Well I do not see huge numbers of cuts at any age. They have 2 teams at every grade but 2019. And looking at the website they have 20 or less names on the MD and VA rosters. I think they do see the high school format that some of the other larger clubs do. With a large roster that is fluid with who is on the team. This way they can see who will be able to attend a tournament then make a top team then the rest play for a second team that week. I think with the increase of high school summer tournaments, prospect days and showcases that the kids want to/need to attend. A fluid roster with a large number is the best way to not get caught with your pants down.
