I would agree with this…. Capital is not strong their freshman year but the 26 orange team is still ranked much higher than other local A teams and also has the Capital brand behind them

Can't be many players that are passed over by Capital Blue that will be playmakers for SW....
Not passed over, maybe they just chose SW over Cap Blue?
You'd be a fool.
It's probably a coin flip. 23 and 24 recruiting classes, SW did much better than Capital.
Coin Flip? Not at all. Capital had equally impressive recruiting classes for the 24 and 23 classes. All D1.

Not sure about that, we could be talking about MD kids who were on BLC. SW maybe more desirable location wise. SW is going to be a very good team.
Again, playing on the better team is only part of the consideration. Better team does not mean better recruiting.
I think its pretty clear SW has fantastic recruiting background. Prob third best in MD, and Im not a SW parent.
SW, Hero's, MD, Capital all have great recruiting. They each have a few incredible players on their top teams who would get recruited regardless of which top team they were on....Look at the recruiting history for the most recent teams. All very strong.

Who on earth would anyone drive to Towson to play for Skywalkers??? Maybe as a last resort if you didn't make one of the Capital teams but even that is a stretch. Jump on Stars or Pride. I understand SW has a good recruiting record but 3 hours round trip is ridiculous IMO. Crazy lacrosse parents in the DMV.
YJ south girls tried out for Capital ‘27s
How many and which positions?

If its 2027, you only need to do this a few weeks in the fall and end of May through early July. Its not a big commitment.
Sure, technically true, but for a high school club team to compete, the players need to train and work out outside of the team commitment, and that wouldn't be as convenient for DMV players to work out with Baltimore players. Not to mention, it is more difficult to build personal relationship with your teammates with limited interaction. Also, being on a "top 4" team does not necessarily improve your recruiting position. I would rather my player be a top 10 player on 10th ranked capital than bottom 10 player on 5th ranked SW. Families need to determine what is best for their player and not be so concerned about being on the best team.
10th ranked Capital, agree. But Capital Orange or Stars or Pride, different argument. Everyone has to do what is best for their family obviously, but I wouldn't rule out Baltimore because of the drive.
Skywalkers blue over Orange or the rest wins out. Coaches will go watch Skywalkers in HS, some Orange and not the others.
