Can Top Prep Schools Beat A Good College Team?

[Greedo]

I always maintained that a good high school boys team could beat the UConn women.

In soccer the U-16 FC Dallas team beat the USA Women’s National Team in a scrimmage. So, different sport but that’s a group of high school aged boys beating the best women’s team in the world.

Wasn't this experiment Memphis last year? Come on guys. Would Alabama beat the Browns?

It was actually the Dallas under 15 team and they beat them easily. Women's sports can never be compared to men's sports, it's not fair to anyone.

A good college team? Really? Like an at large bid team? Vs high schoolers? Absolutely not. CCSU bs a top prep team? The prep team would lose by 20+

So you think this but don’t think a high ranked boys Highschool team can beat WCSU??? OK

I seriously doubt those teams would beat any D1 team. Over he course of a game I think strength and conditioning as well as coaching would eventually take a toll. And probably defense too. Few of those prep teams really play any defense to speak of. I’ve heard a number of college coaches say the 2 toughest adjustments kids make are playing defense and playing offense consistently against guys who play defense. So my overall take is they would lose pretty badly to pretty much any high mid major or above. Lose to low majors and maybe in 1 game a prep team could beat a low D1 team in a close game. They wouldn’t take 2 out of 3.

This is what I was going to post too so I will just agree. Any Prep schools trying to work against a trained D1 defense is going to have major problems. It would play havoc with them and make them look bad. They lack the discipline, training and teamwork as well as the experience and physical development of a D1 level team.
You don't see much "D" when you watch prep games; mostly running up and down the floor.

I wouldn't count the best prep team out vs. the worst d1 team...especially if the prep team was senior-laden.

I'll give you UHart or Quinnipiac. But CCSU was terrible! Lol

How do you get that I said a highly ranked high school team could beat WCSU?

A top high school team would run the UConn Women out of the building

UCONN Women were not any part of the question.

No.

Not the first thread that went off topic. Pretty near all of them do.

EO Smith would destroy the UCONN Women every year

Reminds me of when people asked if the 35-0 women's team could compete in DI men's hoops and I think it was Geno who reminded reporters that All-American/All-Everything Rebecca Lobo had her shot blocked so hard by one of the token male practice players one time that it almost broke her nose...

Which ball do they use? Real ball? Smaller women's ball?
