SJC is similar to PVI over the years, abundant talent on the rosters BUT SJC will need to take down the bully on Eye St and play excellent lacrosse throughout the entire season to get the recognition that the Cadet faithful are thriving to receive.

SJC may be better than Prep and Bullis.

And add GZ and SJC to the mix and you have a very high level of competition for DC.

No one will sleep on Landon. Landon will be an excellent team but opponents will not fear them. Landon, Prep and Bullis will be the top 3, SSSA a close 4th and St Albans and Episcopal will 5/6. The gap between the #1 team and the #6 is closing. All six IAC teams are good.

Landon has no shot v Bullis or Prep.
I am sure they are good, but Bullis and Prep are going to run them off the field this spring.

The Most Important thing to do is Sleep on Landon.
Two years ago they were in complete rebuild, and they lost to Bullis twice and Prep once by one goal in overtime each time. When it goes to overtime, the game is very close. If a player doesn't throw a poorly conceived pass across the field to #7 from Bullis and makes the easy play, Landon likely wins the game and goes to the 'ship.

In a partial rebuild last year, Landon pounds Ryken, who cares, and loses by a goal to St. John's. Landon has a chance to tie with 34 seconds and the freight train with the ball rumbling to his left in front of the goal -- Phenomenal save by St. John's Goalie. So these are losses, and wins are all that matter, but... Sleep on Landon.

A regular season and post season championship for a conference with six teams. Weak

The IAC has always tried to mimic what the Ivy League does. They don't even have a post season 4 team play-off for the football season.

I tried to dig up some findings from the old laxpower website. Personally I don't care who win the regular season "paper" championship, I think most players, coaches and parents are about who wins at the end of May.

2010: Landon IAC outright champion
2011: Prep IAC outright champion
2012: Landon IAC outright champion (side note it was after the 2012 season the IAC headmasters brought back the co championship no-sense "everyone is a winner mentality)
2013: Georgetown Prep regular season champion / St. Stephens IAC playoffs
2014: Landon and Georgetown prep tied for the regular season championship / Georgetown Prep wins IAC playoffs (Coach Giblin retires from Prep after this season)
2015: Landon outright regular season and IAC playoff champion
2016: Bullis outright regular season and IAC playoff champion
2017: Landon outright regular season and IAC playoff champion
2018: Landon wins regular season paper championship / Bullis wins the IAC playoff championship
2019: Prep wins regular season paper championship / Bullis wins the IAC playoff championship (Prep doesn't even make it to the IAC finals in 2019)
2020: NO SEASON
2021: fingers crossed there is some type of season in April and May for the kids and players.

Hope this gives some perspective.

A regular season and post season championship for a conference with six teams. Weak

The conference champion is determined by the IAC tournament, however Prep did earn a "banner" for winning the regular season.

Didn't Prep win a co championship with Bullis in 2019?

win a championship and stop making excuses year after year.

2014 is a long stretch for an alleged national lacrosse power

Regardless--Prep is a very strong team come 2021. This could be the year Prep makes it to the IAC Championship game. Last time was 2015.

Just because you say it’s false doesn’t make any difference. I know the ages.

Falso, sorry.
