[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where is the M&D DC dad that was trying to convince everyone not to try out for Capital? [/quote]

Probably looking at the American Select roster and seeing 10 m&d dc girls and a measly 3 BLC girls on the roster and thinking why would we want to combine with a less talented team? Maybe the BLC parents should bring their kids over to m&d dc tryouts? [/quote]

This is comical - if you are the parent of one of those 10 and you do not try out for Capital your kid will have you to blame. [/quote]

Maybe. Or maybe the good BLC players will want to leave the #25 ranked BLC team that will make up most of the Cap Blue team for the #9 team that is collecting better players each year.

Cap Blue 25 was awesome, and the 26 team is great, but the 27s and 28s stink.  With the program headed in the wrong direction, it might make some parents reconsider the old Cap Blue model and some top BLC girls might jump ship. Prior to this summer that had never even been in question, which is why Cap Blue/BLC parents are on here coping constantly.[/quote]

Back in 2020-2022, there was only one option in the secondary market opportunity available next to Capital for NOVA. That team was the Cardinals, who attracted some really good players but did not necessarily match the Cap Blue model. They were a place where they could land and play some very good lacrosse. The 2022 team actually played Cap Blue in a tournament and only lost by 2 goals. But a number of factors occurred, including Pride and Stars adding HS teams, MA YJ coming into the frame, and then they were bought by Perfect Performance, the death nail. BLC could try to fill the gap of a secondary top tier program, but it is hard to get momentum and mass of talent with so much other stuff available and parents opting and able to move at the drop of a hat...and Capital gutting all the developed talent from the youth program. Girls at the younger ages are looking at the youth teams as to whether they can get them onto Capital. Good luck to BLC in overcoming those obstacles.[/quote]
