As a longtime MC parent I would like to correct the above statement as I know most of these coaches from our time there. And, for what it’s worth, almost all of these coaches have been at MC for several years.
2032 coach is a JV lacrosse coach at HC
2030C coach is the former Varsity coach at Whitman
2030M coach is the Varsity coach at HC
Both 2029 coaches were high level D1 lacrosse players
2028 coach is a former SR lacrosse coach
2027 coach is club director
2026M coach is Varsity coach at HC
2026C coaches are a JV HS coach and former D1 player
2025M coach is former Varsity coach at Holy Cross
2025C coach was a Varsity Lax coach at 2 public schools in MoCo
2024 coaches were high level D1 athletes who coached at Pride before coming to MC

SR has no problem recruiting the top girls from MC or other clubs. They are loaded with talent and the pipeline is strong.

I am curious what Stone Ridge thinks about all this. MC Elite was great because SR girls could play right there. Now they have to recruit from other clubs and those kids may not want to travel all the way to SR?

And it is a shame because that team had promise. One of their top players is already playing for Skywalkers.

Going back to 4th grade that team had promise. Crazy how JR ruined what could have been a gold mine for her. Many talented 26s and 27s started at MC and are now at Hero's, Skywalkers, BLC and NL. Imagine what could have been right here in Bethesda.

What happened to the 4th grade team? Is that the team that is now 2026? How did JR ruin it? Was she the coach? The current 4th grade team is supposed to be quite good.

NP but I believe they mean when the 26s were 4th graders. They were very good but most are now at different clubs and on top teams and left because of JR. Lots of SR girls over at other clubs...

There are a lot of reasons for a kid to join a B team. Not a ton of clinics or playing opportunities for that age otherwise. For example, I know of several girls who are new to lacrosse and trying to get better for HS team. If they want to spend weekends playing tournaments, so be it. Not for someone else to decide or judge.

Unfortunately many of the B teams have little to no coaching. That is the crux of the matter with these teams. And as the team moves up in age groups, you see further deterioration. It's really too bad MC doesn't care about good coaching. It would be so convenient for my B team daughter who is on a much better Virginia B team.

US Club Lacrosse Rankings has MCElite 27 at #151. https://www.usclublax.com/rankings

2024 - #155
2025 - #86
2026 - #87
2028 - #154
2029 is highest ranked at #48.

These are the A teams FWIW. For example 2026 B team is ranked #211 out of 233 ranked clubs. Ouch.

That's better than the 25 B team which was ranked 238 after being outscored 71-8. I feel so sorry for those girls to get beat so bad so often.

There was no coach at all for 2026 last year?

Just saw this thread was bumped up. Per the last comment that wasn't me but I think I know who you think it was and trust that she is not the only one curious about what happened to this team. I do think whoever asked is a troll as it is obvious to anyone who follows that the scores are all online.

You are tiresome. We get it. You hate MC Elite and are obsessed with the 26 team. We know who you are.
