Agree with you that GP has a long way to go be even in the same sentence as the reputable boarding schools in New England but they have certainly made some strides in the past 5 years.

GP can never be on par with New England schools ( reclass haters deal with it they exist in the DMv). First, they play a harder type of lacrosse with more diversity of players. Second, the IAC has become weak from inbreeding. GP draws from basically 3 club programs. None of which rank nationally. If there’s any doubt tell me how many teams from the IAC figure in the top 25 in any ranking.

Are you being serious? Madlax and next level are consistently ranked in the top 25 nationally

Down year for the IAC this spring but I could see the Hoyas crack the national top 25 in the final poll. Hoyas started slow with a brand new coaching staff but played their best style of ball in May when it mattered most.

In 2025, Landon was ranked #10 by US Lacrosse in their final poll.

In 2024, Landon was ranked #5 by US Lacrosse

In 2023, GP was ranked #4 by U.S. Lacrosse.

Something tells me both GP and Landon will be stronger in 2027.

Look at your trendline by year. It’s steadily going lower in the rankings. GP is losing 17 seniors. That math makes no sense.

There’s no chance that GP turns into Culver or WRA. The boarders only comprise 20% of the student body. Second, GP boarding has a horrible reputation for treating its boarders like 2nd class citizens. The reputation is so bad that there will still open rooms on the freshman floor. Third, most of the boarding spots go to football, basketball, and affluent international students. As of right now only three lacrosse boarders have enrolled for next year. Finally, why would you play in the IAC?

Maybe STA can operate as the dark horse from time to time.

Prep is going all in with the boarding approach and leveraging the dorms to bring in players to fill in the holes due to graduation departures.

Dream on regarding GP. That team is losing 17 seniors. The bench is shallow and as of right now the “all-in on boarding” approach has 3 players. You’re right on one thing. The IAC title will be between GP and Landon. The problem is that it’s a championship of mediocrity. No IAC team was in the top 25 in any rating and won’t be next year.

SJC graduates a ton while GZ brings back most of their squad.

Bullis needs to hire a HC, hard to gauge how they will be in 2027 until this is completed.

STA will be a bit more competitive.

GC is here to stay and will remain a top 4 team in the WCAC.

Fourth place in the WCAC isn’t saying much.

Probably says more than 1st in IAC

Trust me we would never consider GP for a myriad of reasons. The school reflects Nazi Germany with the token black recruit brought in to play football or basketball.

Zero real diversity at GP, it’s pathetic.

I know you're really just trying to trash Prep, but what an entitled statement that is. If you don't choose a school because you're worried a boarder is going to show up and take your position, then that school's coach probably doesn't want you. D

Do you want to know where a 10th, 11th or 12th grade boarder isn't going to show up and take your spot?

No. Especially if it’s a school we would never consider under normal circumstances. The possibly remote possibility that your starting spot on the Varsity lacrosse team isn’t anywhere near enough a threat to cause people who want to send their boy to Prep for a myriad of reasons to consider Bullis or Landon.

+100

Gavin will fit right in at Bullis. He already recruits at Urbana. If he goes to Bullis it won’t be so easy since all the teams do it in private school.

Current Urbana coach. Won their 3rd straight state title yesterday over Broadneck. Public school lacrosse in MD has faltered a bit but they do it right at Urbana.
