[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are the top 5 high school lacrosse teams in the Metro area?[/quote]

None of the teams in the immediate DC area are at the Baltimore level, but Landon, Prep and Gonzaga are the local elite for mens.

[b]For girls it's SSSA and Viz a distant second. [/b]

I wouldn't say Visitation is a distant second behind SSSA - locally they are #1 and #2. Regionally, both are behind McDonogh in Baltimore. Players from SSSA and Visi teams go on to play at top schools like UNC, Stanford, Yale.[/quote]

Over the past decade you could say SSSAS in a league of their own for the girls, but the gap has closed.  Visitation won the league in 2012, first time in 15 years or so anyone but he Saints had won.

For boys, the top DC area teams (Gonzaga, Prep, Landon) do actually compare favorably with the Baltimore teams although Baltimore still comes out ahead most years.[/quote]

Gonzaga has emerged as a top program, but [u]as a whole[/u], the DC top tier teams have not come out ahead of the Baltimore top tier teams in any recent year.  There have been noteworthy wins here and there, but the cream of the MIAA A has been superior to what the IAC and WCAC can offer.

That said, lacrosse in this area (especially in NoVA) has been getting better and better.[/quote]
