make no mistake area code games are one of the elite for a young player to make.that said i know a player in my area that tried out for the area code games as a pitcher,pitched to the three batters,struck two out ground ball out.didn't make it.BUT recieved about twenty letters from schools interested.and that is the biggest thing in my opinion.what is it you are expecting from the tryout?just being invited from our area is a big deal.that same player was drafted two years later.it's the end result that is important,haed to see that now but you will.keep working hard it will pay off.
