Anonymous wrote:The 05 gril's soccer teams in the area have been consistent with Pipeline, Loudoun, MRM Rush and Bethesda ECNL leading the way. I just found out that the past 12-18 months have seen plenty of changes.
- MRM Rush is no longer together (Coach left for Bethesda and took his best players with him after Spring 2019)
- ODFC/FCV disbanded after Spring 2019 when coach retired (Players went to ECNL and DA)
- Loudoun Red left for FCV after Fall 2017
- Half of McLean's 05 team left for Arlington and WS/MS DA after Spring 2018
- DC Stoddert lost top players to McLean and Arlington DA after Spring 2018
- Calvert left in Spring 2019 for A3
- MSI/MSC has five teams at 05 age level, including the old DC Stoddert 05 team
- AC Cugini folded at end of Spring 2018
Any other changes impacting this age group? Will BRYC and Loudoun continue to struggle? Will Pipeline remain the top club or is FCV the top club?
The ODFC team broke up after the spring of 2018. Some of the 06's moved to FCV DA, 05s went to Loudoun ECNL or WS/MU DA. The remainder merged with the former FCV 05 team that did not make DA. They were still pretty good.
End of spring 2019, the rest left. 2 to McLean, several to Loudoun none made FCVs DA. Mostly all new players for an 06/05 team at FCV.
