"The Fantastic Freshman - We WILL have a 2nd team HARDSHELLS focused on academic aces. Tourneys to be chosen based on IVY and Sub Ivy college attendance".

Have no idea what this is about. Their present 2021 team is pretty strong, could probably use a few stronger players at a few positions but are they getting that many tryout applications that they can add a few(or replace a few) on their present 2021 team and have enough to field a second 2021 team?.



And why does it make a point on the 2022's to say that there are spots and it's an open tryout? Is this because the team has been so bad and Ryan is afraid of getting exposed as a sub par coach? From what I hear there are several more defections from the team this year.
