I thought it was the Howard County or HoCo league. DCE 2022 team did not have a successful season in the league. The DCE 2022 team is not at the same level of the 2021 team.

Have you been livng under a rock? They created the Highlight division 2 years ago?

LOL.


I'm glad you're trying to undermine that "all lacrosse players are jerks" image.

They were all amazing choices. I think Sam set herself apart with her play in the tournament.

I say Ben Reeves (Yale) and Sam Appuzo (BC).


And I called it! Congrats to both. Perfect choices by the foundation. Both truly outstanding players.



So did everyone else, Nostradamus.


Sure, everyone knew it would be Ben but not Sam. Most were predicting Marie McCool or Megan Whittle. All were deserving but Sam, coming from BC which has built itself up to a national contender while she was playing for them, was the best choice this year.

It was amazing. My daughter couldn't believe she got to get a few pointers from these amazing players. What a cool perk of living in the DMV!

It is local, no hotel costs, lots of coaches on only a few fields (as opposed to tournaments where they are walking all over the place and may happen to be on field 12 when your kid is shining on field 2). Good luck


Thanks. Good to hear there are plenty of coaches. Glad your boys came through having a positive experience and uninjured.


It is a good experience and lots of fun since almost everybody the boys know are there. But be realistic. Unless your HS or club coach has told one of the coaches to watch your son he is not getting looks and probably not making one of the teams.

One of the problems with open tryouts. I'd say over half of the kids I watched did not even have the basic skills or lacrosse IQ down, so try to make up for it with brute force.


Good to know. I'll give DS a heads up to look out for those kids as we need no injuries.
