Port Charlotte lost to Fort Myers 11-6, was a hard faught game.
As for killerboots question, after our first game we looked good, couldve been better but we have alot of room for improvments since 85% of our players are rookies.

im not sayin your not gona be good but from what ive heard SR is not close to what they were last year...i guess Brandon and Alonso really do make a difference...anyways PBC wasnt where they were at last year either and i think it shows but good luck and when our teams hit the field about a month from now well all really see whats goin on

i scored our two goals.. it was 4-1 at half time but then they it was like 9 to 2 at the end of the third quater and our coach put in all of our nonstarters and thats when they piled on those goals

Granted the names everyone seems to be throwing around are great teams, there is a team being made no mention of that is still going to be a competitor on both coasts this year...they lost a lot of talent and went down on Saturday to Douglas 16-10 because of a slow 1st quarter, but they held their own for the remaining 3...they may not be a great team in many eyes but they made the final 4 last year and i'm predicting that they'll make it again this year, and maybe to the state championship game

i dont even go by there rankings, they rank stupid. By the end of the seaon there will be teams just barley over .500 ranked higher then team who are like 14-2. I only use them for the scores.

WOW..... do something with yourself thats embarrassing. Even if it was updated laxpower wont even depict the top teams until 5 or 6 games are under everyone's belt. You can uncross your fingers, cuz even if u get that #1 laxpower ranking for blowing out a terrible team, it doesnt mean anything.

We lost to Douglas 16 - 10 yesterday but the score doesn't really represent how the game went. We came out really slow and they got an early lead on us in the first quarter but in the rest of the game they only outscored us 9 - 8. If we started the game better it might have been a different game. Don't get me wrong though, Douglas is a great team. I can't wait to play them again, hopefully in the state championships.

HHMM. BC has a pretty weak local schedule.....so the games that they will need to win...to get any respect, are Douglas ( lost...and no matter what you say..you have to play 4 periods to beat a quality team) Plant and possible Clearwater. Which goalies played..and how many goals did the give up/each?
IMHO, the star LAX team at BC currently is the girls program. Lots of seniors...hugely popular at the school....and may become the second elite girls sport at BC after girls basketball.
LAX in SW Fla seems to have lost a little of its rapid growth, but this is probably not unusual for a new sport...fast start...then tails off as it becomes more established.
I think BC would be a better program as would all of the other local teams if the "overall" area level of play was better. There seem to be two tiers of play....good...and new, with a lot more in the new category.
In closing..Canterbury lost to Cape Coral???? Wow....the private schools on this coast may not be able to keep up with the public school LAX growth.

The facts:
So, it was 7-2 before BC woke up? You then almost matched them goal for goal....? That is not close...and will not serve the team well as the year goes on!
Did they change keepers? Did they play the new goalie? How many goals did he let by? How many shots on goal?
BC has descended into a popularity contest for playing. Don't bother going out for conditioning..it has no bearing. You will get no credit for making the effort.
Last year, they had NO PLAYER development. Played the same kids all year long. Several good players got discouraged and left the program. sad...one of them was the assist leader the year before!
Better put a lid on the goal.
Douglas lost big to gardens. So anybody remember my preseason top teams?

I never said the score of the game was close, I said the 2nd half was closely played. It showed us two things. One is that we need to come out stronger in our games and the other is that we have a team that can be competitive.
Our goalie played the whole game, and I guess since we're freshman then he is the new goalie. I do not have the shots on goal.
I don't know why you make the comment about BC being a popularity contest for playing. If you are good you will play, thats all there is to it. I'm a freshman and I play so I don't know how I got to be so popular if it's my first year here. About the conditioning, it is run by team captains, so it probably won't have any immediate effect on were you stand on the team, but when we start running and practice and you can outlast the guy covering you, you will shine and you will get on the field.
I wasn't here last year so I can't say much about this except that you have your chance to show you deserve to play at practice and if you do then you will play. It's a shame that they left the program because this year there is player developement with the addition of a full time JV team. It gives kids who might not have played so much if we were all on the same team a chance to improve and come up to varsity next year.

I guess your coach tells you that or something, because that is completely false. Beating 2 new/bad programs doesn't make you a good team, believe it or not. And saying another team sucks isn't being competitive, it's being immature and rude.

