It’s clear you don’t know how some of those players ended up at LVS. The 4 Farmingtom players have played with LVS kids in the summer for years and decided on their own to transfer because Farmingtom was such a mess under coach Marsh.

When you have "Futures" that have been cut by their HS JV team, you have to wonder about the selection criteria.

I didn't realize that points scored was the only indicator of a player's worthiness to be deemed "All Metro". I always thought a player's impact on the game could be made in ways that don't show up in the box score. Perhaps I am too old fashioned.

I don't understand how a girl choosing to play on a team with teammates at her level (a boys A team) is all that different from a high-level...
