ISL boys soccer

[Unregistered]

MA has several new recruits filling in the shoes of their best seniors from last year. Plus strong incoming juniors and seniors. MA should win ISL and the class A championship again this year. They will repeat having zero "goals against" in ISL because they will have a defense and GK just as strong as last year. Not as many "goals for" as their offense won't be as strong as last year but they will still dominate ISL and win the NEPSAC

Whoever wrote this is simply trying to get people to attack the "cocky milton parents". MA surely has reloaded but following last year's act will be impossible due to losing essentially the whole starting lineup. Expect them to compete for an ISL title and maybe make it to the class A finals if things are really coming together for them. Their goal differential will be much lower this year and they will have to break a sweat to win some ISL games like the other top teams in the league.

?!?
No - ma has reloaded well and several juniors on the lineup from last year's starters. They'll do very well . I would put them as having the best odds of winning both titles. But we'll see - like someone said - prep schools reload well

MIlton, BH and Nobles have a strong roster this year. Top 3 .

I agree that MA has recruited some excellent players. ISL and NEPSAC class A teams will be shocked yet again this year. GK, new defenders, new midfielders. AB, AST , LL etc will not be missed. I doubt that any of the other ISLs reloaded as well as MA.

The only player MA will miss is JO. Remains to be seen how their offense will change to accommodate that. Chris Kane has added equal if not better replacements for the other players.

What does Sebs return on the back line? Keeper?

Well then let's see them have an undefeated season.

have any players from the ISL had college success recently? Does the ISL produce D1 college talent?

Go look at the player stats for Harvard, BC and Dartmouth.

translation= the two best 2014 ISL players had very good freshman years at Dartmouth and BC last year, and Harvard's captain is from RL. Harvard also has a couple of incoming freshman from Milton (they're rostered, although i think they're walk-ons). Harvard also has another starter from BBN although I'm not sure if he ever played there (he played Revs). You have to laugh at all the blow-hards here who said TD would never cut it as a D1 striker- guess the BC coach knows a bit more than these experts

Those boys following the prep school/NPL track have a comparable record of going D1 as those boys who played DAP. Dig up the 2016 commits thread and you will find many prep/NPL commits to D1 programs.

JO did not contribute to 18 straight games with no goals against. I suspect they will miss the back line and mids.

You Milton parents are a special group.

Lawrence scored 3 against them so it was not zero goals against. They also will be missing ast as he is spending year abroad so that is a big loss. They will be in the mix if top 4 but it will be a challenge to go undefeated in ISL. I don't see Brooks, RL, or Sebs contending . None of them did anything against bench from MA last year so no reason to believe they will suddenly do better than MA this year.

LA was the only ISL team that scored against MA last year?? I thought BH and BBN each had a goal. Could someone point me to the scores? Who were the LA players that scored against MA? Are any of them incoming players this year or have they graduated?
