………. Change my mind
Depends on what you are measuring. Only talking NEGHL teams? State and National championships? Number of players in the National program pipeline? Number of players put onto college rosters? Wiza**s clearly leading the pack in most categories. Eagles top teams putting players onto D1 rosers. CPC/VJW has placed lots of girls into college programs and have a different model. Then you have the Academies - Lovell and NAHA. All programs have their advantages/disadvantages.
Assabet was # 1 years ago, but will probably never recover from the horrible program it bacame. It still has the stank of the perps that ran and coached there.
Wiza**s are # 1, Eagles # 2, lots to argue about after that.
If we are talking success I would say the wiza**s. If we are talking development from the younger years then I would say Assabet. Breakers are a joke.
By the time you get to wiza**s u-14 - u-16 the major team is unrecognizable from youth hockey. Maybe 3-4 kids. From what I have seen they don’t develop they import.