Whoever is Chapel#1, you need to stop the crap talking. Don't put a bad stamp on our team. Do the talk through your actions on the field, not on TLF. And Titan, our coach wouldn't tell us we were #1 even if we really were. Just because we beat two new/bad teams doesn't necessarily make us a bad team either; believe it or not.

I didn't say you were a bad team, but to be called a good team you need to prove it, and blowing out 2 bad teams doesn't do it. I'm not saying WC is good or bad, I'm saying I think it's yet to be decided.

Ok i'll remember my post.. which was the scores of the East coast teams vs plant.
Also last i heard rain effects both teams the same. Plant couldn't beat a Dwyer team that was missing their star MLG player #23
Calling an off day would be an understatement. Plant looked like a bunch of thugs with their cheap shots and some of the most disrespectful actions ive seen in lacrosse.

Not that this would necessarily throw a W in MP's favor, but the team reports that their entire starting attack plus a handful of mids were absent from the game (talk about bad luck). A match with MP at full strength may have been a little less lopsided in BC's favor. Just saying.
BCGoalie56
02-26-2008, 10:47 PM
i don't buy all of this MP missing half the team, i was in the stands enjoying this game as an alumni and all i could hear the MP parents saying was "The guys aren't playing there best today" nothing about the team being gone...just about playing a bad game, which is unfortunate, but im not 100% sold on this story.
brinebum
02-26-2008, 11:32 PM
I am not sure of what there is to "not be sold on." This team has no reason to lie whatsoever. I never said half the team was missing - I don't know if anyone mentioned that. But I am basically positive that the starters on attack, plus a handful of middies (maybe three or four) were absent.

This must be a Cypress thing. I saw the Cypress girls coach get thrown out last year....he went absolutely crazy. Both coaches are ....a little high strung. How many times have you seen a coach get thrown out....of a LAX game in SW Fla.?

benjamin is losing a ton of players alot of seniors and there losing there x attackman. gardens should probably be the favorite for that division there the most complete team i think they have an amazing goalie a pretty solid defense 2 good attackmen and pretty solid middies. thats just my opinion it could come out completly different i no my team will become a threat if our goalie keeps improving and our middies man up. im not sure bout dwyer there on a pretty steady decline
i think that dwyer is gonna surprise everyone this year. u may think the team lost there coachin staff but we didnt i feel that the coachin is the best its been. and on another note there wont be any more home games for dwyer (last one 2/29/08 for possibly the season) due to the track being fixed.

What an ***.
Let me guess. You grew up....started playing LAX...like it was nothing....everyone can can't they? Suddenly, you hit high school..and varsity LAX is available. So, in your tiny young mind, you think that everyone else has the same varsity opportunity.
Did you ever for a moment even consider those ahead of you that grew similar programs to varsity status? Soccer, track, softball, swimming, diving, water polo.......others? Do you think that varsity status suddenly happened like some cosmic moment?
Get out of your own little tiny world and stop degrading other players that today have to work and pay (unlike you) for the right to play LAX. Clubs get little or no help from the school districts. Many club teams require a payment or have to raise between 300-500 per player to finance the effort.
Better to leave your mouth shut and have us wonder if you are stupid, than to open it and confirm it for everyone here.

He plays for Nease, who recently got owned by Saint Andrews. I'm sorry us club players don't live near a school that actually has a Varsity lax team, since we have a choice and everything.

oh i didnt see that. But yes well put Lacrossebum03. My school hates the idea of having a team as well as it even being a club. Most Clubs can compete with the varsity teams but there school choose not to make them a sanctioned team.

I have not had an opportunity to see more than a quarter at a time. Acquinas has been the foe for BC for a couple of years, so with them going varsity, it would seem to be a clear path. Freedom has been tough at times....but I do not know if they are strong this year and my Tampa contact has not commented on them.
I used to be impressed with Ft Myers girls, but I think they lost their initial coach who was VERY strong. I think they have lost their momentum.
If the BC girls had more local competition, they would be even better. It is tough to carry enough intensity to a semi final or final game, but when it has been an easy road to the state tourney, one slip and you are cooked. I saw a quarter of the Ft Myers and Gulf Coast game....crushed them both. I wanted to see the whole Cypress game but I could not go. By the score, it did not look close.
So, if I were going to bet my money, I would put 75.00 on Collier, and the other 25 somewhere else..probably Freedom.

Thanks, I agree that the teams in the area can't really compete with BC and that ultimately hurts the team a little bit, as strong as they are. I've heard good things about Douglas's team too, BC JV played the Douglas JV and won, but that speaks nothing of either Varsity program. BC plays Douglas this Saturday however, so we will see what comes of that.

