My son played at Mary Wash in the old boring CAC. Graduated 2019. Wish I would have had the chance to party with you all!! Damn!!

Hated those long trips to Salisbury and CNU. 95 is a nightmare from DC to Richmond

This thread has become pathetic

My son played at Mary Washington and they had a fairly large roster but a it’s a state school and a lot of the kids on the team were from Virginia. I don’t think many of them would have played on teams out of state. But I do think they enjoyed being part of the team and made some good relationships....

Good question!!

Missed folks insights.

The D3/D1 discussion is interesting. My son got a couple of looks from D1 coaches but went D3 and played a lot and did well. A couple of his buddies went D1 and never played. I always wondered whether they would have been happier going D3. I do think some kids get lured in by the D1 “mystique” (not ...

My son played at Mary Wash and while I’m excited they have found a home those are going to be some LONG bus rides up 95 on a Saturday. Even worse for CNU

Looks like Madison win 8-5. Congrats to the Warhawks!! Class 6 state title stays in FC

Is it a Battlefield vs Yorktown rematch?

Jumbo they charged the fans. Although if I remember correctly Wesley charged us $2

My son played at Mary Wash and while Salisbury always killed us as fans we were amazed at how well their attack moved the ball. I remember Kalama, Blondino and I forget #45s name (he was built like a tank but had great hands). Very impressive and very unselfish. Although they charged us $5 when we p...

I’ll take Coach Curran and his crew any day of the week. The adjustments he made vs Chantilly in the 2015 championship game after Robinson was crushed by them in the regional finals were amazing. I know I’m living in the past but my kid graduated in 2015 (with 2 state championship rings).

Congrats to Yorktown!! I do think they have the best unis in the state. Is this the first state championship to leave Fairfax County?

I was at the Robinson/Yorktown game. Great game and great atmosphere! Tons of people there and great showing by the students of both schools. I was really impressed by the Yorktown goalie and their D middies. They were rarely beaten all night. They also moved the ball well on offense. I think a coup...

I went to the Robinson/Woodson game Saturday and left scratching my head about some of the rules. My son played in high school and college so I’m much more familiar with the guys game, but there were severalplays where a player was cutting through the “box”, caught a pass, was running away from the ...

Guys I was being sarcastic about the Yorktown state championships. However one of the greatest NoVa lax games I’ve seen was 2014 regional semifinals Yorktown vs Robinson. Amazing game - that Yorktown team was loaded. Both Pollacks, Tiene, Harwood(maybe wrong name he went to Robert Morris I think), S...

Things are getting feisty - just like laxpower!! Strong words from the Yorktown crew!! They do have the state championships to back it up though

Robinson won the Patriot District Friday night 16-8 vs Woodson. No insights - I was watching the Sixers game. I think Regionals start tomorrow

Any insight on the Robo Madison game? Was that the conclusion of the game that was rained out after the first half last week? I watched that game on Livestream and Robo seemed to be doing a lot of me ball - one guy dodging and everyone else watching. Madison slowed the tempo and was very deliberate

I’d say 16-10 vs Gonzaga is pretty impressive. Best public school team in VA? Hard to say in these crazy times. I’ve watched another Rams team on Livestream and they look pretty good.

Great seeing South Lakes alum Matt Hughes making all kinds of plays last night for Loyola in their win over Denver. Great win for the Greyhounds!!
