Reply to "cutting lettermen"

I'm a firm believer tha there are way too many varsity letters given to kids on a high school baseball team. There should be a minimum of innings played or pitched. Too often, a kid gets a letter because he is a "team" player. Never gets off the bench but he cheers well. I say give him a nice plaque for his wall, but don't give him a varsity letter.

If you gave him a letter last year, you should keep him until he graduates.

If he doesn't belong on your team as a senior and you gave him a letter as a junior, then you (in keeping him and giving hem a letter as a junior) made the mistake and you shouldn't take it out on the kid.
