Let's just say that the best 9 from the school are not on the field or the team. Some of them still play just not HS ball. I have seen one bad pitching outing actually take the player out of the rotation for the rest of the season, and actually told (heard by witnesses) that he will never pitch at this school again. This was the No 1 or 2 pitcher as an underclassman on JV and the 3 or 4 when he came up to varsity. Now the player will not play his senior year. This is only one example of how the coaching staff "black balls" a player and gets rid of them before they turn seniors. This also has a lot to do with are you in "the click" or not.

Yes Politics are rampant in HS sports no doubt.
