has the # 1 2022 recruit, Arguably the # 1 or # 2 Goalie at 2024 etc.  To jump to conclusions saying Capital is as good or better than the top MD clubs for producing talent and recruiting is a far stretch.  Does Capital do a good job at recruiting, yes.  There was also an earlier question about how many AU pros came up through the Capital ranks.  I haven't seen that answered. [/quote]

Tend to agree with this post. Historically, Capital has done well with getting their players recruited. It was impressive to hear from the 2023 CLC parents (at least the Blue, don't know about Orange) how coordinated the recruiting efforts were for this class. And the preparation showed in their results. The numbers presented on each program are interesting, but it's one year. I don't know for sure but didn't M&D sell their program. Maybe this impacted the 2023 class. But to make a leap from one CLC recruiting class to now MD players will want to come to CLC is a big one.

On a national level, the 2024 class is considered weaker than the 2023. This may work in CLCs favor given how organized they seem to be around recruiting. The clubs preparation could put them in a good position for what may be fewer spots if colleges take smaller classes based on the perceived talent pool. But, if the talent is not considered as strong in the 2024 class as lacrosse pundits have suggested there may be a drop-off in commitments in this class and for CLC. We will see in short time. Regardless, it's a big stretch to say MD players want to come to CLC based on one class.

Good luck to all players in September.[/quote]

Indeed we'll know soon enough how the 24s perform, and that will be a good signal of where the future is heading. What the stat breakdown of the 23s does disprove, however, is the claim that Capital only sends kids to good academics. Last year's class showed the best mix of ivies and top 20 programs of any club in MD or VA.[/quote]
