[Unregistered]

Some teams return to league play feeling good after NWCL play, and others return licking their wounds.

Usonians against anyone because they are a good team and everyone wants to beat them. They play the ice this weekend also.

I believe everyone wants to beat everyone. I don't think anyone thinks the Usonians any different. Crush already beat them so I'm sure it's actually the other way around. Westside hasn't been the team to beat since U11. Since then it's kind of all been equal.

This sounds like a child posting so try not to be too harsh on her. She's probably just proud of her little team.

Usonians had one good year and even then had some close matches. It has always bee hype with that team. Good yes unreal no. Though I think Onyx is better....Getting to confident is never good. Lots of talk of their greatness. Just keep working hard.

Team pride is what its about so good luck to the player who posted that this weekend.

Best U14 game will be THUSC Mercury vs Eastside Tottenham

Pride and Over confident are very different things.

I completely agree with you. There are no worries about the Onyx team getting over confident. That is a group of extremely hard working girls. They know that other teams can catch them at anytime. They also are aware that competition in Oregon is not the best and that if they want to compete with the best they have to continue to work hard. They have their sights set on California again!

That's awesome. I actually hate seeing teams like this fall from grace. I am cheering for the Onyx!

They seem to be a hard working team. I have seen several of the team out at the Rec center with a trainer doing extra work at least once a week. Often i have spent time time watching them during my kids WSM practice.

I'm cheering for them, too! They are not my daughter's team or club, but I think they could beat any of the U13G premier teams. Keep working hard, ladies!!

How classy! Great way to give Onyx a compliment, by putting down the whole U13 Girls premier group! It looks like you are trying to create animosity towards Onyx by "dissing" the entire U13-G group!

Ha! I'm not trying to create animosity towards Onyx at all. I apologize if it came off that way. I just think they are a great team and it would be fun to watch them compete in the U13 group (as others have already suggested) because there are great, competitive teams at U13G...since they don't seem to be challenged in Oregon at U12. That's all. I didn't mean to "dis" anyone.

I'm sorry for jumping on that...I think I'm getting so used to seeing people trash talking other teams, I'm now not able to just see a compliment as simply a compliment!
