For the record, this portion of the thread started because I asked about the STA DA rosters. Purely out of curiosity as to who was on it as my daughter knows/knows of several who might have gone out for it. When I saw that 14 of the players came from last year’s USYS NL roster I don't think it’s too much of a stretch to wonder who is on the new version of that team. And, I’m sorry, but again I don’t think it’s unreasonable to wonder why that roster hasn’t been updated as we approach mid-September.
I understand that there may be some confusion as actually there were other posts touching on potential issues with STA that didn’t come from me. I wrote in one post that STA is a good club and interactions and/or observations that I’ve had with their coaches have been positive. I didn’t comment on any player or result of any game.
*** I just deleted about three paragraphs about why the negativity coming my way was probably because I was attributing all this to STA’s affiliation with John Newman. But then I realized that no one here would care. Newman is bad for youth soccer in the broad sense that his model is turning more kids away from soccer than bringing them in but you don’t care about that. Here everyone’s kid is getting a D1 scholarship and a cup of coffee with the national team. So I’m done- reply, don’t reply, either way I’m not reading. Peace.
