Brown Showcase was last weekend. Any comments etc

Girls had a good time. Some parents were a bit stressed because the playoff schedule wasn't put out in advance. Some players had to pull out to make flights, etc.

The talk the coaches panel gives on Saturday was very enlightening for those who showed up.

Camp was pretty good too.

Camp was well run. Digit was informative, energetic and available. College Coaches working the Bench(Princeton, UCONN, Bowdoin, RIT, BU, UNH, Brown). Coaches in stands(Holy Cross, Colgate, BU, Conneticut College plus 2 others I didnt recognize)

The most interesting thing was the lack of local players. Maybe 10 out of 8 teams. I dont think I saw a single assabet player. I diont know if this was by design or if the local players were doing some other camp or tournment?

There was a team for the festival that was basically made up of all california girls and there was another that was basically all canadian.

Agree entirely with the comments about Camp and Digit.

I know at least 1 Assabet 2nd team player that I saw out there, but none from the top 16U or 19U team.

It is nice for kids from elsewhere to get an opportunity like this. I think the coaches like seeing the kids outside of their back yard as well.

The two Polar Bear teams were at Magog and several Mass players there as well, playing either on the Western Mass Pride, NAHA, or the Boston East Coast Eagle teams

I wasn't taking names and numbers, but there were a couple of the Canadians on the Orange team who have been fielding phone calls.

I didn't get to watch any of the camp, but I think the Orange team (being primarily Canadian and not camp attendees) had fresher legs.
