    Didn't Stars have a must-win game to make ECNL playoffs the same day they played Aztec?

      Why don’t you answer your own question pops. Who cares anyway? Aztecs stomped Blue that day. Maybe the girls can write their college essay about it. Why are we still talking about the outcome of one soccer game as the defining moment for anything at all? Looking forward to the fall season!

          No, there’s been several other wins over the years that were certainly bigger than this one sided blowout. Try to compete with us next time, make us sweat at least a little bit.

            Curious if Aztecs has enough girls to field an 08 team next year after being gutted by Stars?

                No they won't. They were top heavy.

                  You clearly don’t know the team very well (or Stars gossip misled you about who’s coming and who rejected their heavy recruiting) but all will become clear in the fall.

                    When they continue to beat up on terrible Impact teams doing a disservice to those few misguided souls who stuck around a year too long.

                        If this team relatively stays together, grows even more as a team, continues to beat the top NE teams by a large margin in tournaments.....than would thier recruiting oppurtunities be the same? Especially NE recruiting.

                          No, not the same. The big leagues have showcase events where universities from all over the country show up. If you are looking to stay local d3 then sure… doesn’t matter. You may love your team now but its going to change, it just will. Nobody stays together and lower leagues will ALWAYS lose a % of players that want a bigger stage. This is why town teams felll apart years ago.

                            Usually all it takes is 1-3 top players leaving and teams quickly fall apart because the rosters have no depth. They can't pull in other good players because they've also moved up the ladder. Then other families start to question if they should stay. Some kids decide to focus on other things.

                            A tale as old as time....

                              Take a look at program rosters where your kid might be interested (as well as any placements for the club). Most will say where players played club. Don't just look at the roster but who actually PLAYS. If the starters are mostly ECNL/top club players, lots of accolades? It's going to be very difficult to crack that roster let alone actually play.

                              The level of competition in the lower leagues just isn't as strong as the top ones. College ball is fast and intense and coaches want players who can handle that. Training with better players makes you a better player. However, if your kid is more a low D1 or D3 level player then they can possibly get recruited. Typically a lower level team might have a few players land lower level spots, but never an entire roster. Getting recruited will so take more work because the coach exposure won't be as strong. You can look at college coach lists at events like Jeff Cup or an EDP showcase to see what types of schools attend

                                How many FC Stars are playing outside New England D1 with scholorships and playing meaningful minutes?
                                Just trying to figure out if " the juice is worth the squeeze, "
                                How about Ecnl-R?
                                Data please?
