Wasn't there to see the last game between us (DD's injury), but everything that I have seen and heard the Stingrays '97 is a very quality team. 12U is fun this year because of the parity. There are numerous teams that can make the arguement for where they stand. Makes it fun though because if you want to compete you have to bring it every tournament, as we learned at Vipers tournament with CO Ice. Going to be a fun summer with alot of competitive games.

I don't have a problem posting my vote. I will be honest I did not realize how well the Glory had been playing. I did put them in my top 10 though.

We will forgive you this one time, just don't let it happen again... LOL. As I said before, alot of parity and not every coach can see all others teams play, or even keep track of how they are doing. Hopefully by the end of the season most of the top teams will have played each other and it will all work itself out.

I say most of the teams in the top ten are going to always stay there, its the 11 through 20 that should have most of the changes. Plus teams will get more votes based on the groups voting, ie southern ohio, central ohio etc..

Please don't get that started, you know how things spread on here... LOL. She has a torn miniscus and will have to have surgery to repair it. The good news is, she can play until surgery and will only be out 3 or 4 weeks once she has the surgery. However, pitching is out for the most part, as it hurts her to bad. Guess that is not all bad, but still nervous about surgery and healing given that she is not done growing. Going to Beacon Orthopedics in Cincinnati to get a second opinion and they will probably end up doing the surgery.

Agree w/ Doom15 - I don't mind making my vote public as well. I don't have my paper in front of me but I believe I had 8/9 of the 10. I had: 1 Red 2 Static 3 Glory 4 Oh Ice 5 Orange & cant remember the exact order of others. The order of my top 5 were solely based on this weekend's results in Dayton & thats not to disrespect the Marysville tourney as my team has not played any of them yet - but the rest of my top 10 had most of those teams in it as well.

As everyone has mentioned, there are a lot of very good teams at 12U & I can see this order changing weekly. All you can do is to try to bring your "A" game weekly.

Good luck to all!!!

I got to thinking about this and honestly would be hesitant to show it. The reason is some people would take offfense to however I voted no matter what I did. Certain teams will always get votes based on the name. If not a team with a well known name the road is tougher for sure. Its like this in every sport with a poll especially college football. In closing I would suggest monday in this section post how you did last weekend.

I was at Dayton this weekend, my daughter is 14U. I had the opportunity, with time between games to take in some 12U. I thought the Lasers Red and Cincy Static were in a class all by themselves...at least on Sunday when I watched. However, from what I saw, the Glory and the Ice were pretty impressive also. It was fun getting to see some top notch 12U games, I hope everyone keeps up the good work!
