She’s why we jumped ship! In hindsite, my dd wishes she had tried out for BLC bc now she feels like Capital is essentially locked down for the ‘30s and ‘31s[/quote]Best thing you can do is tell your DD to suck it up buttercup and not play into the woe is me.  
She has 9? months to create a gap between herself and others.  
9 months to do 10% (or 25?) more than she'd normally do on reps, focus each day.
9 months to make incremental gains in the weight room that stack up like Jenga blocks.
9 months to watch and then train/try to emulate both the fundamentals and useful experimentation that she can easily witness daily nowadays on her phone.
Buy a calendar, stick it on her bedroom wall, and circle the presumed date and have her number the countdown every day.

If she's a focused athlete, she'll do some or all of the above on suggestion.  Not by nagging, either, not your job.  Or you can play into and validate the self-victimization.  Your call.[/quote]
I’m the PP, and my dd is definitely not doing any woe is me type stuff. She’s working her tail off but is trying to look at the big picture and figure out what teams to try out for next summer. She’s mad at only herself that she didn’t try out for YJ or any MD teams last summer and doesn’t want to make the same mistake again. [/quote]That's great.  I was responding to your comment that she wishes she had tried out for BLC because she feels the next 2 classes are locked down for Capital. From them, I suppose? That is incorrect, and it were me I wouldn't feed into it.  Capital hasn't been chosen, not anywhere close to the same as bumping onto a MD team.  YJ I'm not sure.  10%.  Weight room.[/quote]
