The best players on the team have traditionally also been the best teammates. The same is true this year. There will be malcontents that like to post on anonymous forums as that's where they live. Don't believe the haters. Believe the results.

I think the point the PP was just alluding to the toxic nature of the coach and not a comment on girls as teammates. New theory: the coach intentionally trauma bonds them to create a tight knit team and it has proven to lead to success.

The girls are generally pretty respectful of one another and good teammates. The toxic culture is more about the coaching, mental and emotional abuse, mind games, inconsistent treatment of players etc etc. there were 200 posts about this that got deleted.

100% they only lost by one goal and played man down! I’m rooting for SSSA to win it all and I got a kid at a different school!

In ISL AA, where are the lax girls the happiest win or lose? Coaching and culture? Could it be Bullis? I think so!

It is great to win but if your daughter needs therapy because of her coach, teammates, other parents- is it worth it?

Holton. The new coach is amazing as a person and a coach. She really develops them. The team is extremely happy and close.

Holton will be fighting a relegation battle for the next 4-5 years. Their success is measured by not being the worst AA team. High academic achievers would be better off at NCS or Potomac.

The weakest Capital 29 players are at NCS. SR, Visi, Holy Child, Potomac and Holton have the strongest. BIGGEST. TALLEST, FASTEST, AGILE.

Good Luck!

Thank you lacrosse expert. Potomac has a great program and NCS doesn't.

Holton has one year left before NCS over takes them. The NCS pipeline is strong.

Holton's site lists the records of their JV and MS teams. The very few teams they can beat are ISL A programs. NCS JV went undefeated and the MS teams had some big wins. The NCS pipeline is strong.

Is anyone challenging that? We know. Coach has done great recruiting— and being the capitol recruiting director as well doesn’t hurt. This whole conversation was about a lacrosse teams culture, as we know sssa and sr cultures (specifically sr) are toxic and it was asked which teams in the AA have a good lax culture. Holton’s name was thrown in for being a good culture. NCS is currently in A and another poster stated that its lax culture isn’t so great. For those two reasons NCS isn’t part of this conversation.

And is this one rabid NCS parent or a couple? All this hyping makes you look off. Show through actions next year. We are here for it and hope you have success…even the guy who had never heard of you until this thread.

I will join you in challenging. Nice to have NCS positioned for promotion, good for them. Will be a nice milestone for coach and program. Called her shot and hit it.

That said, this team just lost to Bishop Ireton big. They have lost to the real ISL AA teams them have played by wide margins as well. Let's see how they look in 2028 and take a break until then. Freshman dad, recommend you step away from the keyboard.

You mean the same Ireton that lost to Ryken?

Were they missing starters? Has Episcopal played BI?

I highly doubt that is the case. maybe 1 or 2, but 5?? I would double check your sources

There were in fact 5 freshmen playing yesterday. While not all 5 may have started, they were playing throughout the game until the end.

Previous comment said "Started" that is what I was questioning as being false. And they have 5 total 2029s on roster according to Hudl, 1 being a goalie. Is SR starting a frosh goalie?

Not only is she a freshman but she was also an attacker until last year.
