[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op- best private for your daughter is Potomac if you go that route- it’s really the only game in town for where you are locations. They have a strong girls varsity soccer team (just won the conference) which is coached by ECNL FVU coaches and proximity wise it’s the closest. It’s tough to get in so start process now. And they like sports kids so maybe use that.

Club wise for 2010 FVU is your best option. The merger is quite messy but 2010 team is very strong best of your options. It’s a very good team so will be tough to make especially after merger but they have the top college placement track record for girls without question.

You don’t want to be driving to Bethesda 4 nights a week from arlington  in rush hour [/quote]

They do not have the best college placement over the last three years unless your target school is Howard.[/quote]

Ooof.... things you only say when you're annon. 🙄[/quote]

Georgetown, UVA, Penn, ND all the Ivies. I mean really this is all public and available to search so there is no dispute. They by far have the best record for college placement in DMV. You may not like that fact but it’s true.

They don’t have the best 2024 or 2025 class. Get out of the past. It’s 2024. Do better MYS fanboy.[/quote]

Clearly somebody didn’t bother to click the link and look at 24-25 commits. Lazy. [/quote]

Nice site, who put that together?  Do the other local clubs have something similar?  So many of their websites are terrible. If you comp Union (Fairfax County), Bethesda (Montgomery County), and FCV (Loudoun County) on soccerwire’s commitments page, Bethesda and Union have commits at similar types of schools (generally strong academically) but Union has more of them, FCV has better overall quality than Union from an athletic perspective (but they both have commits at strong soccer programs), Union has better overall quality than FCV from an academic pespective (but they both have commits at academically strong universities), and FCV has more commits overall. I’m sure soccerwire’s data set is incomplete, so maybe better data would change the conclusions, but I’m most impressed by FCV as I suspect the population Union is pulling from has many non-soccer players going to the same great universities, so query how much of Union’s academic placement success is Union and how much is the McLean zip code, and I don’t see any reason to believe that the population FCV is pulling from is somehow inherently advantaged athletically. But all three programs are sending a lot of kids to great universities, and I’m sure folks from Arlington, NVA, and VDA will have something to say about their programs’ success. [/quote]
