It just would serve the team better if the same 8 girls were not in the whole game. You have to develop the whole team, otherwise you shortchange the program. you can't continually count on the same group. give everyone a shot to help the team, build morale and better your program.
I don't know what happened previously but it looks like the team has improved each year since 2011-2012 where they were 5-9 or something like that. Most teams play their best players to try to win. Are people saying that the best players are not playing? Both of my daughters and my son played when it was their turn to play. I think the coaches duty is to win games and the travel coaches duty is to develop players and get kids who want to play in college recruited.
