My son plays for the 2017 Terps. When we play our games there are 6-8 Terps Black team players that also play with us. None of the player on my sons Terps team play with the Terps black team. The 2 teams don't play in the same tournaments or even on the same weekend so that the strongest players can play on both teams. I don't agree with it and will not have my son play with the express next year but after 5 years of being a part of the express I know that the rosters are very fluid.


If you are a terp parent you would know that the strongest players from the black team were not put on regular terps team roster nor will ever play for both teams. These kids are the impact players on tht team. Those on both rosters do not get a ton of playing time for the most part and playing on regular terps gives them more opportunity for playing time. .


Correct.
