Fact- it has happened

Also realize it is not always middle school age to varsity, sometimes middle school age to JV. Many kids age 13/14 can handle a small hop to 15/16. Agree on varsity however, physical gap gets more significant.


If you saw the gc and manhasset jv you would know that it is no place for experimenting and they don't need any help from below. Most of those JV starters would start varsity elsewhere. Patience is a virtue. Thanks anyway.


Please do some research. GC has in fact brought up younger players (even 8th grade to varsity) . Go back to 1999/2000 and more recent, not many, however some very good accomplished individuals.
