I understand that Rudy and the other coaches want teams from out of state. But I have heard alot of people on here complain about players going out of state to get better exposure. Couldnt Stingrays, Lasers, GAPSS, etc. help this along by promoting OHIO softball, and giving preference to OHIO teams or am I being too short sighted here. Does bringing in teams from PA, IN, that stinky place up North, etc. bring in more college coaches. All of these tournaments are College Exposure Tournaments, I just think they should help promote OHIO players. Daughter has played in all of these tournaments and was part of this great organization (Stingrays).
Just asking a question...
This would seem like a good idea for Ohio, but I have read on here the complaints about Ohio teams not getting in tournaments like Compuware, so if you want a top notch showcase like this one is you must take the best candidates that apply. The hard part is some of the teams have some turn over, so determining who has what before they really have done anything I'm sure is tough. You have to use coach reputation and past season performance (individuals and team) as a guideline. For instance if a top pitcher changes teams the new team now is more of a candidate. There is no perfect team list, even the NCAA basketball selection always has some worthy teams left out and that is after a whole season of results to measure with.
