My daughter went public we live in Baltimore. Recruiting is done thru club but if you play in one of the big private school leagues, that counts too. Like IAAM. I forget what the Washington league is called. They’re all that matter below the Mason Dixon line for leagues. Everything else is a crapshoot.
I found that some schools will look at private school girls first and pick or you have to be a super solid public school individual player. But if your girl is good don’t worry about it. You’ll know if she’s good or not.
