Not true, but keep making those $50k tuition payments.
What school is 50K?
Thayer and pretty much every other ISL school
You think the hockey players at these schools pay full tuition..that's just grand! My son attends an ISL school and can assure you 75% of the team pays a small fraction of that and the ones who do pay more, have no problem paying more. Your son should apply and find out where you fall.
Thanks for the lecture professor. My sons are already on an isl team. Ask your kid to point them out to you next time he’s riding the pine.

Am I wrong? No.. so stfu.. “ride the pine”. Grow up.
No hype here, just pointing out freshmen are playing high level prep & catholic MA hockey.
Again, making the team and even getting ice time does not make a case for claiming the kid is holding his own. Sure very few hopeful Hannifin type 9th and 10th grade Dmen are out there but most (like 989%) can not handle the game at that age.
4-5 SJP freshmen went to V, opening up slots on F team. The Freshmen boys who didn’t make it should train harder and try again next year. They are known to take another look soph year and take kids who improved.
Could be right that it was only forwards but there seemed to be a lot of frosh pulled up this year. Usually it’s 1-2, not 4-5. They took no new sophomores and I think only 2-3 off last year’s JV team. Anyway, whoever the kids are who did not make it as a freshman, just train hard over the next year and try out again (or you could stop playing I guess but that’s no fun!)
I hope you’re not under the illusion that SJP hockey (especially Freshman & Varsity) is merit-based. (And no, my kid didn’t get cut). Dir Player development for Wings is SJP asst coach so Wings kids get taken as freshman (along w/SJP middle school kids). Same w/Cyclones coach. And a ton of people keep kids back so there may actually be an ‘01 as a freshman. Crazy, but every year there’s a freshman W/ a driver’s license and full beard. Meanwhile there’s a sophomore who was clearly slated to go V but got sent back to JV to accommodate freshman (again, NOT my kid).
There were 6 freshmen at SJP that made varsity. 3 forwards, 2 defenseman and 1 goalie. 5 of those kids played for the Cyclones. The son of assistant coach of the Cyclones is the goalie and he is an "04. SJP lost a bunch of kids so it looks like they went young to fill those spots.

All six freshmen are 2004s. No repeaters.
Didn't realize there were any high end 04's on the Cyclones. Where do they play out of
Looking at my hockey rankings for what it's worth. Cyclones were 3rd in New England (sans Mass) behind MFR and SPA. If they were in MA, they'd be 5th behind SSK, RR, ECW and BA. They beat RR 2 out of 3 and lost to both SPA and BA. Saw them win the prep cup with three shutouts games in the playoffs. Some kids can play...looks like SJP got a few of them.
Assistant Cyclones Coach is Assistant SJP coach (goalie and Brother in law to another Assistant coach) took his goalie son and his friends, a couple of sophomores equal or better (and no my kid did not get cut).
Varsity players are angry and Frosh coach is angry. So yes it matters, how did it work out for them playing Hingham today-laughable. Two of the frosh forwards have stone feet....
5 freshman players from one team, guess players should not go to SJP with any thought of a fair tryout.
You're spending $25K for a great education at SJP. Your kids are just not going to play hockey there. Sorry, but friends and family is alive and well at the high school level too!
