Enough about East Meadow! There are many teams in Nassau and Suffolk who have good programs and girls to make for an exciting fall season regardless ofthe divisions. Wish them well in their new league and move on already!

One more about East Meadow, and simply from curiosity; do they still have two teams? Are both doing RPL?

If we want to talk about other teams, does anyone know anything about the new CJSL teams?

I have a vested interest in D2 (Nassau), anyone care to share their opinion on that division? Someone already said it should be a real tight race (something I agree with) but does anyone have a different opinion? A team that we should look out for?

Still not sure who is doing LIJSL plus any of the other leagues out there, anyone have any insights there?

For those who are doing multiple leagues (kudos) how do you plan to handle the extra travel and games? Especially if you have other kids?

We played them in D2. Massapequa was the best team to me, but there was not much separation between them and the next 2, which were HBC and East Meadow, so I would agree with your assessment.

D2 is really a toss up. I have seen at least 6 of these teams play. If they were to play 3 seasons in a row with the same 10 teams, I think there would be 3 different division winners and possibly 3 different runner ups. We'll see how many games end up in ties and how many games are won by 1 goal at the end of the season. I would say this, there are 2 teams that are unlikely to come in the top 5 next season in Div 2 based on assessing their past season. GC & LV. I think any of the other 8 teams could finish 1-2. It will be fun to watch how it all plays out. I would be interested in reading other comments if someone makes a case for the 2 teams who will emerge 1-2 and head to Division 1 for U11 Springtime.

D3 is really competitive, its going to be very hard for any of the teams to make the climb to division 2 because the division is so competitive. Just proves that if you were misplaced in the spring being put too low by the lijsl cracker jack staff and you didnt run away with your d3/d4/d5 division your climb back to the top d1/d2 is going to be very tough. Need to get to d2 if you want top 4 at the merge.
