Probably looking at the American Select roster and seeing 10 m&d dc girls and a measly 3 BLC girls on the roster and thinking why would we want to combine with a less talented team? Maybe the BLC parents should bring their kids over to m&d dc tryouts?


This is comical - if you are the parent of one of those 10 and you do not try out for Capital your kid will have you to blame.


Maybe. Or maybe the good BLC players will want to leave the #25 ranked BLC team that will make up most of the Cap Blue team for the #9 team that is collecting better players each year.

Cap Blue 25 was awesome, and the 26 team is great, but the 27s and 28s stink. With the program headed in the wrong direction, it might make some parents reconsider the old Cap Blue model and some top BLC girls might jump ship. Prior to this summer that had never even been in question, which is why Cap Blue/BLC parents are on here coping constantly.

Bottom line - DMV bickering shows how entitled, privileged and annoying parents and their players can be. That will be the difference in D1 college recruiting.

Prediction: MDDC shakes it off, regroups, and confidently marches into playoffs.
Gonna be a rough year for the local teams I think.

Neither the 2028 Pride nor Stars LB teams ever lost to B-team Hero's White. And they both won by 8-11 goals in their 8th grade year. Just sayin'...


The 2029 year is loaded, way more so than the 2028 year. It is just not the case in DC, the 2029 class isn’t that strong in the DC area, hence BLC losing to HW, and NL, BLC, Pride, Stars, MCE, or any other DC area team never winning any tournaments that matter or winning big game in NGLL.


If not in DC, where exactly is 2029 "way more" loaded? How would one even start to make such an assessment?


Bmore, Annapolis, LI, Philly, everywhere else basically. I’m not gonna get into it, but I explained this in a thread about the UA150 if you’re bored.


"I'm not gonna get into it" means you don't have the goods. Make the case here bruh and see what you get.

All over this thread. Have fun reading it, bruh.


Man, you got clowned repeatedly on that forum. Why would you bring that up again?


Clowned by who??? Random losers like you? Obviously not worried what anyone on here thinks, but I am glad to give doses of reality to the wine mom crowd. The 2029 class is super deep, it will end up having as many or more 4 and 5 stars as the last mega class, 2024. Unfortunately for this area, almost all of those will be girls from elsewhere.


You did not really present anything resembling a rational thought and people pointed that out, over and over. If you are having another break, I hope you can find help.


Cool. Time will prove me correct on everything. Ask any of the IAAM, WCAC, or ISL coaches about the 2029 class, they will agree with me that it is a deep class with tons of high end talent. SPSG, McDonogh, Spalding, Maryvale, and St Mary’s 2029 classes are absolutely outstanding, you will see. Although, your “no it’s not” argument is super persuasive.

Individual player ability starts evening out by 8th grade. Coaching matters at this point. That is where DMV teams are lacking and why they are inferior to teams from the other regions mentioned. Lacrosse is a team sport. It does not work for one star player to run the ball all the way down the field and score. Good teams have learned to play defense. Defense and goalies will start to make the difference. Teams with more assisted goals will win. Too many coaches in the DMV do not understand this.
