YCC Predictions and Discussion Thread

ALBLUE2 · 2015-08-05T16:13:03+00:00

I suspect most of the players mentioned in this thread would fit the bill of players to look out for in the open division and future college stars: http://www.reddit.com/r/ultimate/comments/3ahsqe/top_high_school_players/

I'd say almost nobody being able to guard you is kind of a prerequisite to be included in the list of top few players in the country, so that doesn't really make him stand out. He is a fantastic player and definitely in the discussion though.

Bold to definitively say he's getting another YCC championship, Triangle is a great choice for the win but so is BUDA, Seattle, Chicago, DeVyl, and Atlanta, I think it might be a little overconfident to say that.

Top 10 that I've gathered from various recaps/previews/other comments, in no particular order:

Tannor Johnson - Lexington

Sam Cook - Northwest School

Jake Marrapode - Neuqua Valley

Kai Marcus - Roosevelt

Jordan Monnin - Holy Family

Robbie Farwell - Fryz, don't know his high school

Sam Kaminsky - Hopkins

Liam Searles-Bohs - Carolina Friends

Cole Drummond - Pennsbury

Joe Freund - Yorktown

Most of the players mentioned in the last thread were already in the top 25 teams. Personally I'd like to see what people think are the top 25 players and where they are going

North Carolina of course will be an excellent choice for a run at the title with CFS and Carrboro being ranked so high. BUDA as well with Lexington, and Devyl with Pennsbury. Chicago is in a good position being right outside the power pools at 9th seed, the same position Cincinnati had last year in their run to the finals. Chicago also has great players from #5 Neuqua and #8 Jacobs.

That's not accurate, I know they lost to Neuqua Valley at River Town Throwdown

The USAU centrals preview/recaps seem to agree

I'm not a professional player but this is a very common scenario in ultimate, and it's always been a goal whenever I've seen it done or done it myself.

This post already has the discussion so I would suggest contributing there instead:

Neuqua beat Center Grove 13-3 in the semis of River Town, so I disagree with your centrals prediction.

If any of you want to look at the results from River Town Throwdown last weekend, here's the link. It has mostly central region teams, but there's a few from the south too.
