Madison and LB dead even. LB's best players > Madison best players. Madison has more depth but surrounding cast of the LB senior commits are really better than anyone gives them credit for.

The others of course will be in the mix but I think Warhawks and Bruins are clear pre spring favorites.

When do the pollster start their rankings?

It is fall and attendance for some teams has been hit or miss, but I generally agree with this. LB will be dangerous and able to beat any team on any given day. I also think they will have some off days and lose some games that they should win. Madison still looks like the team to beat. Lake Braddock, Battlefield, Robinson, Langley and Yorktown all look decent but not overwhelming.

I know that fall should not count for anything but in the pre-season it is all that there is. VEL results would make one question if LB is really a top 5 team. The 3 D1 commits did play in some of these games. Having a strong starting 10 with another solid 15 is what is needed to win the 6A title

My bad. I was looking at Broadneck HS Bruins in Annapolis for those 2 24s. My eyes are going…..

3 players A/M/D. Georgetown Penn State and Highpoint. All play VLC no 2024 public school kids have comitted yet in this area. That may change soon. High school has very little to do with college recruiting.

I know they have 3 2023s committed. I have not seen any reports of any 24s committed.

You must not have followed DCUM Yorktown is always at the top of the ranking

Yorktown is not at the top.

Back to the purpose of this discussion, Yorktown is atop the VEL league and Indy won over Patriot. there are several good goalies in N.Va publics hard to say one will always be the best.
