Heard over and over again, so and so was home, so and so was working so and so was elsewhere. Not to sure, but many of these teams knew about these games months ago. At some point you have to have the High School team come first.

I heard teams (Yorktown for one) told Sr. players, if they didnt attend certain games they cant become captain



These games are also a great way to blend the youth of a program with the experience. Look at the teams in the finals, teams with depth. Leadership of the players need to be there but not at the expense of a college trip or commitment. It was a weekend that exemplifies the phrase Battle of Attrition. Survival of the fittest.