Good luck with ft.myers lacrossebum03, as a goalie i got to see there attack first hand and up close...and i mean up close what they try to do is cut on the crease so if your D isnt solid your goalie will be taking shots from 2-5 feet away. If you D is solid then what they will do is have there attk and middies run around in a circle around the box and behind the net passing it to the right untill they get a clear shot.
And as for barron collier im very impressed with them and also rooting for them, i think it's official that no SWFL team can stand up to them so they basicly have to competition here anymore.

Pretty much saying that in a league of crap teams, the decent team is the best; saying that you guys are the best of the worst. I don't believe it personally, but thats what the east coast likes to say. East coast usually has about 3 powers, but West Coast can still pack a punch.
All i have to say is that i grew up on LI and i play on the "west coast', and listen, noone down here plays real lacrosse, not even barron. SWF lax is a bunch of good athletes who like lacrosse and take the skills they have from other sports like football and basketball and use them to beat the crap out of really terrible kids who cant play any other sport so they decide to play lacrosse because noone over here considers it a real sport. Any team on long island or anywhere in the northeast that goes 0 and four hundred million would come down here and smoke everyone. not taking anything away from you guys down here, im just saying dont talk like the "east coast" is actually good, they just suck less than the west coast, thats the bottom line. Besides St. Andrews and maybe that other team they compete with, there are no teams in florida who can hang with anyone. So east coast, chill out, cuz in the real spectrum of the lacrosse world, you guys are terrible, your just better than the west coast. Anyone who played at the TOC knows exactly what I am saying and cant argue with me. and one more thing, this goes out to everyone in florida, please stop throwing the words like "amazing", and "incredible" around like they mean something down here. Someone who is amazing or incredible at lacrosse is Matt Danowski or Jesse Hubbard, guys who play at a speed you cant even dream about, not that kid from canada, or the kid from riverdale. They arent that good, dont get me wrong they are ok, but chill out a little....

Is there any discussion about seeding the teams at the final 4 this year to avoid a situation where the #1 ranked team plays the #2 ranked team in the semi-final rather than having them meet in the final...That happened a couple of years ago and the game was so draining the winner wound up losing the finals (Dwyer 2 lost to Plant after beating Douglas 1!)
Are the district playoff schedules published any where? Laxpower seems to show District 4 round 1 being played at Benjamin, 4/15. If so nice to give the 3 seed a home game. How about Districts, 1,2,and3? Also because of PBC spring break all teams will have a two week lay-off. Good for injuries, bad for sharp play.

alright honestly, you cant judge fla lax on one game with some beat *** team in virginia who wnated a spring break vacation. Now that said, do i think fla is gonna be one of the powers in the future because of the athleticism down here and th fatc that you can play 24/7 365, yeah i do. But for right now, fla lax is horrific, compared to the rest of the country. Honestly ive been on both sides of things and you really dont understand. LI lax or maryland lax is a completely different game, its played a faster speed with better sticks, and with goalies who arent just the fat kids who signed up. so all i was really saying or the point i rewally wanted to make was that you can not call a kid down here amazing, because there is no way he is playing the same game that is being played in the part of the country where it counts, no offense. I know a kid last year who played for cantebury, or maybe a couple of years ago, w/e, ran **** down here, went to go play d3, and didnt even make the team, why, cuz it was a complete shocker to him how fast things were done and how good everyone around him was. so just dont throw the words amazing and incredible around too lightly without thinking about it first, ya kno?

true a lot of fl club isn't spectactular...but honestly i think if you take the top 3 teams (gardens douglas and dwyer) they are actually decent teams...not sayin they could go and beat teams from long island or maryland but those teams i mentioned are not bad at all and yes give florida about 10 or 15 years to get more of the athletes into lacrosse and florida will hopefully be somewhat close to the northern teams

yeah exactly, but you have to understand where i am coming from. first off i am the kid from riverdale from LI, and i have kids telling me im amazing all the time, and i mean come on, im good but im not that good. And then i go down to watch the canadian kid play and he was hurt and i ask a kid why he isnt playing and his response is "hes hurt, kids effing amazing though". If me or him were so amazing we would be going d1, not to saint leo or nassau community college. Its just that this game is totally different from the lacrosse thqat is played in the northeast, which is seriously where it counts because those kids are playing at the next level, it just gets old. You have to see it to beleive it because there is nothing i can say to you to make you understand. kids from LI and maryland know where to go with the ball two pases before it gets to them, kids here have to run around for 7 hours and then decide to go on a 1v1 and drop the ball because they are sick athletes but cant throw and catch. but yeah given a decade, and a bunch of youth leagues, and hopefully some enthusiastic parents who realize how expensive this crap is, and it will be a different story.

