Many of the kids in the New England area do a post grad year at a private prep school. I'd imagine that eats into the number of Juco programs up there.

I am curious about this. Can you say more?

Like, why would a post grad year be popular in one area of the country but not others? Is it weather? The fact that more PG programs exist there? Do HS/club coaches encourage? Do colleges recommend it for certain players? Is it because the cutoff age for kindergarten is later in the Northeast so many HS grads are younger than their counterparts elsewhere?

Thanks.
