Quote: [....Even though Cesa added 2 or 3 D1 College players to their roster before playoffs....
If the players were born after July 31 1991 they are U18 players for the 2009-1010 seasonal year. It doesn't matter whether they go to high school, college, or whatever. There are high school seniors playing on U17 teams all over the place. I don't see what difference it makes!
You don't see what difference it makes??? It sends a message to the kids in our state that winning is all that matters. It is not against the rules, but it is unethical, unsportsmanlike, unfair to players on both teams, and not in the spirit of the game.
The difference is the high school seniors playing U17 have played with their teams all year.
The difference is that they are added for the purpose of winning State. If you need numbers, there are several quality U18 players whose team did not make it to playoffs available to play.
One of the cesa college players at our game was sent over as the "captain" of their team and introduced herself as a "guest player" for State Cup.
Rae...I'm not sure your reason for asking for names, but you should/can get them privately.
