Good post cdmx5,......We all know how many games are played on a weekend during travel season, and yes I've seen a few girls who can carry a team, but for the most part, High School season is sort of like tournament finals every day. You don't want to give any team a chance to beat you, so you play hard evry day. It seems easy to say it's just one game, but 3 or 4 games a week adds up. I think a staff with an "Ace" or "Workhorse" with solid relief or someone who can take control of some non-league games is essential to the ultimate success at year's end. It's not just the physical toll you need to take into account, but also the emotional toll.
