Loudoun vs Mclean

Winner: Loudoun


I would have thought they would have put Arlington and Loudoun (the two strongest teams in the field) on other sides of the bracket. But my guess is they will play two games and then A1 will play B2 and B1 will play A2 in the semis with the winner of each moving on to a championship.

I think that matters because I've seen lots of tournaments where two closely matched teams play twice, and it is almost always a split decision, so the order in which you play matters for who ends up champion.

If they do play A1 v B2 and B1 v A2, I am going to guess Loudoun plays Calvert and Arlington plays McLean with Loudoun meeting Arlington in the final, which I think is a pick'em given that it will be the second meeting of the two...

Given that the host is guaranteeing turf fields for all matches, I wouldn't want it to be too large. After all, it was the failure of BSC to provide quality fields across the board that lead to last year's issues … not that Muldoon's and nearby venues were great in prior years.


Is this this up to date? My DS team is not on the list but we have been told by our club we are playing in it. When will the schedule be released as well? Cant find any info on the Mclean club website or the gotsport site either.


I wouldn’t worry too much as our DD plays for McLean and our team wasn’t even on the list of accepted teams until a few days ago. And we’ve known we would play in it since August. Probably still catching up from the Discovery Cup.

Same with both of my sons' teams. They are not on the 'teams accepted list'. One team won their bracket and the other team made it to the Finals in this tournament last year so I don't see why they wouldn't be accepted, but they aren't on the list.

This was the only tournament they were going to do this Fall.


oops. I am talking about Bethesda--not McLean tournament.

Many times for tournaments like this the schedule comes out 1-2 weeks before the event.

Have brackets been sent out yet? Or is there any info on when more info is forthcoming? Their website just says "coming soon" for everything


The tournament is 3 weeks (girls) or 4 weeks away(boys). A schedule 2 weeks out is what I would expect.



AT this point it's 2 1/2 weeks out and they haven't even posted a list of teams that have "applied" to the tournament site.


The lists have been published for a while.

Yes. That's why McLean teams make up 25% of the registration. Last year McLean teams went to NC Showcase. This year they are doing their own tiny tournament. Sinking ship....


not that tiny when you have Loudoun, and Arlington in it. whats the date does it run same time as Bethesda tournament?


They play each other all of the time. Boring.
