There is also at least one local top player on M&D, who I would guess will be attending public. I think the Hero's girls are mostly headed to private. Pride is a mix of public and private, with probably more than 50% headed to private. Don't forget about Stars, which has at least a few of the top local players who I think are staying public. Not sure whether any of these girls will be attending Visi.
Top Stars girls always seem to end up at SSSA

If any live West of the D.C. beltway, PVI will be in the mix.

Western MoCo or southern FredCo across Point of Rocks would be an easier commute than GC or Visi

Don’t disagree with this, but SR snags a lot of them.
Only if they can’t get into Visi!

GC is in Olney, right? Beautiful campus! Not accessible on the daily from VA.

VA girls would consider BI over GC.

Definitely. I know of several that attended open house, shadow day, etc. Not 100% sure they will be applying, but chances are probably good that Visi legacies will be submitting.
Are these good lacrosse players?
Yes, several “talented” players.
No one good is going to Visi, stop the madness.
Few people even know who all the good players are, let alone where they may be applying to high school.
I’ll bet the coaches at SR, PVI, HC, Potomac etc know who all the good players are - and exactly where they are applying to HS.
Curious why this poster would include PVI and omit GC in this list since GC is ranked above all of these programs.
Probably bc this is a thread about Visitation and you can on one hand the number of girls applying to both Visitation and GC. Just a guess and no knock on GC which I agree is a great lax program.
The same handful would consider both Visi and PVI so there has to be a different reason ...
Where does one live that PVI and GC are both actual possibilities? Do they have access to a helicopter? I can't imagine trying to get to GC from the VA side of the river, or PVI from MD.

GC also is a target for many Howard County kids and they get Hero's, M&D, and Skywalkers girls. That's not something usual for Visi.
But lacrosse is a big focus for these girls when choosing their high school and GC has stability while Visi doesn't.

Many of the top 28s are public school kids as well.
I agree with this. People may dispute it because they don't really know what is going on, but in my opinion, after watching years of games with local girls, many of the top girls are from public schools.
