[quote=Anonymous]The only thing STJ has going for it is it’s cheaper than the good privates. But you get what you pay for and it’s unlikely to get the legitimate lax players who also want an excellent education and top alum network for more than a couple years.  Most people who pay anything for high schoool want to feel like they are getting at least a bit of prestige and that’s not going to be STJ.  Plus All the crowing over last year doesn’t take into account the impacts of COVID so whatever. We shall see how they do in spring of 2023. That will be most telling.

Landon has an actual $10,000 scholarship that they use to pay a portion of lax players’ tuitions.  Plus, back in the day Landon was known for “finding” financial aid for lax players who didn’t really need it.

Bullis bought players for several years. That’s how they won  for a couple of years - bought themselves a lax championship. That’s now over with new, legitimate headmaster.

Not sure about GP and Gonzaga as far as mitigating players’ tuition but they seem to have fought over the same players for about a decade - mostly the top lax players coming out of Mater Delay - and the other Catholic parochials.  GP is legitimately a great school so they shouldn’t have a problem continuing to attract top talent. I’d bet on GP long term personally. It’s the most reputable Catholic with the best campus and alum connections. GZ can go either way but tons of bad press last few years along with crap location. They too though have a strong alum network but but as prestigious as GP.

It’s now STJs turn and they are a much cheaper school to start with so will be able to get the players who can’t or don’t want to pay for high school. As evidenced by the examples above, however that won’t last but so long. [/quote]
