Week one of the LH season

Another season is about to begin. This weekend marks the start of another "fun filled" season. With some of the heavy hitters being gone who will be the new big dogs in D1? Who will dominate D2? And does anyone need to show up to the D3 games, everyone knows who is winning it.
Predictions anyone???

Who are the heavy hitters gone from D1?

DTS will dominate D1 just like they did last season. I know I'm going out on a limb on that pick.  Only team gone from last season is Solar Blue. It will be wide open from 2-10. Texas Spirit is my pick for top of the bunch behind DTS.

Sorry thought mote were different. Guess they just moved clubs. Any thoughts on other divisions?

Good luck everybody this weekend! Manager's pack your corner flags and print your game reports! Summer is over.

Interesting weekend results in the rain.

Do tell.. What happened?

C'mon man... Really? I thought you had some scoop. Did death star really barely hammer out a 3-0 win or did they give half the team the week off and play 7v9? Glotz trying to prove something or did the rest of death star fill out their roster when AG gave them the week off?

D1 based on scores looks like about what I expected. Some of the D1 teams really gonna struggle this year and it will be a fight to the bottom 2 for 4 of the teams I think.

D2 team results looked as expected. Expected higher goal totals from a couple of teams though and didn't expect as many ties as we saw. D2 parity at it's finest.
D3 West bumble bees put on an impressive show it appears Did the team upgrade, just get better, or did they just play a team that wasn't quite ready? Too bad only 2 of the D3 bumble bees can move up to D2 next year. What a shame it is the decisions of some affects the growth of others who legitimately earned a chance to move up.

Can anyone confirm or deny the results I heard from the LH D1 DTS vs FCD game:

DTS won 3-1 because of 2 FCD own goal errors and one of the FCD key players was sidelined for part of the game with injury. I heard this and hope it can give our team a glimmer of hope in their upcoming game.

There was an own goal and a rebound put in from a free kick from 4yds out off of an inadvertent pass back to the keeper. Both came from pressure though, so they were legit. FCD kept DTS under constant pressure in the second half. FCD was a little unlucky (DTS keeper made good plays) not to have 1 or 2 more goals, but their 1 goal came from a PK also. All in all, DTS won the first half, FCD won the second half. Which the score reflects.
On the injury, yes FCD had a girl go out for a little while. She was able to come back in though.

Looks like someone created a brand new ID to post a question, then hurriedly logged on and answered their own question.   Classic......

Weird response Pele98, just fairly new to Texas for our family. But thanks S3 for your take on the game. Heard some parents talking at practice last night, so I thought it can't hurt to ask. I guess some questions shouldn't be brought up?

Pele - I think my response was to give credit to DTS. But don't let me get in the way of your conspiracy. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Multiple Personality.........

The only way to make sure I am getting the correct answer is to answer my own questions.

First half of the LH season is over... What surprises were out there? Predictions for promotion/relegation?

Solar F...they beat Sting JG 1-0, and then give up 10 to Sting Black...

And Sting JG is definitely getting relegated...can't seem to score...Volleyballs/Leotards...

Interesting to me is little parity in 1 or 3, and a lot of parity in 2. Liddell in 3 is a bit of a surprise to me.

Always Messing around.

seriously... don't go down his rabbit hole...

Ahh ok someone is just messing around stirring up the pot then?

The reindeer games coontinue in the pyramid scheme. What happened to the 4 SB players that was on the relegated team. Did they get a pass assuming they weren't in QT.

I wouldn't say there's little parity in D1. After DTS and FCD East, there are five teams within 3 points of each other.

FCD East is doing quite well based on their finish last year
