I would say that most HS coaches focus on team preparation and on trying to win, and do not focus on player recruiting, other than answering the phone when a college coach calls. In fact, I'm not aware of a single HS coach who prioritizes player recruitment. This may be a regional thing, but at least in Southern California I believe this to be the case. I have found this to be a good thing, and I've seen my son grow to love the "team" and "trying to win" aspect of HS baseball, something that is largely missing from travel/showcase ball.
