Battlefield favored, but don't underestimate the Madison coach. For them to survive West Po, it may be their destiny. The force is strong. Is class 5 easier for Riverside than 4? And credit to Dominion. Every year I think they graduate everyone, and here they are again. Anyone have the all american ...

Congrats to Riverside! and thanks for pointing out the recruiting. VA public school players already suffer from a prolonged HS season which boxes players out from some early June recruiting events. Colleges continually miss out on amazing public school talent from this area. JMU won the girls D1 tou...

Spring break games next week before teams swing into district play. Will be interesting to see who is improving and has upside.

rankings 6
1a Robinson
1b Battlefield
2a Patriot -Rumor has it Freedom was up 6-1 in their game
2b Yorktown
5-7 Madison- super coach, Lake Braddock, West Potomac
8-11 Langley- will be in every game with that fogo, Oakton, Westfield, Chantilly

Battlefield and Robo have the most balance.

From my cursory count, the number of starting seniors/grad students on each squad is Brown 6, Princeton 5, Cornell 4-5, Dartmouth 4, Penn 3, Yale 3 and Harvard 1. Brown appears to have the most experience and they are on top.

I discount the early season games- particularly this year. Some teams looked great at the start- either they had a lot of returning experience (pre covid soph/fresh varsity players) or got a lot of practice through the pandemic. Most teams looked very rusty as a result of the pandemic but improved (...

Battlefield by 2 in the final. Yorktown prone to some bad turnovers and penalties, will catch up with them tonight. Yorktown if you are reading this, it is still not too late to self correct. Not to take any credit from the winner who will have earned it, this year seems more like a rock/paper/sciss...

All right Ill say it==CHECK THE STICK!

Freedom and Champ are 6 with Patriot and Battlefield

A circling cicada flying by said it was Madison 3-2 at the half before the monsoons canceled the game. Is region 6 tightening up? or should that Madison coach be looking for a college job- he's the real deal!

Updated rankings-- the early season jitters are getting worked out 6. 1 Robo- clear favorite (wide open after them) 2-4 (Yorktown, Langley, Madison) flip a coin 5-6 (Battlefield, Patriot) they could be 2-4, lack of competition may hurt them 7-8 (Chantilly, Oakton) 9-13 (Centreville, Woodson, Westfie...

yikes! Are people in Loudon happy that 1 team is so dominant? I know there are rules that allow kids to switch districts, but this seems to have created something that is not remotely competitive.
