Would you do Orange over Stars or Pride A teams?


I absolutely would. Orange still had seven or eight go to solid D1 programs and the remainder of the girls who wanted to play in college commit to strong D3 schools


Agree that Capital Orange is second best option locally. Recruiting infrastructure in place and if your player excels, she can move up next year potentially.


Best I can tell for the 24 Class Capital Orange had 8 commits (7 D1 and 1 D3) while the 24 Pride team had 11 commits (9 D1 and 2 D3). I don't think its so clear that Capital O is clearly the second best option.


One thing is certain if players opt for Orange, they will not be marketed to the same colleges as the Blue players. They can’t be because the club needs to place their Blue players first to validate their team selections.

Occasionally, an Orange player will land at a top school, but this will be more the exception than the rule.

Pride is a complete guessing game when it comes to recruiting. Roll the dice at your own risk. The best class they have had, and probably will ever have, was their 2023s. The club had the talent handed to them and didn’t help at all with recruiting. Some players ended up at top D1 programs but they did this on their own.

Capital Blue is by far the ideal situation. Outside if this go with the team that will play at the highest level in tournaments.


Two Pride 2023s are headed to West Point (#15) and one is headed to Richmond (#21).
Take an A team at Pride, Stars, MCE, VaMetro over Cap Orange. A team at said clubs get slotted in higher LOP at tournaments, coaches are there. Orange families end if up doing a lot on their own b/c they do not want to wait till Blue is done. If your DD did not male Blue they will survive.


Many of the Orange girls committed earlier than the Blue players this year

We haven't gotten one either. Not sure what to make of it, but I hope it's backup versus rejection.

There are two D3 commits that we know of and eight D1 commits from Orange

D1 - Butler, Butler, John’s Hopkins, Cal, Howard, Army, Campbell, and High Point

D3 - Chicago, Gettysburg

Pride has nine D1 commits and three D3 commits from ALL of their teams

D1 - Va Tech, VA Tech, Arizona St, UNC Charlotte, George Washington, William and Mary, Monmouth, Wagner, Gardner Webb

D3 - Shenandoah, Randolph Macon, Kenyon

So, I will take Orange any day over Pride. The quality of schools the Orange girls committed to over the Pride team is much better, minus a couple
