what a joke. No offense, but JMU is not a powerhouse academic. More like a powerhouse underachiever school. Capital is a strong in this area, but weak against Philly and LI. Perspective, people.

Long Island is where the best players come from.

Capital doesn't compare period in any form.

How many actually graduate with a degree?
How many actually graduate from the school they started at?

you are actually saying girls commit to D1 schools with the grind of D1 programs and are happy riding the bench? Laughable - they do it so mommy and daddy can brag to no-no thing friends. Playing builds character. Trying to fulfill daddy’s dream does not.

Brunner- UMass- no games or starts
Mantey- Cornell- 6 games no starts
Beattie - JMU (goalie) 2 games no starts
Huebner- Stony Brook 8 games no stats
Lint- Uconn (goalie) 2 games no starts
Boggs- Syracuse 3 games no starts
Carr- Notre Dame 1 game no starts
Meyer Denver- 10 games no starts
Cuviello- JMU- 12 games
Docking- Penn 0 games
Jenkins - Vanderbilt 0 games
Mitchell- Princeton 3 games no starts
Engleberg- 13 games zero starts

Not sure who compiled these stats, but Docking's stat sheet showed 1 GP last week, and I'm watching Penn v Yale. and she has played almost the whole game. Freshman. So, not sure these are accurate.

She just scored. Looks like she's getting her first real action. If you think one cup of coffee in a blowout in Feb is wildly different than 0 games, just say that so we can measure your bias.

I have a bias for accuracy. The PP and the person who started the thread (probably the same person) have a bias to try and prove that Capital players don't get playing time in college. Not only is that biased view false, it is not super relevant, as many other posters have pointed out. Further, using Freshman stats at all, especially inaccurately, was certainly a straw man.

Top college players come from all over and aren't proven until they face the crucible of D1 lacrosse, especially at a top 25 program. If you want a shot at being one and you live in No. Virginia, DC, or MoCo, then you play for Capital (or make a long commute to Baltimore). Pretty straightforward, and has been for a while around here.

Then please do the same for M&D, Skywalkers, etc etc and compare the results in a true analytical fashion. I think you will find its all the same +/-

I will say this. In the DMV. Not Baltimore. Washington Capital area. There is no other club close to the success that Capital has. Their orange teams get recruited as well as most other clubs A teams. Take your axe to grind somewhere else. From top down the club is excellent and I think you will hear the same from the families.

Seems like an innocent question and relevant subject matter for DCUM lacrosse threads.

This. These kids used lax to get into Yale, Stanford, Columbia, Notre Dame, UVA, and now that isn’t good enough? To what end is all this - pro women’s lacrosse? Enjoy the ride.

Mind boggling that people care. Good experience yes but the rest. Who cares!!! Once you get into the school of your dreams your goal has been met!

To the parents that do care I genuinely wonder why? Will it lead to something? For them? For you? Would you go to a lesser school just to show that you have more playing time? I’m pretty sure that the girls at Ivy‘s that are not playing would be getting great minutes at less desirable schools.

How many Capital players are professionals? Unless they go pro then what’s the point? The topic of this thread is idiocy.
