Really another STA thread on this forum.

You see enough STA threads on the Independent / private schools thread.

I’ve never met a more arrogant community in my life.


You do understand that it was clearly not a STA parent that started this thread, right? So your post is off base and weird.


You are mistaken. The OP is clearly an STA mom. Don't worry most of the parents on the team know that she's a loon. And loon, we know who you are so please stop posting on this thread and the other threads in the lacrosse forum. You are embarassing yourself and us though do know your gal pals including me have turned the frequency of your posts into a drinking game.

The boys all want to win. But it’s good for these boys to lose. They’ve drawn a good lot in life. Not getting everything they want is a good early life lesson. I applaud STA’s pluck in continuing its lacrosse and football programs, and am overjoyed when the teams regularly have losing seasons. It built grit and character and humbled my Bulldogs.

You clearly don’t know the boys. They all 100% care and, quite frankly, wouldn’t be competitive athletes (let alone D1 or D3 athletes) if they didn’t care about winning or losing their games and league. Haven’t you ever seen them rush the field after a win?

Keep your snarky comment to yourself

Dude chill. I think you are missing the point that the three D1 commits at STA probably don’t care if they ever win the IAC. That ain’t the end all be all for the STA gang. Their standing in the IAC has no impact on their ability to play in college. The commits are all on good club teams. Boys who care about winning IAC lax definitely should not go to STA. But good lax players who play for good clubs and are otherwise inclined to attend STA should know they can be very recruitable, IAC record notwithstanding.


Dude, only STA parents say their boys don't care about winning the IAC. News Flash, they actually do.


You are so out of touch, I wonder what school your kid attends and what sport your kid actually plays. I feel bad for your kid.

Or is it a bridge “too” far? Grammar counts at STA though.


Classic response from STA booster when they have no real argument. It's a list-serve response, get over it. No one is asking you to edit their post and, by the way, your post is grammatically incorrect also.

Excuses, excuses. The larger schools could easily have very few good lacrosse players. Just because you have larger numbers doesn't mean you have top athletes or players for any given sport. And if you want to use that excuse, then just compare STA to Landon, Bullis, or SSSA (as you said). They have double and triple the amount of commits each year than STA, so your excuse is just that, an excuse, and ridiculous.


You should realize that you are responding to different posters. Also, you are the worst cliche of the insufferable lax dads who have stood on the sidelines (usually the same side side as the players) coaching your kid since he was 8. Just pathetic.


Wow, anger issues much? How does the excuse response get you this worked up? Look in the mirror and take a deep breath before you respond in such an out of control manner. It's embarrassing.

Please calm down now. Thanks.


No one said impossible or completely implausible. Those are your words. The argument being made is that 3-5 players is not enough. Question asked and answered. No bee in any bonnet, besides your own.
