How come no Mass teams go to this tournament? Don't want to or can't get in? -
The best teams in the country go. Some international academy teams go. We don't have either of those in Massachusetts.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

I played in the Dallas Cup back in my U16/17 days with my Oakwood team from CT. We did well making it out of the group stages, and I can tell you WITHOUT a doubt... there is no team in MASS that can compete at that tournament.Originally posted by Unregistered View Post
No one team is good enough for that tournament. Maybe if two or three teams merged you could get a competitive team to do well there, maybe. We're talking the some of the best in the world attend this event. MASS cannot survive against that!Comment

The best in the world??? That's a slight exaggeration. Winner of U13 was Dallas Texans. Winner at U14 - Dallas Texans. Winner at U15 - Santa Clara Sporting (Cal N). Winner at U16 - Real So Cal. Winner at U17 - Lonestar Red. Winner at U19 - Dallas Texans.
The only group that a US team didn't win was the Super Group which Sao Paulo beat Vancouver Whitecaps 4-0 in the finals.Comment

So in other words, can a team from Mass compete with teams from California and/or Texas. Probably not.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment
