They are decent, but bring in ringers for tournaments and let the regular kids sit. They also only bat 10 but keep a large roster.
Our son plays for Stags and none of this is true in our experience. We have 12 on our roster and have never brought in a "ringer" for a tournament. Some of the kids on our team will play with the other team at our age level for tournaments and vice versa but that's about it.

There is no mentorship or player development. They are last to sign up for nvtbsl or always register late so the outdoor practices are all over the place and so far away. The owners have a god complex and think they are king makers when 90% of their “college athletes” are paying double for college just for the privilege to play the bench on a D3 team. Would not trust anyone in that organization to supervise my children any way.
One team organization that I’ve begin to enjoy for my son is Koa Waves. Although the organization itself hasn’t been the greatest in the past, the commits almost always go to high academic schools like Cornell. The 2027 team has been amazing and they have one multiple tournaments and coaching is great.
Program is getting better and better.
I have never seen them in any tournament, even the ones at Patriot Park.
What tournaments do they play?
Also, Cornell doesn’t list any 2022-2025 commits that were recruited from a Waves team.

I see 21 on their roster.
