[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It really depends on the HS.

This is baseball, but my DD attends a HS that routinely goes to the state championships; it's just expected.

He's a freshman, and he's a star on his club team, but he decided to not even tryout his freshman year.

Meanwhile, some of his club teammates made their JV teams despite often not making the starting lineup on the club team.  I think their JV team for their HS was no-cut.

So its not just how good your DS is; its what's the level of competition at your specific school[/quote]

Its MUCH easier to make a JV baseball team than a JV basketball team at a large public HS. I have no idea about private schools. [/quote]

You missed my larger point:  it depends on the HS.

I wasn't comparing the sports.  I was saying that Kid A might be better than Kid B, but Kid B goes to a HS with a losing program and is able to make their team, while Kid A got cut.

It's not just comparing 2 kids.  The quality of the program of the HS is just as much a factor as is the ability of the athlete[/quote]

I'll add, that even though on average, I agree with you.  Its MUCH harder to make the baseball team at DS's large high school.  The level of talent is through the roof.

At which large public HS is it harder to make the JV baseball team than the JV basketball team? I honestly can't think of how that could possibly be the case. More kids play basketball everywhere and basketball rosters are much smaller. [/quote]
