I've seen the same thing as Catcherdad in our part of the country too. Son's school stopped reporting game stats to Max Preps and the local media knowing that many opponents' stats are dubious and inflated. That practice, while laudable, puts a dent in local recognition by the local media (all area teams, etc) of kids at our school. But I agree with it even if that practice has hurt my son's visibility this and last year.

I would rather go that way than see things like the "7 hits in 5 PAs" stat. I have also seen the "2 HRs inside the park" after hearing a parent at said school tell me there were two throwing errors on both of the "HRs." Heard one school's coach has instructed scorekeeper that "the other team never makes an error when our team is hitting." rolleyes
