What do you mean “four top 30 recruits”?

You are the only one characterizing it that way; honest question - are you that dense that you don’t understand that if you are out your whole recruiting year with an ACL or other injury then it may impact your timeline? You call that “ underperforming” because girls are out hurt? You expect them to play anyway?

Trying to put a positive spin on your lack of knowledge and application of common sense, perhaps you are a younger team parent and just don’t get it?

Hero’s G 26 is the #5 ranked team as a result of its summer recruiting year performance. The team's active players, not injured ones out the "whole recruiting year," earned this position. The team has committed just four top 30 recruits, compared to other top ten clubs M&D (11) and Capital (8). Even Skywalkers Blue, ranked #21, has six top 30 recruits. An argument can be made Hero's 26 recruiting is underperforming.

For any younger parents watching all of this play out…. Please know that this process is hard. Please constantly remind your kids that nothing is guaranteed. Please remind them that it is okay if they decide not to play in college. None of this is easy. Everyone is very optimistic and congratulatory on this board but please know that if it works it took a lot and their are still plenty that are not done yet.

Add Hero Green Kennesaw State

Only a measly 3% of high school lacrosse players actually make it to play Division 1 in college. Seriously, let that sink in before you start tearing apart a family's choice or a player's decision to attend a particular school!

You are the only one characterizing it that way; honest question - are you that dense that you don’t understand that if you are out your whole recruiting year with an ACL or other injury then it may impact your timeline? You call that “ underperforming” because girls are out hurt? You expect them to play anyway?

Whoa, didn't expect this type of repsonse. And I don't believe the question was for you anyway. It seems your perspective is that injuries played the largest part in the underperformance to date. Hope those players get better.

I sure hope no one is making any commitment based on anything on this board! That would be absolutely insane and ridiculous. You must think lacrosse families and players are stupid if they would base any of their decisions off this board! 🙃
It is OK and perfectly fine for players to decline offers if the school is not a good fit.

What school? It helps if you know a commit has publicly posted their commitment --name the school so I can verify it.

Wow. So sensitive. Both questions were asked in good faith and did not target any kids. Maybe simply replying “I don’t know if I agree they underperformed, but were you aware that the team had suffered significant injuries?” would have been a reasonable response.

No one thinks heroes green is under performing which is why no one answered the ridiculous question the first time. You must be a troll. I am a parent on a different team and my daughter is friends with several girls on Hero green. We are very proud of them. Many of the capital players and other area players have all played against these girls since they were 9-10 years old. So stop with the nonsense that they're under performing. All these teams have done incredibly well.

Fully agree with the above. Also think injuries played a part - over five players had significant injuries, with some coming back from acl this summer and others still out during that time.

You seem to have an idea, so are injuries the main reason they're underperforming in your view?

Learn to count it's only 17 left! There will be some later commitments because some of the players are interested in D3 so that's a different timeline.
