I’ll save you the suspense; not happening.CTlaxer12 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 13, 2023 5:58 pm Had a chance to catch some of the St.A's v. St. John's DC game today. Nice W for St. A's 10-8 in DC and St. John's is very impressive as expected and certainly a top 10 team. I have to say in all my years (yes I am old) of watching high school I am hard pressed to remember a more impressive start by a team than St. A's this year, who have played one of the more difficult schedules of which I can think.
For my money (which is very little) the top three teams in the country are (1) St. A's (2) Manhasset (3) Chaminade and should be ranking accordingly. The gap between the top three is minimal and I believe any of the top 3 could beat each other on any day.
Continuing to beat a dead horse, lets see if IL does the right thing and ranks them 1-2-3 if they can stomach having that kind of LI representation.
Just got the score.JoeMauer89 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 13, 2023 10:11 pm Anybody got a Port Washington Vs CSH Final? Thanks.

No doubt. Also shows how tough it is to travel, which highlights how great St Anthony’s is doing. That game vs St John’s was pretty impressive athleticism by both teams
It is true that McDonogh has assembled an excellent team; and I use that word advisedly. Transfer portal wide open in Owings Mills.kr522 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 13, 2023 8:48 pm I agree St A’s start is one for the ages, and I too can’t remember anything more impressive….i think there was a year McDonagh went undefeated (or very close to it) in the MIAA plus against some top PA schools.
Manhasset used to play StA’s close in recent years, and I wish we still had that measuring stick game. I suppose we’ll find out a lot when they play Chaminade (and CSH and GC). Tbh I’d hold off on rating them so high just yet because we know these other private schools are so stacked, and I think Manhasset has to prove they belong by playing them well

I am given to understand that many enter as other than Freshmen and also hail from far flung areas; so, to those extents, yes.kr522 wrote: ↑Fri Apr 14, 2023 9:09 am:^) Is their transfer portal of a different mass or gravitational pull than StA’s and Chaminade?fordmaddoxford wrote: ↑Fri Apr 14, 2023 8:18 amIt is true that McDonogh has assembled an excellent team; and I use that word advisedly.

Makes sense….i remember Manhasset losing kids to places like Deerfield (not just Chaminade), so there are some schools, especially boarding schools, that pull more than just local talentfordmaddoxford wrote: ↑Fri Apr 14, 2023 10:14 amI am given to understand that many enter as other than Freshmen and also hail from far flung areas; so, to those extents, yes.kr522 wrote: ↑Fri Apr 14, 2023 9:09 am:^) Is their transfer portal of a different mass or gravitational pull than StA’s and Chaminade?fordmaddoxford wrote: ↑Fri Apr 14, 2023 8:18 amIt is true that McDonogh has assembled an excellent team; and I use that word advisedly.

The Friars' best player this year is from Westhampton. I consider that to be a far flung area!fordmaddoxford wrote: ↑Fri Apr 14, 2023 10:14 amI am given to understand that many enter as other than Freshmen and also hail from far flung areas; so, to those extents, yes.kr522 wrote: ↑Fri Apr 14, 2023 9:09 am:^) Is their transfer portal of a different mass or gravitational pull than StA’s and Chaminade?fordmaddoxford wrote: ↑Fri Apr 14, 2023 8:18 amIt is true that McDonogh has assembled an excellent team; and I use that word advisedly.
