Thanks guys for the solid advice.

Obviously each school is different but our freshman team has 4 or 5 (can't remember which) 8th graders on the team every year. I'm not sure why they would eliminate some Freshman to guarantee a few 8th graders a spot, but that's how they do it.

My son wants to make the team very badly and I understand his desire to play. From my perspective, I'm hoping he makes the team but if he doesn't, we have workouts planned each week up until mid-May when our summer team gets rolling.

Thanks again for your insights.
