Our area couldnt disagree more with your comments.
There is no compairison to what dd plays in travel to h.s.
She doesnt need to inflate her hitting stats against weak pitching and defenses. Spend her time gently throwing to not injury the first baseman.
Point is to not step backwards on the way. If a varsity letter is important to you do that.
Eldest pitcher did well in h.s. but colleges didnt care much for those high school stats. They wanted to see her against travel talent.
I am a HS coach and am afraid I have to agree with Bullseye. Some of the opposition in the conference are terrible. Whereas, you can almost schedule games vs. decent competition in TB. While stats are pretty much meaningless altogether, they really get inflated vs. those terrible conference teams. TB rules here. Someone in this thread said he tells his players to leave if they don't want to be there. If we did that we wouldn't have more than 1 team. Sad to say TB rules. They are just better overall teams.
