beanball Posted January 12, 2010 Report Posted January 12, 2010 Does it matter what high school you play for as long as you play select? Are some high schools better for baseball players than others?
Critter Posted January 12, 2010 Report Posted January 12, 2010 IMO If you want a good Baseball program you pick BC, LCM, Nederland, and PNG.....Around this area.

Are some high schools better for baseball players than others?[/quote]Now beanball, I'm not picking on you specifically, but I will use your post to start the debate anew...Does the perception that select ball is of more importance than the high school team you play for, feed into the belief that select players are more "important" than the guys that aren't select? Does this diminish a team's cohesiveness? Maybe, the question should be...does it matter which select team I play on, as long as I am a member of my high school's baseball team? Right now, beanball makes it seem (though unintentionally) that you can "shop around" for a high school that will add to your baseball resume...It is entirely possible that beanball is moving into the area, and wants to know which schools have the best baseball "traditions". But the way the question was worded made me wonder...
beanball Posted January 13, 2010 Author Report Posted January 13, 2010 Yes, we may be moving. I have a talented baseball player, but, don't want to pick a school based on their baseball program. We pick our schools based on academics. A few of our academic choices do not have strong baseball programs. My concern and question is, if I can't rely on the school baseball program to be an avenue for my child is it "enough" to just have Select baseball as an option? In a perfect world, I would find a school with great academics along with a strong baseball program.

westend1 Posted January 13, 2010 Report Posted January 13, 2010 If he is as talented as you say, he should probably go to Westbrook. ;) ;D

At Brook, you just need to stay in the honors classes, and the education is as good as you get anywhere. If this was just a joke, sorry, I missed it. ;)

gastephenson Posted January 18, 2010 Report Posted January 18, 2010 you are corrected. Unless the parents signs off on the form at the beginning of the school the students face can not be shown.
