ok here we go. Most varsity teams that bring up a middles school player do so for one reason. They need to fill a roster. Districts with two or more feeder middle schools have plenty of bodies and don't need to pull up Small schools that are jr/sr combined have lower enrollment therefore they need younger girls to field a team. Schools like west bab pull up for almost every sport doesn't mean your kid is a superstar. schools like west islip or garden city are large and have plenty of grade appropriate athletes to play so girls will have to wait even if they are the best athlete in their grade or even more skilled than a 9th or 10th grader.
