Other decent 6a matchups (based on records):

Westfield 4-4 at Chantilly 6-3
Battlefield 6-2 at Patriot 6-4
Mclean 4-5 at 4-2 Herndon
Centreville 4-3 at Oakton 4-3


There is no "someone has to win" game today, but 0-4 Justice plays 1-3 Mount Vernon and that's a great chance for them to get a win.

Langley’s goalie is one of the best players in the state.

Nothing stronger than a Father's love.

not even a crazy opinion, the kids got one of the best save percentage

He is in the bottom half of the teams that have bothered to submit save figures to max preps

PVI was begging for him

Sure they were, goalie dad.

Good goalie? Yes. Underwhelming performance in some games? Also yes. No need to toot your own horn #3(langley)

I think these are the only real contenders. Indy is a clear favorite, but I think Robo and Yorktown are both heating up right now.

Because "LaxNumbers sucks", it's current top 6 ratings:

1) Independence (87.21)
2) Robinson (86.85)
3) Cosby (86.48)
4) Battlefield (85.51)
5) Madison (85.42)
6) Yorktown (83.2)


Same top 6, slightly different order, you can see the clustering of 4/5/6.

Robinson's schedule rating (82.6) and Madison's (82.42) are tops of the best 6. Lowest are Cosby (76.88) which makes sense geographically, Independence (78.34), and Battlefield (79.64).

oooh, that will be a good game to track.

Urbana vs. Riverside will be a great matchup today. Two of DMVs top Publics.

I do think defense wins championships. 1,2,3 seem to have the defense units that could get it done. As we get closer to June, games will be closer and probably the first team to 10 wins games. Robinson defense looks pretty good but so does Indy and Madison. Goalie play might be the X factor.

X Factors, but not the ones your looking for, I suspect:


1. Indy - Can they stay disciplined the whole season?
2. Madison - Is "good enough", enough to be special?
3. Robo - Can they score against a good team?
4. YT - One trick pony in #3, can anyone else step up?
5. Battlefield - See Madison
6. Cosby - Are they ready for primetime or just the bully of the south?

HM- Langley - Did "the choke" happen starting in week 1 or are they going to gag in the playoffs again?

Another goalie parent here and we also heard from them as well as one of the other Catholic schools and one of the MD privates so I believe the better teams are always thinking about goalie depth and may have been in touch, but parents are kidding themselves if they think their special boy the only one or reading too much into it.

Interesting story, my kid is not good at lacrosse and PVI was begging for him too. Pretty sure it was the lacrosse coach. Weird right?

Someone wrote up a report on the previous page I believe.
