Its not technically bracketed-- just having GA/ECNL/MLSN play teams that will not face in normal season. Maybe the question if it is bracketed is why is TSJ playing so high? It is a showcase. Each team is certainly making its case. Also, kinda crappy form from Arlington to run up goals that high.

It's crappy that the TSJFC leadership registered their teams for a tournament they'd be completely outmatched in. The coaches know. What was the Arlington coach supposed to do, tell the players to stop moving the ball forward or to make 20 passes before trying to score - that would of been more of an insult. Maybe the arlington coach played his defenders as forwards and vice versa and they still scored, we don't know...but it's not on Arlington, all the blame should be on TSJFC

There is 1 bracket. They matched the GA teams against ECNL teams and unfortunately Arlington drew the short straw and had to play TSJFC - someone has to play them

Why? the expectations for NOVA GA are at an all-time low.

FCV imploded and lost most of their best players to ECNL clubs or one of the two brand new GA teams in the area.

SYC joins McLean to form VA Union, their best players are in Union and then leaves the union and i think a lot of their best players stayed for Fairfax VA Union.

The GA added 2 brand new GA clubs in a market that is oversaturated with ECNL clubs, there is no way they can be expected to compete. This year a majority of the top talent left GA and went to ECNL.

GA Mid Atlantic South will be running through Baltimore (Armour, Celtic or Coppermine) and North has Beadling, Century and SJEB. It's going to be very difficult for any of the NOVA GA clubs to crack the top 5 in any age group (except the FCV 07s - they largely stayed intact)

On the boys side:

SYC 2012 aka Samaba Boyz lost to NCFC 2-3
DCU 2011 lost to Rayados de Monterrey U14 0-3

Tsj is doing some damage to the GA brand around here. Syc must be so pissed

And the 2011s lost 0-12 to Arlington.

That’s a really bad result.

TSJ 10 lost to Union 5-0 and 08 lost 4-0 to VDA 08. Those aren’t good results, but considering that those 2 opponents are probably the strongest in NOVA, it’s not horrific. I expected worse, to be honest.

VDA 09s 14-0 over STJ GA. Yes you read that correctly.

Any scores to report?
