Not the PP but I wanted to dig into this to see what the facts really showed. Here's what I found (before anyone gets rabid, know that I have the names of every player from the past five years and their club affiliation. I don't want to bombard this forum with this data, but I will if people want to see it.)

* The OP's numbers about M&D players were inaccurate. But not by much: The OP claimed 4 M&D players were on D1 championship teams over the past five years. The correct number is 7.

* The club with the most players on these teams is Yellow Jackets (17). Right behind YJ is Mass Elite (16). Skywalkers is third (12). Then it's Top Guns (9), Grizzlies (9), HHH (8), Salt City Snipers (8), and Steps Elite (8). M&D is next (7), followed by Phantastix (6), Laxachusetts (5), 3d Colorado (5), and Capital (4).

* The OP's numbers weren't accurate, but the question he / she posed is relevant: M&D consistently ranks as one of the top high school club teams in the country. But their numbers are lower than other teams -- certainly lower than most would expect given their club success.

M&D 2033 & 2034 are not at Live Love Lax. Like why say that they are?
Shore, West, DC are there for most ages but not Black. I wonder why that is?

The question was about M&D Black. And this is not HOCO. This is so weird. There’s M&D Black 27, 28, 29 & M&D Black 35. Why not 30-34? You seem to give HOCO such a hard time about where they are. Their 3 youngest teams are at the beach and the rest are at Live Love Lax. Just seems so funny to me.

Umm no. Say good night HOCO.

Because it isn’t run by Robinson/3 step - gotta feed the machine!

A quick look at the Live Love Lax schedules shows there are M&D black team in 2027,28,29,30,31,32,33, and 34. M&D red are well represented too.

You must be looking at M&D DC and Shore as well.

So why this post?

I saw an M&D 2035 Black social media post that they were going to be there as well.
