Depends on what your daughter is looking for and what makes her happy - playing time or bragging rights. If HS will be the end of lax for her, I would say play as much as she can now. If she is hoping to play in college, might be worth working with the more advanced girls every day and sacrificing game days for a year. It's really a personal decision.
