[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That Greene Turtle 2016 team out of DC is by invitation only -- no tryouts.  They basically pulled the best kids from Gonzaga, Prep and Landon together on one team.  [/quote]

No, that is not all of the best kids from those three schools.  The kids on that team played for Club Blue and stayed together.  But there are many other great players from those three schools who play for different clubs.[/quote]

Actually, the players came from four different middle school club teams -- Club Blue, Next Level, Madlax and Maryland Elite -- to form one 2016 team. [/quote]

In terms of numbers, thel core came from the Clue Blue team.[/quote]

Club Blue had 2-3 more players on the team than Next Level, but not sure I'd call it a "core" -- especially since Next Level was beating Club Blue pretty handily the previous year.  Anyway, the debate is silly because the real reason Greene Turtle 2016 succeeded is because everyone finally put idiotic lacrosse politics aside (Club Blue vs. Next Level vs. Madlax) and just let the best kids play together on one team.  The results:  Three championships at the most elite tournaments in the country, with wins over the vaunted Crabs and Dukes. Go DC lax!! [/quote]
