My son was on that team and as parents going in, we knew our kids would make the team. Why do you think less and less players try out for events like Under Armor every year. They have become a waste of time and money. Evaluations should be made by a group of Long Island HS coaches rotating every year.

Yeah, let the HS coaches handle it.... because they have proven that they are above reproach... give me a break, many of the HS coaches have their own agenda and not all are good coaches. The reality is that it’s hard to find evaluators who have no bias or preconceived opinions/notions. That said, there should not be parents of players who are trying out involved in any aspect.
