That is great to hear. Congratulations BI well done.

Lots to unpack here ...

False claim #1: "... more and more DMV lax families are choosing not to send their daughters, and their $$, to the Ivies for reasons the Harvard and UPenn Presidents made obvious."

- The current ivy freshman class has the most DMV representation of any other ivy roster class: 6 are freshman, 4 are sophomores, 4 are juniors, 5 are seniors.

- DMV 2024s have (at least) 5 committed to ivies (3 from SJC, 1 from SSSA, 1 from Holton). One less than last year, but one more than the 2022 and 2021 classes (and same as the 2020 class).

- Players don't "choose" not to attend an ivy because of a perceived liberal bias (everyone knows it exists everywhere and that ivies are lightening rods). If you really know this sport, the main reasons players turn ivies down are: 1) the lack of scholarship $ 2) the intense academic rigor (which isn't for everyone) and 3) the high standardized test scores and transcript expectations ivy coaches demand of recruits (which scare many players away).

False claim #2: "Visi and BI have sent more girls to play Ivy league lax in recent years than most of the other ISL and WCAC schools."

If we define "recent" at 4 or less years (using all available data):

- Of the 19 DMV players on current ivy teams, only 1 is from BI (Princeton). Just 2 are from Visi (both at Yale).

- SSSA also has 2. Holy Child and Holton have more (4 and 3, respectively).

- Holton, Holy Child and SJC (not BI or Visi) have the most active and committed players to ivies (4 each).

BI plays as a team with lots of passing and unselfish play. That will beat a team of 2-3 studs any day.

Visi won every draw in the first quarter and BI not had 2 possessions. 5-0 Visi. Second quarter was even each scoring 2. BI made changes on the draw and it even the possessions out. BI made a couple of changes on D as well. After that it was all BI

Wow. What adjustments did BI make at half? Outscored them 10-3 in 2nd half, it looks like.

BI refused to quit, their best players stepped up and made plays, Visi’s best players wilted

Do you think that Visi got tired? Or did BI make some changes at half? Or both? Big swing after halftime.

Last year SJC played O’Connell the day before playing HC. During the match a hack DJO player went on a SJC hit parade when it became clear the game was out of reach. She knocked a SJC starter out of the game with a neck injury (who stayed out for the HC game) and took her frustrations out on several other SJC players. The player should have been ejected but eventually carded out. SJC was battered going HC and it showed. Another reason why scheduling back to back games is a really bad idea.

VISI was just out played and out coached! Two very talented teams, but there can only be one. That one was BI today.

I thought the SJC coach never subbed...

Agreed. BI isn’t a match for Visi. Daughters team played both and the difference in talent is noticeable.

BI spotted them 6 and still beat them by 2.
