Two Virginia public school girls made the Washington Post’s 1st Team All-Met, Dominion’s goalie and Oakton’s JMU commit. The rest were private school or Maryland players. Quite a few, however, got honorable mention.

Depends on when coaches get together to vote. Need to coordinate schedules for the meeting. Sometimes its quick, sometimes takes a while.

Anyone know why Class 6 and Class 4 All-State teams are out, but not Class 5? Does that usually come out late?

Wait, don’t let this thread die. Some one talk crap on another team

Good post.

Even as this thread showcases the less refined aspects of the species, here's to the lax dads--especially the balanced ones!

I like Loatheton!

Both names fit!

Battleless or Battlelack, which is the better nickname? 😂

BattleLESS (ha ha I like that)crying in your PBR on your couch in the front yard…
One is true… STATE CHAMPIONS… how many have you won?

Congrats 1 and done.

Hey Battleless, do you need a twofer?
Therapy for you and your daughter?
Choking is when not only the player is walking off crying which I have respect because they left their hearts out on the field.
But I do enjoy a parent who probably never played a sport in their life crying like a baby and doesn’t know what to do… no respect for them…you!
Winning by strategy is pretty damn good coaching and players playing.
This is not a war in the 1800’s where you stand there and shoot at each other… based on your moronic theory that is what you think should happen…
Strategy and skills won this game…be sure get that therapy you need it…
Oh, and I do believe Oakton are the State Champions…
Go Cougars!

In my opinion, Oakton let battlefield back in the game by slowing it down. Didn’t want to totally demoralize the young girls. Gave them some hope for NEXT YEAR!
Next year…because Oakton is State Champions this year… one goal or ten goals! I believe it’s still the one with the most.

pressing question - if Choketon is the greatest team, and is loaded with seniors (one senior and a chorus line), why didn't they win States the past three years? Same All-World player(s)...? And I loved the stall techique. Coward Lacrosse at its best.

The comments about stalling from Battlefield posters, guessing it’s really just the one poster who calls everyone an idiot when stating an opposing position, is an interesting one.

In an odd way, while criticizing the approach you are actually confirming Oakton was a solid team. It is hard to play keep away for the amount of time mentioned. So, either the Oakton players were really skilled at possessing the ball or Battlefield was really poor at pressuring the ball and causing turnovers.

If Battlefield was more athletic and quicker they should have had no trouble causing turnovers.