Lacrosse is just being born in FL compared to all the years its been up North. Being recruited is about 1. being good 2. exposure. Right now, FL isnt really a big recruiting hotbed (minus a few St. Andrews kids) Half the good kids from FLClub go D-II, but thats about it. As the game grows down here, the skill will follow. It may be a (very) long time, but FL will catch up with the Northeast.
danmlax17
03-29-2008, 12:58 PM
i agree about the exposure thing, but the bottom line is you cant gauge how good you are at lacrosse by playing in the fl club league, simply because the competition is not as good and there are not many teams here who have kids who can finish. and noone i have played or watched move off ball, NOONE. so being good in fl club league doesnt really mean anything, when it is a completely different game.

And as far as cheap shots...the PC coach is an upstanding guy that absolutely in years past...has gotten 2 gallons of production out of a one gallon group of athletes. If a player got in a cheap shot....that just exists....be glad that Weston has been dismantled. I saw a game (annual UBS Tournament) where they swung ( tomahawk style) late in a game against a Collier County team..against a defender that had had a great game.....and broke several fingers in a flagrant foul....that was generally encouraged by the coach. He had to have 3 surgeries to put his hand back together....all this with 5 seconds left in the game.
I am not demeaning the P.C. players, I just think the P.C. coach is a great coach. If he had Gulf Coast type player numbers....he would be the top program around. Just my .02. Good luck against P.C.

How long ago did you see this? 2 or 3 years ago, our best defender at that point, Danny Cundiff, got some fingers broke with very little time left in a game against Weston during the UBS, it was held at St. John Neumann that year. He had a bunch of surgeries and a metal rod in his hand because of it...our head coach was about 5 seconds away from tearing Weston's head coach into tiny pieces, i've never seen him so mad.

3 or so years ago sounds right...at St J N. I lost track of it after that. Too much travel.
I just saw the hit/ swing of the stick......as I was walking out of the stands...and saw him holding his hand coming off. It was a vicious blow. I was told a couple of weeks later that he was done...multiple surgeries needed.
Did he ever play again?

Similar records...Barron is 1-1 against top 10 teams and FM is 0-1. The Barron victory was in OT, so they could just as easily be 0-2.
FM has a history of getting under BC's skin. Complaining about goal colors....not letting late arrival kids play....coming from a mandatory school event...so this should be an emotional barn burner.
Does FM still have any 8th graders on the team? They have in the past..or at least rumored to.

If FM can put the ball on the goal, they will win. The BC defense has yet to work all year long ...with one exception...Douglas.
Douglas lit them up like the 4th of July. I forget the exact total 12 or so goals in Q1?
For FT Myers.......shoot the ball or get creamed.
Good luck to both teams.
don't even count that game. We wernt focused, or playing well. The defense is doing real well, expect a closer game next time. Douglas beat plant by 2 and we beat them by 1, it will be a game of wills. Torin tested only once? Plant wasnt a test?

Twice whatever, I am just saying that for FM to score they have to get the ball. Which will be a difficult task.

In what game did the defense do well? BC's best defense, is a great offense. The defense goes to sleep do to lack of work in the games I have seen. The ball lives down on the O end.
You don't count that game.......why? Because you weren't focused......does Dan Marino count the Super Bowl game when Joe Montana lit up the Dolphins defense.....wait, they were not focused. Lets have a do over!!
They all count. I am not saying the BC defense is poor, just not tested on a regular basis. In fact, they have been tested once, and they got beat.....but I will grant you..the Plant game was much closer.
Plant has 3 losses, to two teams ranked above BC. You beat them.....but in OT, which is a great win, but not convincing. Congrats. I harken back to last year at Disney......they dismantled you. Took you apart. Did you see the game......it got ugly.....fast.
Do not look past Ft Myers...I have seen them surprise you several times.
Sounds like you are on D. If you get by Ft Myers......better wear the full gear.
As always, good luck. Your girls team is the best in the state.......bar none.
