I can’t dispute NJ’s quality of HS programs. I’m also looking at raw numbers. NY/NJ metro area still has top notch talent, it’s just less in raw numbers than ten years ago.

St Louis is a huge growth area, as is Indianapolis. Texas as well, which helps that Charlotte North came from Dallas. It’s really, graphically speaking, a flattening curve line spreading where the players are coming from.

An important aside is the 2028 Olympics. This version of the game is not the game we play in the US. It’s a middie game. It will be very interesting the route they go picking the team.

Good luck in your spring championships.
