When you say top D1 talent playing other top D1 talent. It is VERY possible they play not D1 talent in pool play but after those 2 games you are playing against the other people that won their pool and they aren't going to be push over teams. They will be D1 talent playing against D1 talent.

I've seen the hopeful kids who come to HS baseball tryouts thinking it would be fun to play baseball in high school, but they are up against a legion of travel ball kids and they don't make the first cut. Several travel ball kids don't even make it through the first cut. I can't see a kid making his HS team without travel ball at my son's school.
