Agree with above. I have generally been a “reclass no big deal” person. But that may be because I have been watching 22’s - where the top 50-100 could easily compete a year up. Watching these 23s, even those that have reclassed, we are seeing a huge drop off. Maybe they should reclass again?

The reality is that the 23 class as a whole across all the teams can’t touch the level of the 22 class. Some good players but not comparable even with all of the reclassed players. These guys would be avg if they stayed with their grad class. Hence why they reclassed.

For all the hype and attention Ty Xanders has given the 2023 class, they sure as hell don't look anything special. One general observation is Prep doesn't look remotely as athletic as they have been in years past.

To only score 2 goals in an entire game is concerning and to not even score any goals in the 2nd half when the coaches can make adjustments, is even more concerning. Take away the Episcopal transfer, and the Lil Hoyas become the mini Hoyas.

Beat Gilman on Thursday and Prep should find their mojo

Seem Prep play twice now.
Defense big but not very athletic. They try and junk it up playing zone but teams just pick them apart. Teams with speed will have to trouble scoring.
Offense. Attackman must but use to playing against smaller kids. They just try and bull rush the goal from GLE without any success. Ball movement was sloppy and a lot of self inflicted turnovers.
Team did not have a lot of heart or hustle on ground balls.
Maybe reading to much IL magazine and their BS rankings
Have gone to their heads
0-2 hopefully the season is not all ready lost.

Actually they are fun to listen to. BL fans were full of excuses before, during and after the game yesterday.

They have a HOF coach.


That and some aren’t paying attention.

There are no rules in the IAC... essentially its a gentleman's handshake between the IAC athletic directors.

I still think it will come down between Bullis or Landon or GP.

The Saints will keep it very interesting.


All Bullis right now.

St. Mary’s has 21 seniors vs Prep’s 8 (most of whom don’t play). St. Mary’s also has 18 college commits to Prep’s 10. Prep lost 17 seniors last year, 13 of which were college commits. They have a young team (despite all the false jokes about holdbacks) with many sophomores playing. Give them time. They are basically a new team with only a week of practice under their belt. They definitely need to do some major work on their offensive game and goal tending, but I predict they will work hard and claw their way back.


Knowing St Mary's has 20+ seniors on the roster, it will be interesting to see if they can make a deep run in the MIAA playoffs. They had a talented team last Spring but then faded down the stretch due to a COVID outbreak on the team.

Save the non-sense about GP being a young team this Spring. Prep people continue to boast about how talented their 2023 class is but it hasn't proved squat in the past two games. In all seriousness, GP's best offensive player, the Episcopal transfer, shouldn't even be allowed to play in the IAC after this Spring season due to burning his eligibility.

I do agree with you, Prep I'm sure will figure it out and will be a much better team as the season plays out.




Predicted before the season started. The DC dogs were making excuses this fall about losing games. Knew they weren’t ready to be winners during the spring HS season. Everyone plays a short bench and brings their best. They will learn

Bullis
SSSA
Landon
Prep
