There was one player on the 2019 Madlax National Team at Young Guns who was in 9th grade this past school year and played all year on Madlax 2018, but he will repeat 9th grade in private school in the fall so he has "reclassed" to 2019. And there is another who was on Madlax 2018 all year and will continue into 10th grade in public school this fall (class of 2018) but has "reclassified" to 2019 for Club purposes by saying he will do a PG year.
How is that possible? It seems comical enough already, but now it is a free option for any 10th grader to say I plan to do a PG year and that is good enough to pass for him to play down a grade? That is truly pathetic.
It's 100% true. Madlax also has a 2020 public school kid playing on their 2021 team. And a 2017 public school kid on their 2018 team. And more.3
