I realize that the top 02s weren't in Lewisville, but curious about any assessments of Lone Star 02 Red after they won the Texas Cup title over Andromeda, Sting (Rezaie) and Solar Chelsea (Formerly Sco2gio) over the weekend?

Lonestar 02 Red is a good team, but I know that Fever Red 02 played them in a tournament this summer and beat them 1-0.

Yes we did beat them, but they are a really good team. I mentioned in a Labor Day post how good they are. We, Fever, haven't played the top LHD1 teams in a few months, but I can tell you that this Lonestar team can hang with the best of them. Their possession is the best I have seen in the 02 group. Yes that includes LHD1 02's. I know an earlier poster said they have a direct style of play, that wasn't the case when we played them 3 months or so ago. They moved the ball beautifully. It was impressive. Their biggest weakness was in the final third of the field. They just couldn't figure out how to get a scoring opportunity. They continually turned the ball over around the top of the 18 and couldn't figure out how to get numbers forward. Maybe they were missing some forwards over Labor Day, that then made it up here for the Texas Cup. What ever the reason, looks like they figured out how to score. This team is big, physical, fast and skilled. They are an excellent team. We just made the most of our scoring opportunities when we played them.

Albion from down south, is a very good team as well. We tied them in the finals and lost in PK's. Something else to remember is that the southern teams are getting their first taste of 11v11. Maybe that is why Lonestars had a difficult time in the final third over Labor Day.

Refreshing to see a parent being honest and giving props to another team. Thanks TMCC.

There are several posts where they'll say, "they are a good team, but we beat them. They couldn't stop our elusive forward and are extremely fast & tall GK"

My daughter plays on the Albion team mentioned. We played that same Lonestar team over Labor Day and beat them 3-0, so I have to assume they've improved since then, or we just had it all clicking that day. We were scheduled to play in the Texans fall festival, but obviously, weather did not cooperate. Looking forward to playing some of you in the coming seasons....lots of good Dallas teams in the 02 group.

Probably a combination of both. All I remember is Albion kicked our butt. As the other poster mentioned, however, we were playing 8v8 as late as the spring of 2013. Two 8v8 teams were combined to form Lone Star Red 02. The defense came along rather quickly. We have given up three goals in 15 games since the Labor Day tourney. The offense has been a more lengthy experiment. We are lucky to be in a state, where there are so many good and elite 02 teams.

I figured Lonestar was still meshing over Labor Day. Maybe we'll see you at the Jr. ECNL event in February. The group of 02 girls across the state looks to be pretty strong.

Also it appears that the Lonestar Red '02 team is playing up in U13 down in Austin and winning almost all their games.

Don't give us too much credit for playing up. It is the only way we can simulate the kind of competition we would get in Dallas or Houston playing the 02s.

Taking nothing away from Lonestar 02 at all and I have not seen them play. My thoughts on the older Lonestar teams is that they tend to combine or align their teams into talent levels earlier and better than NT does at the lower age groups. When we used to play the top Lonestar team it was distinctively better than two two which was better than team three etc.

I know I was told that was what happens in Club soccer but it does not really pan out that way in NT. I think some of this has to do with the fact that Lonestar is the big dog in Austin. More competition in NT (more clubs, more quality coaches, more numbers) means that kids tend to stick with coaches or clubs more. Could also be geography. Much harder to get from the mid cities or Allen or Dallas to a top team in Frisco than it may be to consolidate those practices in Austin. There may be 2 or 3 Sting teams or Texans or Solar teams that are all solid and the difference between one and two etc may be not as great. Even at the older age groups, the Clubs here do not consolidate talent like one would think. It is very common to see two or three Sting or Solar teams near the top of an age bracket in several age groups.

My opinion only and there are multiple ways to build teams and run clubs. Regardless, I do know that when you are going to play a top Lonestar team, you better strap it on and get ready because they will get after you.

After this weekend, it might be fair to see the south is catching up with the north.

Lonestar a true possession team , skilled bigger girls. Probably lacking in speed and finishing , but very good all around. I always thought most of competition lies in North texas area for the state, but now I'm not so sure. Our top team is tieing Austin ans Southern teams. Should be interesting down the road in ECNL .

Albion 02G Adv lost to Solar Chelsea 0-2 on Sunday. Challenge 02 Red beat Defeeters 1-0 (I think) and Sting 02 tied TFC 1-1 (I think). From the perspective of an Albion parent, we had a pretty tough draw with FC Dallas, Solar Chelsea and Lonestar. We really enjoyed the quality of play and just wish we could replicate more frequently in Houston...but the city doesn't have that depth of talent. Hope to see some of you again at the Texans Easter tourney.

Well, you could start by not playing down to u12 (since you play u13 in league play) in your own warmup cup. Smile

Very true...I have no idea why we, or our own club, did that. It served no purpose for us.
