. Even if you get a shot and prove yourself, as we've seen the varying opinions, sometimes it's still the older player.
So what? That has nothing to do with continuing to prepare yourself, work hard, stay positive and be ready for your opportunity.
And in today's world, if you don't get the opportunity on the high school team, you will get it in Travel Ball, or in a Showcase. Any way you slice it, it still requires preparation & hard work.
Not arguing that, I was responding to Coach May saying it might be seen as coach speak and that he bases decisions on who puts in the work and is ready for the opportunity. I am a firm believer in always working hard. Your spot is never safe and there can always be someone better or who works harder.
