The ACC remains the best conference in the country by a large margin.

The overall greatness of the conference will ultimately make the content on the ACC network the best of any conference network as well, whatever the format of the network ends up implemented as...

Title IX

cant wait to get home and tell the girl that softball practice has been cancelled indefinitely...as i rip the lax stick out of her brothers hand and give it to her as we head to the backyard to work on some stick drills.

Get her on a rowing machine. Rowing has 20 total schollies spread over a roster of over 40 athletes, the most available for any women's team.

Over 2500 HS currently offer Boys LAX, and it's growing every year.

I assume that's a typo for girls.

Girls is over 2200, and counting.

 

[KaiserUEO]

Girls is over 2200, and counting.

So there's my point, less HS girls teams, yet more D1 programs.

There has to be a talent disparity.

I'm 'Xtremely' aware of the popularity and strength of the boys/Mens programs, having played myself over 30+ years ago.

 

[Moontan]

There has to be a talent disparity.

Of course there is. The top programs get most of the top talent.
The others are looking for the star player that wants to help establish a program (or are afraid of not getting playing time at a top program).

The young ladies that end up playing at Syracuse, Northwestern, Florida, Maryland, etc. all know how to play.

Time for Gary to get his daughter a national championship!
