I must have missed something or did I not see and Cap goalies listed as 4 or 5 star so really how top notch can they be …
This must be so hard for you. Be well.

Take your 28 BS elsewhere

Skywalkers is a good cautionary tale for Cap fans. They used to dominate because there was only M&D and Heros to compete for bmore’s best, and most who were north and east of the city gravitated towards Skywalkers. They were HS only, just like Cap, and then Coppermine came along with teams from 3rd grade on, and they slowly started taking away SW’s recruits. The 27s kind of split between CM and SW, but from 28 down, CM dominates that area now. SWs started running younger teams, but it was a little too late and we are now here. Cap better hope no serious competition gets established, but even for the 28 Cap Blue pool, some just chose to drive to Heros and M&D.
Coppermine 2028 is a good cautionary take for any good rising 9th graders looking to sign up for guinea pig duty at an emerging high school club. Coppermine 2028 collapsed recently when its top players left, leaving the rest with a husk of the former team as they enter the all-important sophomore year. I guess you had not heard about that? Anyway, I bet those remaining Coppermine girls wish they had played their cards differently last summer and went with one of the established HS clubs like Skywalkers.
They still finished last year at #12 though, ahead of skywalkers. Yes, they took a toxic kid who caused issues and some kids left, but the point is still valid; CM took over that area from SW. I also know that the kids and families who stayed are very happy they stayed. Probably about as happy as the 28s who left Cap Blue for bmore.
