Baseball is ultimately a meritocracy. When facing choices regarding level of play, the higher you reach, the less likely you are to get the PT you want. If you are really honest about your skills, you should know your odds.

NOTE: HaverSon just finished this process. After four years, he had started more games than any player in school history at any sport, but no promises were ever made.

In regards to Haverford baseball beating the bushes, I doubt many DIII schools carry players from as many states or from as far away. In '06 I think they had only one player from PA, but at least 14 other states represented, plus of course, France. <s>
