I would say the Blue team will be fine, the Orange won't break top 80.
Someone a long time ago asked what you needed to do in advance of Capital tryouts to put you on the short list. The answer is clear 1) Play for Pride (Katie...or whoever runs the program now) can't retain talent once they hit HS and 2) attend SSSA where Kathy Jenkins throws her weight around and gets her sub-par SSSA girls offers.
If true, why would anyone at this level want their daughter to play on a team that has sub-par players who did not earn their way on the team?
